Great chopper. Got it as a Groupon as well, and it really does fly well. Takes a beating as a beginners craft and keeps coming back for more.
I do take issue with the spare parts though... They included a spare tail rotor blade, which is good, but they only give half a set for the upper and lower blades. Not real useful since the blades spin and when one hits something, the second one does too. I'm trying to find replacement blades now to no avail...
But when it worked it was fun!

It's great. Only problem is the batter life. It comes around only 8 min tops. But it's really stable and easy to control.

Just got this helicopter in my front door today. I personally like it. The helicopter has a awesome design with a cool metal body. It even comes with two spare wings and a spare back wing, so that is pretty awesome. The helicopter, flys great. You just have to get used to the controls. Once you do it is fun. Its easy to fly and control.
i would recomend this helicopter to anyone. The only downside to this that i find that it has a short time of flight, about 10 to 15 minutes depending to how long you charge it. 40 Minutes Charging = 5 Minutes of flight. Oh and this helicopter is very durable, hits and keeps going. Got this on the one day deal too :D

I got this helicopter via a groupon. It's an excellent beginners helicopter. The only one complaint I have is that, it doesn't seem to have a long battery life. I fly it for 15 minutes and the helicopter needs to be recharged again.

Great product. Very easy to fly. Durable enough to handle my nephews repeatedly crashing it. Best helicopter I've purchased.

Awesome little helicopter...much better than others I have flown like it. It has very precise control and hovers well, even at the high altitude in Colorado where other helicopters seem to have trouble. It is also resistant to damage and they thoughtfully included some spare parts including a new rotor. My only complaint is the transmitter eats through batteries and the flight time is not all that long. Great for beginners!

I can sum up my praise with one sentence:
"It goes where you want it to go."
If you try to compare this to the ones at Walmart or Toys R Us by price this still comes out on top.
I've gotten those for my son and they are sub-par to say the least; always spinning with no real control.
Bought two, one for me and one for my son and they fly just like in the video. I only had to tweak the nob on one to stop a very slow turn to the right.
I could not believe you got such a good flying helicopter for this price. I got it on sale and it's an awesome deal for under $30.00
