This is a co-axial heli, which means that it's pretty much designed for hovering. Right off the bat, its stability when hovering is the first thing you'll observe about this heli vs a comparably priced single-blade heli.
Trim control works beautifully. You'll probably need to tweak the little knob on the remote at the beginning of every flight and maybe a couple of times during an extended flight, but it's easy to find the sweet spot and ignore it thereafter. Just playing with the trim control and thrust, you can have this heli hovering almost perfectly still in the air with little or no practice. That level of control in a heli this size is astonishing. If you're used to Air Hogs and similar micro heli toys, this one's going to blow your socks off. Right, left, forward and back controls actually work. With just a few minutes of practice you can have it flying around the house at a decent clip without any collisions and then land it on a dime...Read more 5 of 6 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Syma 3-Channel S105 Mini Indoor Co-Axial Metal Frame Helicopter ---NEW! The Syma 3-channel S105 Mini Indoor Co-axial metal frame helicopter is light years away from the mini helicopters of just a couple of years back.
Control of flight and elevation allow for three to five minutes of air time without banging into the walls or hitting objects . . . well Ok, I've nailed a few balloons floating about the room. Oh, I'm flying in a small room that is 12X16 with eight foot ceilings. ;-) The helicopter is an impressive sight with its solid appearance and performance. I've allowed my three year old grandson to fly this little aircraft to his hearts content. He's able to keep it aloft for up to three minutes without hitting the ceiling and when he learns to use the directional controls I suspect that he'll be able to land on a small table top, grandpa needs a large tabletop and sometimes miss because I tend to get a bit anxious. The only drawback that I've found is with the Li-poly batteries and their relatively short life...Read more 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: = Durability: Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Syma 3-Channel S105 Mini Indoor Co-Axial Metal Frame Helicopter ---NEW! This is a great little helicopter and seems to be very durable. Does not seem to have all the quality issues as the S107g. Flies longer than the S107g and looks better too. Bought 3 of these helicopters so far and none have gone back. (versus 5 of 7 of the S107G's that have gone back for quality issues)If you want a great little helicopter to ease the stress away you can't go wrong with the S105G's. |
