We have been flying the Micro Helicopters in the office all day, they are very hard to break!! Been crashing them non stop. THe only thing that goes is the tail rotor but you can get spares and it comes with one.

Awesome fun!!

Paddy

Well Nicholas, make sure you file a full report on our Railway Enthusaist Clubs bulletin board or else the chairman will be most upset!

Billabong

Phil - put your colleagues tail rotor on back to front and see him struggle to 'trim' it back into a controlable state

Paddy

Me and a mate went through a few of these over the summer [alright, I crashed one into the top of a tree and one into a lake] but for £19.99 I just kept going back for more



Obviously only for outside but they're great fun in non-windy weather

foreigneRS

i never know with you mate, is that a genuine question or is it a double entendre about having anal sex with you?

i would normally take you, but i won't be going directly there or coming straight back afterwards and already have a car full. sorry.

Rippers

Got mine today.. the cats love it

Took a while to get the hang off but its really cool

JohnnyB

aye it took a bit of time to sort it out, I have found 2 wieghts on the front work the best.

slowpoke

2 weights on the front of what johhny ?

matt

Rippers

Nose of the copter I'm guesing whill make it travel better/straighter?

JohnnyB

if you have no wieght the copter tends to mostly hover, so with more weight you can fly it from room to room as it wants to fly forward.

900ss

You could always try fly this around the office
