4.0 out of 5 stars Amazing for price, but be careful!, June 13, 2007

= Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars 

This 4 channel RC helicopter is in my opinion the best out there for under $100. Response from the controls is snappy and precise once trimmed correctly. Durabilitiy has yet to be attained, as I would see most people buying this particular model would be relatively new and inexperienced to the world of RC Helicopters

Battery lasts for about 10 minutes and takes 40 mins - 1 hr to charge fully
Tail rotor is cosmetic only, but still cool
Indicator on transmitter for batter power, and led on helicopter for battery life left in li-ion battery(sometimes hard to see)


Pros-
Price
Speed and control
Looks
BEST BY FAR IN CLASS FOR TRIM ADJUSTMENTS! CANT BE BEAT FOR PRICE!

Cons-
Somewhat lacking on durability for an entry level helicopter
Notched throttle provides lack of precise control for hover flight, unlike a spring tension throttle (Only on occasion however)

This review is from: RC Apache Helicopter 4 Channel Remote Control Ready To Fly (Toy)

This product is great for beginners to intermidate fliers. Very responsive controls. Plenty of power. Battery lasts 10 to 15 minutes depending on how you fly it and the conditions which you fly it in. Ok for flying indoors if you have lots of room and high ceilings. I would recommend this product to anyone looking to get into RC helicopter flying. The charger indicates when the battery is fully charged and protection is built in to cut off charging when battery is fully charged. Alot of simular products don't do that. Comes with extra rotor blades. I have smacked mine on furniture and the ground alot, it keeps on going. Still flying on original rotor blades. I also have the 2 channel version of this same chopper hard to control I would not recommend that model. The 4 channel is far superior. It's worth extra money for the amount of controlability that you get from the 4 channel. Not to mention this model looks cooler as well. If you buy this product have fun and fly safe.

1.0 out of 5 stars What a piece of junk....., August 7, 2007

= Durability:1.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars 

I have a few RC Helis and a simulator. Ordered this and promptly crashed within 10 seconds. Baffled, I ordered replacement blades and stabilizer bar. Next try, very carefully started to fly after physically checking everything out. RC controller went to full throttle even though trims and stick were at zero. Immediately turned the controller off but motor kept running. Reset, started again, hovered for 5 seconds and then motor went to full throttle without me touching anything and crashed. Electronics are junk. Too bad because it could be a fun toy to play with rather than my Esky birds.
