Best RC Helicopter for beginners.
Practically nothing to do to get it to hover, very little adjustment was necessary to keep it straight in flight and everything is included except the 8 AA batteries for the remote.
No spinning like other helicopters, a bit slow with the forward movement but that's okay with me.
It is also quite big for indoor - unless you are probably in a Gym or some kind of big hall - does very well in the back yard if there isn't much wind.
Battery life is about 15 minutes on a full charge.
Overall a decent helicopter for the price.
Do a proper search before buying as the same helicopter is available from different sellers for as much as $30.00 more!

This review is from: Double Horse 9072 3 Channel 2 Blade Chinook Tandem RTF Rc Helicopter (Toy)

This 3 channel Tandem helicopter speaks for itself. Great attention to detail has been given for its scale like features. Overall the Chinook's performance is stable, little to do to get it hover. The description was a little misleading as quoted, "Transmitter:Standard 4 CH(including training switch and simulator port); * Mix controller:4 in 1 mix controller(W/gyro,mixer,ESC,receiver); * Servo:(8g,1.3kg.CM,0.12s/60°)", This is not a 4 CH Transmitter as it is a 3 CH and there are no training switch and simulator port along with there is no servo as this helicopter does not come equipped with swash plates. That needs to be removed from description. None the less it is a great deal for such an excellent heli. Keep in mind this is no toy even at the 3CH level as it will generate lots of air movement. For the price and especially fast delivery from seller-Battery Superstore, you can't go wrong!

This is a fun toy but needs some serious training time to fly
don't fly outdoors until you het it mastered in a
big indoor space... The slightest breeze is a challenge.
The landing is what I had the most trouble learning
small moves on the controller are big moves to the helicopter
enjoy
