Ownership verified by DX Good choice

Involvement: Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week

Price: starstarstarstar
Ease of Use: starstar
Build Quality: starstarstarstar
Usefulness: starstarstarstarstar
Overall Rating: starstarstarstarstar

Pros: It is an agile and fast helicopter. The overall product quality is good. Blades have screws holding them to the main pole, so they can be bent when you hit a wall, thus making it very resistant (different from the picture!). I removed the transparent plastic from the tail, so it can fly faster forward. Battery time is good, I could fly it for 9 minutes. Recharge can be as fast as 10min (reduced fly time). Remote control batteries can last several flights, typically holding for a whole day.

Cons: The remote control has a screw which has to be removed to replace the batteries, thus making it inconvenient. The batteries compartment is not that good: sometimes if you shake the remote control, it will turn off / turn on. The bottom stick at the end of the tail is very fragile, and broke at the very first flights. No big issue there, since it can still fly perfectly.

Other Thoughts:

Bottomline: Recommended, as it actually does what it is supposed to. This is NOT a beginner model, not only because it has 3-CH, but it is also very responsive to the controls. It takes several flights to get in the hang of it. After you learn, you can even land it over a desk with no problem. Excellent price too.

Overall Rating: starstarstarstar

Pros: The big pros is the build quality. This helicopter can fly for hours and crash many times but there is nothing damaged. That's nice cause some helicopters are really instabile and are damaged when they're falling once on the ground. I've got it now a week or 2 and the helicopter isn't damaged at all.

Cons: The big con is that you need much batteries. You cannot use rechargeable batteries, and that's a pity cause this helicopter is using six batteries and you have to buy new batteries many times, that makes the helicopter expensiver.

Other Thoughts:

Bottomline: It's a nice helicopter for this price and take it if you like. Buy it, the price is nice and try it!

Pros: Este heli es muy fácil de controlar, cualquier persona que tenga nunca lo voló antes de control de la poder. - Calidad construida realmente hermosa, agradable. - Carga muy rápidamente - Tiene el vuelo posterior/delantero más rápido que he visto nunca en los mini helis 3ch de las tesis

Cons: ¡el cargador de TXinbuild es INÚTIL y matará su batería del lipo rápidamente!! Como el otro revisor dijo y los meassures I del punto de los hes encendido también….El tx cobra la matanza de Lipo excesivamente que muy rápido (10 -20 cargas) YO ENCARGA tan EL MANUAL de la BATERÍA de LIPO DE MI CARGADOR APROPIADO.

Other Thoughts: Tan realmente si usted no tiene ningún otro engranaje del rc expecially si usted no tiene un cargador del lipo no compra este heli… y digo este solamente becaue del TX. ¡No puede cargar el lipo que lo mata correctamente en un hurrry esto es de otra manera 3ch el heli más atractivo i volado!!!

Bottomline: I am an RC heli addict and believe me when i say to you this is a class heli if it wasn't for the tx and it s faulty charging i would import these to sell to newbies
Because this can really be flown ..in all directions with purpose ..
