Fun but learn on a cheaper one November 8, 2011
By Robert K. Mertz
Amazon Verified Purchase
Durability: Educational: Fun:
These small gyro helicopters are all very addicting and lots of fun to play with. They can be a little frustrating when you have to keep charging them but if you have a few of them then the fun doesn't stop since you can charge one while flying the other. Also be prepared to purchase lots of spare parts, especially blades and fly bars as you're going to crash this thing multiple times. If you're purchasing your first gyro helicopter I would recommend finding one in the $20 price mark and practice on that. Additionally, the missile launcher function on this chopper can be fun but be mindful of where you fire them as they can be hard to find in certain terrain.

A cow with a propeller compared to cyma 108 November 30, 2011
By Felix
Amazon Verified Purchase
Durability: Educational: Fun:
I owned the Syma 108 before I purchased this one. My review will compare between the two.Cons:1)Compared to Syma this one flies like a fat cow. Rotating left and right is very responsive but forward and reverse takes like 5 seconds to kick in after you move the control which is really annoying and prone to crashes. The altitude adjustment response is also poor.2)This one is much noisier. Sounds like a flying lawnmower.3)Also the left throttle used to control altitude is not spring loaded to throttle down when released like Syma which makes it harder to control the altitude. (A little workaround of tying a rubber band to the throttle stick and anchoring the other end on the bottom of the controller helped. This keeps the tension on the throttle in the downward direction, which automatically pulls the throttle down when you release. This helps control the altitude much better.)4)Almost double the price of Syma.Pros:1)Fires Missiles!Not so fun for my cat but super fun for me. I'm planing to modify the mechanism to hopefully squirt water instead.I wish the Syma had this option.2)Well constructed. The materials used to make this one feel more solid then the Syma.

Great RC Helo January 1, 2012
By Kate
Amazon Verified Purchase
Durability: Educational: Fun:
This helo is a great buy. I bought the very similar Syma 107 also, and this helo is more fun to fly. It is a tad harder to fly than the Syma due to the throttle not being spring loaded, but once you get used to it it is better because you can set the throttle to hover and you don't have to continue to apply pressure. Other benefits over the Syma are: turbo boost that increases speed 2x, and it shoots missiles. They actually project to about 15 feet. Pretty cool. Also, this comes with 2 extra rotors (Syma doesn't include this) in case they break, but you would have to crash very hard to break these. It is very durable, even on hardwood floors.

Unstable.
This little helicopter is just to small. Unable to get it to stabilize and not rotate with the rotors. Bought two of them and they both act the same way. Read more
