This review is from: Double Horse 9104 -71Cm 3.5Ch RC Helicopter with Gyro - Colors May Vary (Toy)
I purchased a Double Horse 9100 Hoover about 2 months ago and love it. This new Double Horse 9104 is the "big brother" of that heli and is just as fun,the only difference is that you need WAY MORE space to fly the 9104 than the 9100. The 9104 is almost 10" longer than the 9100 and much faster. As far as performance the two are nearly the same.They both have identical flight characteristics and tendencies. The only reason I purchased this chooper is for the challenge of flying a bigger faster chopper with out the risk of a large investment(at $75 this thing is a bargain). If you are an intermidate to advance flier this heli should be no problem to fly(after some swashplate adjustment). But if you have never flown before I would NOT recomend starting with this one. It's far to fast and the controls are way to sensitive for a first time flier or a beginner.

Bought this helicopter for my son's 14th birthday. After initially trimming it so it could hover nicely, he has begun to learn how to fly it. It has crashed several times and I'm amazed how durable the thing is- not to say it's indestructible, but it seems to be very well built. We try to fly it in the morning, or late evening when it is calm outside. Like all RC helicopters, any wind or breeze will make it difficult to maneuver. I think the larger size helps in this department, but it doesn't eliminate the problem. Before ordering it, I checked several RC hobby sites and found replacement parts are readily available in case you do crash it and break it.

i just got mine today from another place. charged the battery about 35 minutes and it was ready i took it down to a friends to fly it. it was not a problem to trim it. the only thing i found out was if you can feel a slight breeze the heli will have a hard time trying to gain any ground forward even with the trim at full forward. it flew fine had plenty of lift for me i really enjoyed it mine is all stock for now. the heli comes with rubber like main blade and tail rotor blade and the fins on the tail shaft are rubber like. mine has the plastic landing gear and plastic canopy. the newer models have rubber like landing gear and canopy. and the heli comes with a extra tail rotor blade and extra main blade. i did not have any trouble with it all went great flight time seemed like longer than 8 minutes. i did do a check for trouble out of the box and found out that 1 of the connect bars for the balance bar was off. i just snapped it on and every thing else looked good. i did a system...Read more
