Review Content The product did not work! We have been unable to use the product. It would not work even with brand new batteries. Very dissappointed! My husband and son loved their helicopte I gave this as a gift to my husband and son, and they were both very excited to have recieved it, and had it flying around the house in no time. It seemed to be pretty easy to fly, however; t the one flying them! I am delited with this product.. things that are great about it Good beginner Helicopter This is one of my many helicopters. This product is a step up from the miniature palm size infrared helicopter that can only be flown indoors, with limited speed and range. Its fairly easy to control, and since it uses radio frequency, it can be flown outside. The gyro is very snappy and makes the control very easy. It can be flown outdoor but any type of wind will blow it away. I would recommend for any beginner or intermediate pilot. Flight time is about 8-10 minutes. Overall, very good helicopter for its price. pretty good the battery did not stay up for very long. It lasts 3 minutes which is not very long to fly and then have to charge it for 1 hour. Not impressed with the very short battery life This is so much fun It flys ! Great product in every respect I have about 20 remote control helicopters. I would rank this one in the top three. The product description sells itself short. It has a great battery life, it is very responsive and can take some pretty good crashes and come right back. The new gyro feature makes a big difference. However, if I was the designer I would provide more tork in the rear blade to go against slight wind. Also, the product description may want to provide the potential buyer how many "knots" wind the device is effective in also provide hints such as serpantine the copter on return in wind. Again, for the money this is well worth it. May want to let the customer design their own copter (rope lift) (rockets) (camera). Provide pin striping and customization decal to personalize device with intials, symbols, etc. looking forward to flying weather So far, tried in my living room, have discovered that the easy mode setting makes a big difference. No problems so far, though the less than well translated instructions could stand to be redone. U ever thought of flying a real chopper? This prepares my mind on what it could entail to own a real chopper; from fuel up to parking. Tons of Fun! I bought this for my husband as a Valentines Day gift. He loves it!! The battery only lasts 6-7 minutes, but I think that is typical for this type of "toy". love flying heilcopter flying in the park Solid Product-Best RC Heli Ive Had Solid product. I had it flying about 70 feet in the sky and was about to crash into a tree so I cut the power. It dropped straight into the street. It still worked great. Really easy to fix and find replacement parts online (not expensive either). Best one Ive had.
