I LOVE this Helicopter!! first of all, it's blue, , second, it NEVER BREAKS!! no matter HOW many times I crash it, it just flies right up again! although it could have a little more battery life... the plusses make up for the minuses! one of the more significant flaws is that you cannot really make it fly-say- across the room. (no forward/ backward control) also, it does NOT get tangeled in hair easily! overall, great for kids and beginners.

Yes the body is plastic. But the stuff for the tail is still paper which disappoints me because it rips easily. It is alittle heavier and has alittle less flight time. But i still prefer this one over the styrofoam ones because it flies pretty fast.

I bought the green version of the Air Hogs Havoc Heli and have had fun since the beginning. Trouble comes depending if you live in a high altitude city, it won't go further than 4 feet high and the battery lasts only about five minutes. I had the opportunity to fly it on sea level altitude and it worked excelent with better flying height and battery lasting for more than 15 minutes. I think it makes a difference but it is still very fun to fly it and have troubles fighting with my dad who wants it too. (Santi, age 10)

Yes that's Air Hogs Havoc Heli 10th Anniversary Edition is plastic. All you have to do is trim the havoc heli which took awhile, you have to press L till the turning stops same thing with R.After that you can easily fly the plane.You probably want to put on the aluminum stickers on for a different proformance,mine started crashing right away.So if you have to by a present this is great for someone who has flown a couple of air hogs planes!

This little helicopter is an inexpensive entry machine. With practice, relatively good control can be mastered. It is very light-weight and survives many nasty crashes. Fortunately, it will not damage walls, furniture, pets or people. It must be flown indoors. Larger spaces with little content are ideal: garage, large living room, gym, etc. Flight time is around 10 minutes and charges around 20 minutes with built-in charger in the remote.

This helicopter does not have a gyro and cannot not hover. It is balanced to always move forward. Control consists of up / down, left / right. It is much easier to launch by hand than to start from a stand-still due to prop wash. The tricky part is the control dynamics constantly change as the battery discharges. This means the flyer must constantly adapt to changing control responses. With practice, it can be mastered. As a rule, kids seem to do better than adults. This is mostly due to diligence and practice. Three and four channel helicopters are more expensive, but much easier to fly.

The two boys asked for this, they are having a ball with it. (so Far) I thought it was to flimsy when they opened it. Seems I was wrong.

We got this [...] for Christmas. He had wanted this for some time and was trhilled to finally get it. For the past 2 days it has been the focus for not only our youngest son, but his sister, bothers and cousins have all been taking turns playing with it. Now everyone else wants them. Luckily it came with extra rear propeller things because he broke the first one quickly while practicing flying without hitting walls. We found it best to fly it outside or inside where we have high ceilings. Not too sure how long it will last since it seems pretty delicate and our son is anything but gentle. Can't be that bad since it's already lasted 2 days with 6 crazy kids flying it, throwing it, touching it and fighting over it. One tip... took us a few minutes before we figured out the base unit needed to be turned ON in order for the helicopter to charge.

I liked the newer version of the airhog but I still question durability. Its ability to fly forward is another tough manuever.

We got this for a Christmas gift for a grandson. We thought we better try it out before we wrapped it. We never got it to fly straight even had my 23 year old son try it. I was one day pass the 30-day return.

This Helicopter is way better than the foamy ones. It is very easy to fly and it is worth buying this toy!
