Lots of fun - seems to fly better than the regular sized CX helicopter. Runs smooth too & makes rooms feel much bigger, since the chopper is smaller. Check out the "Vapor" airplane too - I got to fly one in a room I would have never guessed you could fly a plane in!

These things are bullet proof. My wife liked mine so much that she ended up getting her own. They have been bounced off of the walls, ceilings, and refrigerator more times than I can keep count - and they still fly as good as the first flight out of the box.

The only thing I did to them was turn the "elevator" pushrod in a few times to get more forward speed.

My brother has one, the only issues so far are minor.

1) the transmitter crapped out after only about a week, so he bound it to another radio.
2) the battery charger acts very funny if the alkaline batteries get too low.
3) I worry about charging any LiPos at 3C which is how they get the battery charged in such a short time.

I have one...and my cat likes to chase it and knock it out of the sky. He has only broken the blade on it once...and it was the little knob in the middle that the fly bar connects to. I swapped it around and works just as good as new. I have also replace all the black parts with glow in the dark parts..it is very cool.
