The remote control helicopter is the toy of the year for 2007. Seeing is believing with these brilliant little beasts. Not only are they easy to get to grips with but they are durable enough to survive non stop crashing whilst you are perfecting your technique.
The manufacturer states that a 30 min charge gives you 10 minutes flying time but I found less charge was necessary. Also the charging is from the control unit which takes 6 AA batteries so you can take it with you and not have to keep plugging it in the mains. These batteries will last for days of continual use. Has a range of 30 metres.
They fit in the palm of your hand and can be comfortably flown in quite small rooms. I learnt to fly in the kitchen!
Serious fun for all the family but good luck getting it back from Dad.
