The Apache mini remote control helicopter is the Rolls Royce of the mini helicopter market. We have tried and tested 6 different mini copters and have found this one to be the most stable and easy to fly. We also found that after the initial charge (from the remote control unit - supplied) that it was possible to charge the helicopter for just a few minutes which allowed a reasonable amount of flying time. The stated times are 8 minutes flying from a full charge. The Apache comes in three colours: Jungle camoflage as per photo, desert (sand colour) and standard camoflage. Please state your preference - however we cannot guarantee your preferred colour but will do our level best!
