Not a bad starter R/C helicopter
Not bad for a starter R/C helicopter. I'm surprised how durable it is, as the first few flights I had getting used to the controls, I crashed it multiple times into the ground and a wooden fence. I did fracture a little bit of the body cover, it has stood up to the crashes so far. I've gotten about 20 or so flights total in, and crashed most of them, but yet its still very much in tact and working great. So, it has my seal of approval for durability. Battery life isn't great, but other than that, it really is worth the money. So, for a intro into the R/C helicopter venue, this is the one I'd recommend. Hope this helps.

Great helicopter for intermediate flyer
We bought this for my son for his 11th birthday. He loves it but is still having challenges perfecting the controls. It does bounce nicely though!! It is still flying fine after falling on the roof, getting stuck in a tree and hitting the bricks on the house. Probably a little too advanced for a beginner, but definitely a nice helicopter!

overall fun when trimmed right
for the price it is quick, agile, responsive. it took a while to trim out the side to side motion because the controls weren't enough. I had to adjust it by hand but the instructions were very clear. overall I'd definetely recommend
