 Fun until it breaks November 12, 2008
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is an awesome but not particularly durable helicopter. I bought mine today and it was very hard to get the hang of... it kept hitting walls. When I thought I'd cracked it after about an hour of flying, it veered into a curtain, smacked into the ground and one of the rotors partly snapped. There being no suitable spare parts, it is now totally out of control whenever I try to fly it. Having bought several Silverlit helicopters, all of which have broken in the first three days, I would not really recomend getting this unless you have a large flying area, are very experienced, have spare parts or enough money to buy another.

Fun once you know how to use it, but is very hard to get the hang of. Would probably be too hard for young children - and too dangerous! Good for grown men who like their toys!
 A Pleasure to Demonstrate After Some Practice to Gain Skill October 30, 2008

I can recommend this model without reservation. It is worth taking the trouble to learn to trim the controls for ease of handling in the air. It helps if you have some experience of flying model helicopters such as the simpler 2 channel Picoo or even a simulator on a PC. Once control sensitivity and orientation is mastered, this model is quite easy to fly.
Landings are tricky with the narrow wheelbase and will invariably tip over sideways, except on smooth shiny surfaces.
I've only had this toy for a couple of hours at the point of writing this mini review but I felt sufficiently enthused to report quickly my findings.
Great fun at a bargain price September 5, 2008

I'd been hanckering after a RC helicopter for a while, and one with at least 3 channels, and this fitted the bill on a special offer price of a little over 20 quid.
6 AA batteries are required for the control unit, from which the helicopter cahrges. It needs about 30 minutes for a good 10 minutes flying. Not pictured on the sales images are the two clear plastic stabilising fins which help it stay stable, but they do work,the front one can be removed when experience is gained.
Overall, after the helicopter is trimmed, stable flight can be easily achieved, but it does struggle near the ground as its own draft makes it unsteady. While the body is only polystyrene, its quite robust surviving many crashes into walls at hitting the ceiling. It does often just lose it's way and plummet without any obvoius reason.
Overall a good introduction to RC Helicopters.

I bought this as a birthday present for my husband and have had great fun watching him trying to master the art of flying!! We've both been amazed at how the helicopter has stood up to the number of crash landings and bouncing off walls and ceilings. Now he's getting the hang of flying it's been quite interesting to see how the helicopter works and responds to the controls, such as hovering for instance.
Highly recommended; in fact, it looks like his work mates are starting to drop hints to partners ready for Christmas.....
