Remote Control Helicopter: Gyro Apache

Despite the good reviews I wasn't overly impressed with the Helicopter that I got for Christmas. Firstly the device needs 6 batteries, of course not included in the package, cant be found Christmas day :( Secondly no instructions included with the product.
Eventually get the thing started yet it hasn't enough power to get off the ground and repeatable goes around in circles on the ground despite spending a whole day charging the thing. Maybe I just got a dud, but pretty disappointed I must say.

I've had this for 2-3 weeks now and I absolutely love it! Great value for money and quite durable. I've flown it indoors and outdoors (unfortunately my friend flew it too high and there was a sudden updraft and it got stuck on the roof! - but we managed to get it back =) )

People at work loved it, and convinced them to buy one so we can have mini-tournaments and races. Excuse my Francais, but its Bloody Brilliant!!

Love this helicopter, was my first one and was fun to learn and fly.

woke up one day and cat chewed the wings up and it never flew rite again even with changing wing blades, just wasnt enough spares and i couldnt find anywhere to order new ones so had to bin it :( will buy one again when the price is right!

The first one I ordered was fine until about the 5/6th go when the rotator rod came off and I had to get a replacement. It's happened again so I am in the process of sending back and asking for a refund. It's a great gadget.....if only it would stay in one piece and work! Very disappointing.

Fantastic little machine, so responsive, very easy to learn suitable for all ages. Can also with stand some abuse from inevitable crashes. Buy buy buy

Nice chopper, flies and lands with ease after some practice. The lights are bright and make flying it a pleasure in evenings. A link in the description, to the authorized spares dealer would be much appreciated.

after purchasing this for a laugh i got it out of the box and flew it on the landing but scared it might break i caught the helicopter which is crash proof and the controller slipped out my hand and fell 5 foot, and to my surprise it lives so am impressed with that and also fly s well outside for an indoor toy, delivery was fast needs extra gyro rotors though overall fairly happy

I orded this for my child for xmas 2011
The first one did not arrive as it got lost in the post!
when the item finally arrived it was a great little toy to play with and very easy to fly. crashed it many times now and its still in one peace.
BUY BUY BUY!!! even at 24 pounds its a great price. I payed 14.99.
there are cheaper makes in the market that will cost you alot more than this.and ive had them all and this is by far the best money can buy

Doesn't take too long to charge
Can Take a lot of hit's n crashes
i bought me and my mate one and we could fly them right next to each other because of the different frequencies (but you have to set up away form each other)
All i will say is it's small and if your as stupid as me to try and fly it in your back garden at night time when it's windy, you will lose it. so don't be tempted to fly it in small, dark or windy areas. I bought mine when it was on offer and the only thing stopping me buying a new one is the price .

Overall a great toy! You can also turn lights on and off which is pretty cool.

got this for a christmas present for my brother and he loves it, he says it's super easy to drive and spends hours playing with it.
