    We bought this for my son wondering how long it would take him to destroy it, glad to say it's still working. It's a sturdy product that my husband and he play with constantly.

    Bought this simply for fun, I am no professional RC pilot. Took it for its first flight and chopper seemed to not be able to hover in one spot without swaying to one side or the other. Chopper is difficult to control. Would not buy for a child as they will likely break it on first flight.

    The helicopter is very neat. My 5 year old son enjoys it more than me, even though he can not fully operate it.

    I bought in deal and costed me $40. it was worth buying actually but when we used it couple of times and it actually broke from the tail. Although we used in the grass, it broke. Felt like it was waste of my money.

    No lateral control

    My wife got me this for my birthday. This thing has no lateral control event though the manual says it should. The left stick does nothing else other than work the throttle. I have contacted the company and have not received any response from them. There is no way to file a warranty claim on their website even though their website states to "fill out warranty form at the bottom of the webpage". There is no form to be found. Customer service sucks so I would stay away from their products for that simple fact.
