This is nessasary! Vernon Kerswell needs to give all Money Back! IGG should held responsible for this scam!Johannes Molzahn (Berlin, 2022-03-09)
#16
Even though I have been refunded, I still see the evidence of lies, stalling etc by Vernon Kerswell, and his alter ego Lidia on IGG. The existing 7988 backers are being mis-led. The project is three years behind, and the "in talks with Indiegogo" has been used for months now to buy time, but for what?Craig Meads (New Plymouth, 2022-03-09)

IGG has a reputation for backing then refusing to stop this type of sleaze on their platform. By signing this I am shedding light on the complicit behavior they are frequently accused of. Do the right thing. For once.Thomas Lienhard (Milford, 2022-03-10)

This is clearly a scam and IndieGoGo should do something. Credibility is on the line...Vincent Roy (Québec, 2022-03-10)
#25
Indiegogo remains complicit in this scam by allowing Extreme Fliers to continue to gaslight the remaining backers. No response by Indiegogo reflects a lack of dedication to the thousands of backers of not only this project, but every project on the platform.Jason Clark (Louisville, 2022-03-10)

Been waiting for this scammer to refund for more than two years now... VK a.k.a. Lidia is a liar.Uwe Kreibaum (Mainz, 2022-03-12)

I am a backer. Without a refund, which we are entitled to under IGG terms - I have most likely lost a lot of money on two drones, spare batteries and a controller … all non-existent items at this time. This product was clearly not production ready as claimed almost 3 years ago and is not in production now or anytime soon !Put simply …. We were lied to and deceived so the campaign owners could take our money !
Fraud is defined as
“ wrongful or criminal deception intended to result in financial or personal gain .”
So this situation fits the definition of fraud.
I also do not think fraudsters should go unpunished or “win” with this kind of scam !
IGG also derive income from this campaign as the facilitating platform …. They are publicly claiming to be trying to help but we cannot see anything tangible ….. I’d like some answers.

We were lied too! When I gave my contribution. Vernon promoted a "design completed drone" "guaranteed" delivery by June 2019. 3 years later we keep getting smoke and mirrors.This is unacceptable in a market that moves quickly. Even if the promised drone Is delivered now, it will be hilariously outdated. As I have purchased 2 other drones since I was taken advantage of with this scammed campaign!

The Micro Drone is shown as a prototype which I believe is against IGG T&Cs. I have requested a refund but was fobbed off with ‘we’re nearly into production, you’ll get you drone soon’. This was last year. The last update was that they are modifying the design of the battery. So still a prototype.Dave Dyer (Eastleigh, 2022-03-19)

Indiegogo and the owner of the project are in breach of contract and need to refund all users.Kurt Kluth (San Clemente, 2022-03-20)

This is fraud and the the company has stolen millions from peopleAndy Hilbourne (Cardiff, 2022-03-24)

I am a former backer of the campaign, I only „bought“ one drone and received my refund from Indiegogo in the first wave. Nevertheless, I want to clarify which roles Extremetoys and Indiegogo play when they let the backers hang between the ropes.Holm Ström (Hamburg, 2022-03-24)
#54
It has been a fraud from the beginning, promising the world but delivering nothing, downgrading all specs along the way- Asked both IGG and Microdrone for a refund several times for more than a year, only to be bombarded with more lies and lies. IGG is complicit in this, they did squad when we warned them long ago...never ever will i back something on IGG again.Peter Van Diessen (Monsampolo Del Tronto, 2022-03-24)

This campaign has misled backers into contributing with a guaranteed delivery within 6 months of start and a production ready model. That was three years ago.Since then there have been clear and calculated delays along with excuses.
These current delays are a constant cut and paste spam from the campaign owner using the identity of another team member in order to retain funds for as long as possible.
I was lucky enough to have my well earned money returned to me via a small claims process, yet the campaign owner did try to offer a token refund which was refused.
For many months now the same cut and paste response has been given to backers who contributed on the now very empty promises, the excuse that they and IGG are in talks - yet IGG have not confirmed this.
It is time for IGG to show some allegiance to those who have lost money and address the serious and concerning way in which this campaign has been run.
Backers are owed this support as without them, IGG would not exist.

Indiegogo do not police the projects. They should ask him for the evidence including rental of production premises and wages to production staff and purchase invoices do materials.Shane Hanlon (Liverpool, 2022-03-24)

We have tried reconciling with the small number of people on this page but we have been unable to satisfy their requests and continue to post negative comments.

Vernon Kerswell owner and CEO of Extreme Flyers Inc. have scammed people ever since the Micro Drone 3.0 , despite his claims of success, he repeated the same formula by launching a campaign on Indiegogo that promised an amazing product that was ready to start production only to get people buying into this project, but it’s been clear that he was not ready then, nor ready now 3 years later to start producing anything promised. He must not get away with this scam anymorePolo Izquierdo (Toronto, 2022-04-22)

downgraded spec´s comparing to initial offer; product is not up-to-date anymore.Bought DJI Mavic Mini 1 in the meantime as replacement and ordered DJI Mini 3 now.
MD 4.0 is more than obsolete.

I feel that the project in question has been mismanaged and has burned through millions of dollars in 3 years with no results and radically reduces specifications from those promised in the before initial funding.Philip Greenawalt (Pearland, 2022-05-18)

I have a drone on order. The continued delays, and project changes lead me to believe this product is not nearly as finished as I was first led to believe, or the product designers, don't know how to manage their productFred Torres (San Jose, 2022-08-05)
#112
I have been lied to for nearly 4 years about the status of this project and have no use for or desire to receive the product i ordered anymore.
