I have been flying this around for a few days now and advice to anyone buying one, make sure you also order spare rotor and tail blades and also order up some training gear for this heli, again Buzzflyer has a set for this model. Also make sure you fly this in a big area at first! You can look through YouTube and see many videos on there of people flying in small rooms, but trust me you wont stand a chance until you are comfortable with flying it and the quick corrections you need to keep this tiny heli stable. It looks so stable on the videos people have taken, but for a newbie it certainly is a steep learning curve! I shall write more and with some pics of things which I have noticed about parts which break and look weak to me. Also the battery runs down flat very quick so you will also need spare batteries. Great fun though 🙂

Just got myself one of these tiny micro helicopters, these things are amazing! 4 channel r/c and hence they handle very much like the bigger electric helis do.
There are loads of small heli’s around, but these are not like the cheaper toy ones out there, please be aware of that if you get one, they are quite difficult to fly if you are new to r/c helicopters.
Hence in the picture, you can see I backed mine into a wall and broke the tail blade 😉 Opps
Great fun though!
I would advise to anyone new to these, to turn down the pot on the receiver under the front cover, so there is not so much movement in the servos, and turn it back up when your skills get better.
These are quite difficult to get , there are a few online dealers, but search the net about them , as some out there did not give a very good service, either that or order direct from china on ebay.
