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.

I bought one for my 12yr old son. It's a little hard to try to get fine tuned in order to hover, but once you tune it, it flys really well. Just wish there is more battery power then 9 minutes. 12 year old waiting almost to 2 hours for full charge, and then only get 9 minutes of flight... But still, overall pretty satisfied.

I was eagerly anticipating flying this helicopter but first, I took it out if the box and it was nearly dead. Fine; I charged it. Then when I tried to fly it, all it did was spin. It seems very complicated and has too many buttons and levers. I did not return it because it didn't seem worth the effort.

My 10 year old son purchased this and is having a blast flying it. The only thing I would like to see would be a replacement battery so you could have one charging while you fly.

This was a xmas gift and to replace a competitors piece of garbage. This is an awesome little toy, however the battery dies real quick.

I purchased two of these for my 10 and 17 year old boys. Well worth the money. But i would of liked more fly time on battery packs.

It responds quick the RC, easy to handle it but I would like the battery lasted more. It lasts about 6 minutes and the recharge takes more than 60 minutes. For Beginners it's ok.

Very easy to control and fun. Only thing I didn't like is the battery.

Gift for husband, flies great for price. Battery life is short, only 6 minutes

Great helicopter had hours of fun wish the battery lasted a little longer tho

This helicopter is a great easily controlled manuverable flying helicopter.Just wish the battery lasted longer for flying time.But besides that great product for the money.

Fun to fly, but a little disappointed in the battery fly time compared to recharge time.

This was a gift which was really appreciated. The distance of control was good and it has realistic maneuver capabilities. Only con is that it does not retain much of a charge. About 15 minutes per charge and charges with 115 outlet only.

Bought for my sons 5th birthday even though it says 14+ we couldn't get it to fly at first but somehow my son got it to work and can control it as long as there isn't even a slight breeze otherwise it goes off course. The battery life is only 8 minutes between 60 minutes of charging.

Easy to fly. Fun to play with. The kids love it. The only bad issue is the short battery life.

Relatively easy to fly due to the stabilizer and larger size compared to other smaller helicopters. However, battery life / flight time is rather short.

I thought this would be a fun item to fly, battery took forever to charge.

Great for beginners. Would love a longer battery life.

First flight I "hit through the cycle" (bounced off my 3rd story roof, hit a cable line, slapped a tree branch, bounced it out of the grass a few times trying to land it softly) and it's still going! Been through 3 charge cycles now, and as everyone else has pointed out, the charging time is bad. The battery life is best on a trickle charge however, so in the long term, it's for the best. But it sure stinks trying to play when it's dead in 10 minutes and you're done for an hour. Our weather changes by the hour here, so it's a bummer that we might get a 5 minute flight in one day. but it's a hoot!! I think it's pretty fast, and hovering over your head, it sure sounds like the "chop chop chop" of real helicopter blades! Throws a ton of air under it, and is NOT COOL INDOORS! My poor dog, ceiling fan, wall, fish tank, thankfully I don't own any birds!! It's good times, I would buy another one if I broke this one, but I think that's actually going to be a tall order, as I'm already getting the hang of this, half hour worth of flight time, on a 37 year old's brain mind you, it's not rocket science, it's r/c helicopter science!

I will not buy a other one no good charge for hours and only play with it for 30 min no good
