WARNING! Avoid this DRONE scam - Micro Drone 2.0+ live event sales - PSA!

Hey everyone! This URGENT Public Service Announcement is necessary after a spate of complaints and accusations have been made towards Micro Drone owner Vernon Kerswell. We are being contacted regularly by disgruntled consumers who have purchased one of the drones made by Extreme Toys Limited (aka Extreme Fliers). The model sold, a refresh of a product produced in 2012 has proven to be useless and simply does not work. To add insult to injury, the owner Vernon Kerswell has not made good or even responded to these consumers. DO NOT BUY a Micro Drone at live events! Join Sean LIVE as he discusses how this scam works and why you need to avoid it!
As regular viewers will know, we have been exposing the sharp practices and bare face lies surrounding the Micro Drone 4.0 campaign. The campaign has been suspended by crowdfunding platforms around the world and is now more than 4 years late on delivery, all the time with creator Vernon Kerswell refusing to provide contractually owed refunds to backers.

I can't believe it. Wait, yes, I do, Vernon needs to be locked up.

[@El_Smeghead]

Vernon's only now selling it as "Build your own" because he doesn't know how to do it himself!

[@Geeksvana]

Genius 😂🤣... but sadly correct

[@johncarold]

LOL

[@y_i_fly6256]

Good job Paul! Assisting with the ending. Bravo 👏! Great video Shaun on letting people know about this scam. Every FPV builder knows that upset feeling when you can’t get a drone to work. But it’s devastating for a child. Too bad that large manufacturers of drone parts couldn’t get together and drum something up just for kids at an event. Kind of like Flight Test.

I'm one of customer of MD 4.0 every day I wish vernom will go to the jail

[@mikeselectricstuff]

July 2023 accounts for Extreme Toys Ltd show £400K in assets and £250K in the bank

[@DroneViewsMedia]

Congrats with your persistence, this is beyond cynical.

[@martyn11post]

I suspect the company accounts will be interesting

[@nxu5107]

Thanks for the umpeenth warning. Who wants to buy this when the Neo is available? And if they do fall for this then there is something wrong!

[@cgln8760]

i wonder if he is registered at companies house? edit - just checked and he is.

[@reworkfpv7359]

OH BOY Where can I get one of these?

[@justso1823]

Makes my £18 brushless motor S1S look even better

[@TheM0JEC]

I do wonder if you might be able to ask one of the disappointed families if you can have what they got at the show? I’d happily refund them the £40 just to see what is actually in that product. I’m sure your channel subscribers would be interested in it too

[@Geeksvana]

Hey! Great idea, and we have actually got one on the way. We have sent the child a drone sent to us from a manufacturer for testing. But it is one I know works well! Look forward to getting it.

[@Trevor_Fuss]

When will Vernon Kerswel cease his scams and go get a real job so he can pay everyone he has scammed back.
