Any toy helicopter is just that. A Toy. I have the most difficult time managing my expectation when it comes to toys. This Cobra RC Heli met my expectations... looked good and flew to my ability. That being said my flying skills could use some work. This helicopter - however - is quite on point in what it delivers. A good product at a good price.

I was shocked with my first use of the Cobra Mini Heli. After a quick adjustment to the stabilizer controller it flies strait and even. You can easily fly it around the room or to specific locations unlike most toy copters. There is a forward and back button to control movement, and there is a joystick to control rotation that works well. If you ever find that the copter seems to pitch forward or backward oddly on takeoff and wont stop, just hold the opposite direction on the controller or hold the copter firmly while powering it up or down, this seems to re align it if need be. As mention this toy has surprising quality and abilities, definitely a recommendation for yourself or as a gift.

I've got a bunch of heli's and this one is the worst. Nice idea, but difficult to control ever for a relatively experience "pilot". Save you time and money.

I bought this for my boyfriend for Christmas. He loved it and initially it was a lot of fun. However, after less than two weeks, it was broken and would no longer fly. Don't waste your money.

I wrote to the company and they offered to sell me another one for 30% off. Really? Why would I want to waste more money on another one that's probably going to break as well.
