Overview
Charging over USB and flying by infrared, this green mini helicopter uses a built-in gyro to steady the aircraft in the air. It comes assembled with a spare tail blade and an English manual.
Two frequency options let two of them share a room, and the gyro helps with spinning. The limits are short flights, a transmitter that wants its own AA cells, and a title and description that count channels differently.
Who it's for
Living rooms and bedrooms with open air are where a palm-sized helicopter like this belongs, especially for a first flyer at the listed age. Outdoor pilots and anyone who wants quick recharges will be frustrated by the short flight and the long charge.
Pros and cons
- Built-in gyro stabilizer
- Spare tail blade included
- Two frequency options for pairs
- Low-voltage and over-current protection
- Short flight time
- Transmitter batteries not included
- Channel count differs between title and description
Performance notes
A gyroscope system adjusts for spin in flight, which makes the aircraft steadier and easier to control. The infrared link needs a clear line to the transmitter, and the small battery limits each flight to a few minutes.
