Propel RC Micropter - Wireless Micro Helicopter--Blue and Silver

Customer Video Review Length:: 0:11 Mins

I received this mini coaxial 2 channel RC helicopter as a gift and have had it for about a year. I don't fly it too much because I find it too hard to control.

Advantages:
Coaxial design means it has more stability than a single rotor.
Has a three color flashing LED search light on the front.
Charges in 15-30 minutes
Flight time is around 5-7 minutes

Disadvantages:
Wobbles around a bit. (see video)
Very hard to trim for a straight flight.
Taking off usually results in an immediate crash as the helicopter tips one direction into the ground.
Paint chips easily.

Tips:
When you push up the throttle, the helicopter will spin. To correct this you will need to compensate on the yaw (x-axis) stick depending on where you want to go, and how much throttle you are using. The controls are not immediate, and so you will need to react BEFORE you finish the maneuver you want...Read more

Got one of these from my father in law after trying 2 channel style. This helicopter is way easier to control right out of the box. It even comes with an extra set of blades.

Dont recomend outside any little breeze interfers. Since you go higher up outside it crashes harder. Thats what cracked the blades and broke the light that sticks out the bottom front. I lost some control compared to when they were new. It's still not worth putting on the second set of extra blades. It's still going

Helicopter is very stable and durable for the price. I have a blast every time I fly it. It even comes with spare blades just in case. It's easy to learn and the integrated battery charger is great.
