5.0 out of 5 stars Unexpected fun!, July 2, 2010

This review is from: 3.5-Ch Metal Outdoor RC Helicopter S032 (Toy)

I have had this for 24 hours, crashed it into the roof, a tree, my dog, my girlfriend and countless pieces of furniture! This thing is Durable! Thick plastic pivot blades, a thick plastic nose shell and a Aluminum skeleton.

It takes about 30min to charge from a completely dead battery with a proprietary charger and flies for about 10 minutes outdoors and 15 minutes indoors. It can fly it 1 - 2 mph wind outdoors but because it doesn't pitch a lot (maybe 5 degrees in both directions) you are really just chasing it as it goes in the direction of the wind.

The Gyro is not a joke it really really works, yawing the unit by hand you can feel the individual blades slow to compensate and stabilize. Outdoors it really shows how well it helps keep the unit level. The control has a trim knob to keep the unit from spinning while hovering.

The controller itself feels really cheap and the decals placed on it are off center to a point where it was inhibiting the trim knob and required me to remove it.

So the only 2 real complaints about this RC is the lack of Forward and Reverse maneuverability, and the quality of the controller. Otherwise well worth $40, maybe my dog and Girlfriend will stop hiding soon :)

PS. For replacement Parts for this unit:

5.0 out of 5 stars Add A Part Missing From Syma S032, August 19, 2010

I Purchased The Syma S032 Thinking it would Fly Like My Syma S107. Well, at first I thought : "Hey This sucks!" It didn't fly like my S107. It Kept Trying to Go To The Right. No Matter what I did in trim it still would not lift off like the S 107. Until.... I took a long look at both Helicopters. On The Syma S 107 there are two ball link connectors and on the S 032 there is only ONE!! Well, I purchased a couple of extra parts and added the link...VIOLA!!!! It Flies as Perfect Now as The S-107. I suggest if you purchase this Helicopter, look it over when you get it and purchase the link if it is not there. The Manufacturer and Sellers, should take note and add that part for buyers. It's a cheap add on. (I suggest include it at no charge) And you will have as Happier Customer!!!

When i bouught this product for the first time, it did not work, but the Deron from BASAL enterprises was great. I sent an e-mail explaining the problem, he called me immediately and send me the return voucher to send the product back. The great customer service is that he did not wait for the damaged product to get back to him. He did ship a replacement for me on the same day i was sending the damaged one back to him. replacement came in withing three days right in time for my 8 year old's birthday. My son loves this one, they have been flying in indoors and outdoors. it works great, probably it might have went up to 100 feet in air. Ordered one more from Deron
