Remember to stay clear from wall because it kind of like attracted to walls. When too close to wall, it is like bee keep on hitting the wall.

You hit the nail on the head ! .....this thing seems to get "ground effects" from the walls !

Still wondering if this small heli is really that fun to have?

For those who have been flying it for awhile now, are you still enjoyin it? Or is it just a novelty thing which interest wear off very fast?

Hope to get some frank opinion, thanks.

ok.. i have got it to fly pretty fast forwards.... i stuck the stickers they provided + 2 small paper clips using scotch tape to the front.

Now it takes off like a bullet forwards.

I still have not got the directional control pat, yet. It's flying around pretty much where it wants to and generally is attracted to walls - some kind of tractor beam effect, I think.

I may have to remove one of the paper clips and halve it's weight, maybe.

Need a big open space to practice manouevring before I can be comfortable in a confined space like the office. A badminton court would be ideal!

For less than $40, .....this is quite worthwhile, but it does needs some getting used to esp' if you're coming from a "hobby" heli with its full and precise controls.

Generally I would say this is something you would bash around the house (or office) on a rainy day or in betweens those FF !

....It has the potentials to be as addictive as the "hobby" heli as shown by some of the guys in other countries who got them earlier than us in SG.

You can expect a HUGE interests in EP heli after those "begineers" are done with or as a result of this PiccoZ craze !

frankly.. i would not waste $40 on this toy heli.
Reason.. it just a toy.. once spoilt.. cannot repair/upgrade.. it goes to rubbish bin..

BUT my son saw it at metro last week and want it coz he said it cute , so after read this thread how easy it flies.. i bought one yesterday for him.

for me dat fail miserably trying to hover the dragonfly.. and really dampen my interest in heli...
i found this heli rocks.. i can hover it pretty good

once this heli done.. as Ghostfit said..i think i might go for another real rc heli to enjoy with my kid.

Errr.... No offence ! ....So you're saying this heli Sucks or this heli Rocks ???

[Super-Hornet]

I think what he trying to say is that:
-ve point => Just like any toy. Spoilt and u throw away. No repair.
+ve point => Can easily hover it.

Then whether is it Sucks or Rock heli.... That one I not sure what does he mean

[dirtdynamics]

Errr.... No offence ! ....So you're saying this heli Sucks or this heli Rocks ???

i think i can summarise for him
at first glance, the toy is is just a toy, not worth $40 but once he tried it out, not bad... so it ROCKS!!!!

haha.. seem like wat im trying to say is contradicting..

SH.. uve got my point..
if u give me a choice whether to buy a true rc heli, say.. a lama and $40 toys.. i would rather buy a rc heli.. even thou it will cost me 5 times.. (of coz have to save )

i bought this heli only after i fully satisfied after reading wat u guys think regards to its ability to fly.. (same goes to x-wing toy plane.. i read thoroughly b4 buying it)

overall i say.. dat this heli is a great toy coz its easy to hover/fly.. and i fully recommend it to others..

but i will think twice in buying any other heli/plane toys.. ie.. will not just buy from the shelves without any recommendation and good reviews.
