This little RC helicopter is easy to control and fun to fly. My kids and I have been playing with it everyday since we got it 4 days. It recharges quickly for about 5 to 15 minutes depending on how long we've been with it. I think the initial charge was for about 30 minutes. The infared controller means no antenna which is great with small kids. The helicopter is very stable when hovering and very maneuverable in flight. We have crashed it several times, but it's very durable and nothing is broken. We have really been enjoying this RC helicopter. We highly recommend it!

I ordered both the Syma S107G, and a Diamond Force. They came the same day.
Charged and flew the Syma S107G first, and it was, and still is totally awesome.
Charged the Diamond, charger shut off in less than a minute,
Put it on the floor and took off. I trimmed it, but it changed within a few seconds, and kept doing that, yuk ! Then it lost power so I landed.
I charged it again and the charger shut off in less than a minute again.
My Syma only changes trim at the end of the battery charge....
I think the Diamond Force may be ok, it seemed to fly ok, but mine came with a defective battery I think. Now for the rest of the story...
Ultra Durable ? I don't think so... Compared to the Syma S107g, it looks very cheap and fragile. The whole airframe, tailboom included, is glued together, not like the Syma, which is like fine jewlery by comparission.
I contacted Amazon, and they sent me a shipping label, and I sent the Diamond Force back. Im buying...Read more

my order arrived this morning. the package was in great shape, no shipping damage.
Charged it for several minutes and it flew wonderfully.
the only thing i can complain about is the charge wire thats connected to the remote, it does not charge. something must be wrong with the wire it self or the solding on the inside but the heli is great, its cool. most of it is plastic except for the "tail rod" and ofcourse the mechanics inside.
the charge wire is the ONLY thing im bummed out about. luckily i have a usb charger. without that id be very disapointed on the quality of the remote.
Its a good buy. you get what you pay for.
