My New Helicopter

[DessoThumbs]

I've had it a couple of days. It's a blast to fly, and really easy to control.

Very cool! Wait until RW-1 (I think that is his screen name) sees this. Have fun.

I need one! I'd have hours of fun terrorizing my 3 cats. Yours didn't seem too bothered by it desso.

It's a Syma S107. Very stable and easy to fly. Got it from Amazon for 32.00 shipped. The only bad side is 40 minutes of charging for 5 minutes of flight. The cats were freaked at first but now pay it little mind.

CK, you'll love it. Google S107 forum for good tips on battery life and heli mods. Join up if you'd like.

That thing would freak out my birds, I'd have to take it outside or upstairs.

While I'd like to play with it I don't think I would want to own one. I really don't have time for it.

Nice toy though. Enjoy.

thats just too cool. might have to order me one

I reccomend opening the remote and unhooking the spring on the left joy stick that controls vertical movement. I find that it's easier to control with less up/down corrections and easier to hover. There is one screw in the charge cable compartment. In less than five minutes you'll be good to go, and you can easily change back if you don't like the great results.

I really don't have time for it.

Think it would slow your posting down?

I have one of those, my father-in-law brought it to me from Germany when they visited in the beginning of the Summer, easy to fly and a bunch of fun

That looks like a blast to fly.

I'm holding out for the Parrot AR Drone as can be seen at AR.Drone.com – Parrot Wi-Fi quadricopter. Augmented Reality games on iPhone, iPod touch & iPad

It uses BT and is controlled with an iPhone. I've asked if they're planning to have an Android version, but no reply.

This is one of my favorite R.C. videos, this guy has a ton of them, and this little puppy is Nasty!!!
