This review is from: Syma S032 Connect Buckle (Toy)
Item arrived on time and in good condition.
I purchased this item after reading a review that claimed the addition of one more connect buckle would enhance the light wind performance of my Syma S032 heli and help prevent TBE, aka toilet bowl effect. The stock S032 comes with and only requires one connect buckle on the upper rotor assembly. While I have little doubt that this would be a fine relacement for a lost or broken buckle, do not expect any performance improvement when adding an extra one. While I have no problems with flying my Blade MCX2, Blade 120 SR and several Syma S107's, my S032 was a total fail right out of the box. My star rating reflects the connect buckle and not the S032.

I just purchased these for my Syma S032G helicopter because as another reveiw mentioned they were not included in the original purchase for whatever reason. Mine flew fine without the additional connect buckle but seemed to vibrate more than what I thought it should. I bought these two to add the one that was missing mainly to balance the heli. It fit perfectly and is exactly like or is OEM. Heli seems to have smoothed out some and is easier to trim. Great heli and is big enough to carry my mini camera, which is one of the reasons I bought it. A little large for indoors but still manageable. There is a switch on the transmitter to increase the thrust on the tail roter for outdoor manuverability, but have only flown outside with little to no wind so cant really comment on that. Ive just noticed that it can travel much faster indoors with this switch selected than with it not.
BUY THE BUCKLES!,

If you're gonna buy the SYMA S032 - Buy the Buckles. Spend the extra $2.50
and you'll solve alot of vibration problems from the outset. The heli
comes with only one buckle, you need two to balance the flybar properly.
Got mine from Superstition Hobbies. They were a perfect fit, easily
snaps into place opposite the other buckle, free shipping,
quick results. Save yourself some headaches, BUY THE BUCKLES.
Otherwise, you may experiencce vibration, trimming-control problems,
and additional wear on your main shaft/gears. Your choice.... :)
