Customer rating: 4 out of 5 stars dont expect long lasting novelty

for £12 you cant really complain, i noticed other reviews moaning about the poor charge cable and the fact that the helicopter is quite flimsy, just take it easy when pugging in the charge cable and you should b good, although mine hasnt broken yet i can see its inevetably going to happen but its not like you paid £150 for it. the biggest downside is definitly the fact you cant acctualy direct the copter, but like i said for £12 who cares. Good short term fun

I got my picooZ about 2 years ago as a present. I used it a lot then totally forgot about it for a year. Now its a permanent resident of the office where I work and I'm still using the original batterys in the controller. People complain that it isnt easy to control... its not the case.. persevere with the setup and take into account that you have to adjust how you control it depending on how much charge is left in the little thing.

Amazing fun and 20 minutes charge isnt a lot considering how long the charge lasts, how small and simple it is and how little it costs.

Id recommend indoor use only (even air conditioning ducts blow it all over the place)..

Excellent fun.

Very good little gadget for home or the office. Can't go wrong for £12. Once you have got the hang of the controls its is very easy to move around small spaces and bombard your co workers. Must have for anyone.
