Good Deal November 19, 2008 This thing is great for the someone above the age of 15, for being a 'toy' these blades spin faster than I would think, but as long as you are using your head you should be safe. I broke the tail blade, but it was an easy fix with some super glue, it works good as new now. It will probably take you some time to get use to it, I have been outside with it, but the way is flys inside I would bet you could have some fun with it outside. Great for a teenager.
Rotor broke off on first flight October 26, 2008 Onits maiden voyage it went up and went out of control. Found out after the crash lasnding that the rotor broke off and was unable to fix it since it was all plastic. PIECE OF JUNK!
Great 2ch Chopper September 10, 2008 This is not a highly maneuverable helicopter, this is not a "toy" for young children, and this is not designed to be wonderful, but it is meant to be cheap fun for those who love helicopters. What this helicopter is, however, is essentially a large Picoo Z for outdoor use. The quality of construction first appears weak, but upon many crashes, I have found it quite durable. Do not, however, rely on its durability only. In the hands of small children, it will break quickly. It is somewhat difficult to fly, but once it's trimmed, it can be surprisingly controllable (though not NEARLY as such as a helicopter of higher quality with more channels.) The trim knob is easy to adjust for left/right motion, and for forward motion, simply affix weight to the front of the fuselage. A small fishing weight or small change stuffed in the battery compartment will suffice. As for educational value, this is by no means a highly educational toy. However, it does teach basic helicopter controls and how to properly take care of precision equipment. I've bought many RC helicopters for under $100, and so far this is the only one that:
- Can be flown outdoors - Can fly into the wind. - Has cheap, user replaceable parts. - Can be flown indoors (though I do not recommend, especially until accustomed to the controls) - Isn't primarily styrofoam. - Has very far controllable range.
If you want something that is very controllable and stable, I HIGHLY recommend a proxyflier instead (Bladerunner, Micro Mosquito) as they are very stable, though only indoors. If you want a very cheap, fun helicopter that can handle outdoors, looks like a real helicopter, and is large, this will be very suitable on a tight budget.
Complete waste of money September 2, 2008 This thing cannot hover in one place without spinning. The trim is located on the heli so you cannot adjust it while flying. In other words it's adjust, fly, land, and repeat until you get close. Also this thing flies anywhere it wants, you cannot control where it goes. You can only control direction of rotation and up/down. This is especially bad because you cannot fly this indoors because it's erratic, but you cannot fly it outside either because a little wind causes it to drift out of the range of your transmitter
Mine lasted for a couple weeks then the tail motor died so it could not be flown anymore without spinning out of control. The only good thing about it is it's very durable and it charges in only 3 hrs while giving you about 10 minutes of flight time.
Don't waste your money on this, instead get the 3ch 735 series which is a micro heli and VERY stable.
Fragile and weak plastic structure July 1, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Out of the box and ready to fly? If you like going in one direction. It is adjustable but there is another trick that cost you more time. Any impact against the rear rotor and the mainshaft will snap right after the bolt assembly. This was a mistake from the beginning. I now buy pre tested from the Factory helicopters with aluminum frames and landing pads. It is well worth spending an additional [...] dollars to have a quality helicopter that flies correctly right out of the box.
