« Pendant de nombreuses années, j’ai travaillé pour l’entreprise familiale de mon père et de mon grand-père, qui avaient inventé TIM, l’oiseau à élastique bien connu du grand public. J’ai mis alors à profit mes études d’ingénieur en Aéronautique, pour étudier le vol battu. Quelques une de mes réalisations ont été intégrées au jouet pour améliorer son vol. De nombreux prototypes, très performants mais un peu trop onéreux à produire, sont restés au placard pour préparer l’avenir. Durant toute cette période, j’ai rêvé de pouvoir remplacer l’élastique de l’oiseau par un moteur électrique et une batterie pour en faire un objet radio-commandable. Mais la gageure était de conserver le même poids, ce qui était complétement impossible avec la technologie d’alors. Jusqu’à l’apparition des téléphones mobiles miniatures… Les nouvelles batteries au lithium et les moteurs coreless crées pour les vibreurs, offraient de nouvelles perspectives ! Après quelques calculs théoriques, je découvrais que le rêve était devenu réalisable. Il restait un écueil de poids : réaliser un réducteur suffisamment compact et léger pour accoupler le moteur au système de battement d’aile. J’y parvenais finalement un soir de grande inspiration, de celles qu’on est jamais sûr de pouvoir renouveler, de celles dont on est bien incapable de remonter le fil. À partir de là, et au prix d’une conception sans concession visant à minimiser le poids de chaque composant drastiquement, le premier modèle CAO (100% virtuel) était né. La magie a voulu que le premier prototype issu de ce modèle ait volé magnifiquement, bien au-delà de mes espérances ! Une page de mon histoire était tournée. » Edwin Van Ruymbeke

If you have any problem what so ever, they will communicate with you and they will do anything to help you, Strong company that will go fare .I got a meta fly.
It fly well and really solid. Yes it is solid.
Garbage, inferior, cheaply made,over priced products. Backed the Bionic Bird (Metafly) and it never worked. Customer service were rude and useless. Waste of money.
Their costumer service staff is outstanding. They are courteous, professional, and very efficient. I bought a Bionic Bird for my nephew and reached out to Bionic Bird costumer service staff for support. I was taking away with their politeness and prompt efforts to assist me with my concerns. I would recommend the Bionic Bird to anyone, specially knowing first hand that they have an extraordinary support system behind their product. Once more, I'm truly impressed and grateful for their costumer service. In times were we can feel ignored by many companies, is refreshing to see real people standing behind their product. Bionic Bird - you guys have a great costumer service staff! Wishing you continue success! Ruben (Massachusetts, USA)
I've never seen a customer service that committed to help.
The service is really outstanding
The technology of the bird is amazing but due to the extreme light weight it can be a real challenge to control even in a minimal wind. It took a while to get it balanced properly for straight flight without constantly turning in circles making it even harder to control. Great product but make sure you are in a very wide open area with no wind especially when learning how to fly it.
Bionic bird is one of the most amazing ever! If you get the egg to charge it youre good to go for a 30+ minutes of flying since it allowes you to charge it 12 times (mine does) is super fun! Easy! And charging time takes 10 minutes when you charge from the egg! Literally nothing!!. Bionic bird is very safe to fly, it amazes everyone that sees it flying! This is a must have! It was given to me as a birthday gift and im in love with it! No matter how old or young you are this is all ages! I got the deluxed package and the ordered the egg and extra pair of wings/tail and it arrived in the mail way faster than expected! GREAT SERVICE BTW! id love to see a bigger version of it too!! XD
Amazing rc bird that is a pleasure to fly. Need a little time to get used to the handling but after practicing allows one to control very precisely the flight of the bird. Even looks and moves like a real one.
Great little machine, lots of fun. Unfortunately our local kookaburra also liked it, caught it midair and flew with it into the gumtrees, only after a long chase and many stones thrown did it release the bionic bird. Little damage, easily fixed.
I love my bird very happy with your service and bionic bird keep up the good work guys
My dog thought that it was a real bird and grabbed it by the wing. The wing didn't survive and so I ordered a new set. Hassel free ordering and it arrived without a problem. Love flying the bird.
What a fun toy! Everyone who sees the bird wants one. I
Constantly losing connection with the bird. Battery running out in 2-3 minutes, controls not responding adequately even when connection still strong.
Worst waste of money in a very long time
