Wouldf I order another copter? Yes, I would, the Copter arrived with everything I orderd, except for the aforementioned rotorhead problem. Do they test fly the copters before delivery??

I have purchased 3 of these (one flew away Christmas am, note to self- first flight should be indoors no wind)

They do break, the rotors and the landing gear-wish they included a screw driver in the repair kit-tiny screws

It does fly well and takes a training yet rather easy to fly

The rear rotor has a wire soldered on to a small motor, broke in all of the helicopters very quickly

Not bad for the price

My refurbished Hercules Unbreakable 3.5CH RC Helicopter has worked perfectly for months now. Great product!! Countless flights, great flight time and very durable.

...Hello!! I and my 11 year old Grand Son are new to IR/RC Choppers. We just received a Micro, The Nano Spy and the Hercules Unbreakable and immediately began to charge and learn the ups, downs, lefts, rights and get the feel of each of the controllers and the birds response. We experimented on a thick carpet in a 24'x24' living room. I like the Indoor Micro the best. It trimmed out GREAT unlike the others. My Grandson was able to hover. nose in/out, tail right, tail left like a pro after about 5 attempts. The Nano Spy seems to have some trim and balance problems and is a lot more difficult to hover and perform the same tasks as the Indoor Micro. Also, The camera feature is not windows 7 friendly. I will further search for info on that issue. I believe, the Unbreakable 'Herc' is more for any child, teen or adult with more 'Heli' flying experience under their belt. All in all... to each his own...they all have different controlling characteristics and hover/fly differently. All are durable, fun and challenging to 'target' hover, take off and land indoors. The Indoor Micro and Nano Spy are IR!! I suggest you use them only indoors....or only on overcast calm days outdoors.... I bought them strictly for indoor use. Bright sunlight and fluorescent light will interfere with the IR transmitter/receiver. The 'Herc' is true R/C at 27.145 MHz. This review is just our out of the box thoughts and experience. Would I buy again...???? I Sure would!!! Great Service and fast shipping. They are ALL great for the price. One last thing.... Learn the basic hover and above flying techniques before 'going' high flying. Youtube has a wealth of training videos. Be patient and learn the Heli of your choice! Be patient and you won't have to worry or deal with the frustration of breakage or hurting anyone. These 'Heli's' are not toys!!! They are 'Flying Lawn Mowers and Weed Wackers'.... Semper Fi! Godspeed!! Thanks Hobbytron!! Great product!! We'll be back!!

I bought 3 different helicopters. They were all easy to learn to fly and fun to play with. This one fell from 30 feet in the air and didn't get a scratch. They are well made.

I bought the combo pack and fly the small one around in my office. Been flying for a while now and just wanted one for the winter to play with. This thing is well built and a whole lot of fun to fly. Remember the small one uses infra-red for the control and will have a difficult time in the sun outside. Inside it's a ball. I recommend highly.

This is one FANTASTIC company! I had ordered a Hercules Unbreakable and for some unknown reason when I went to turn it on for the first time the little tiny black switch just fell out!!! I wrote to the company and told them what happen and they told me "Not to worry they would send a replacement" - Was I ever surprised when a replacement arrived within a couple of days and I got to keep the original unit for spare parts! How awesome was that! I just can't say enough wonderful things about HobbyTron!!! Thanks again!

Very durable. Being a beginner, I happened to crash it into walls and drop it from height but it took no damage. Stable as well.

Bought a couple for my nephews and they can't stop playing with them.

Kids love it!

A very stable helicopter, I wish it came in different colors.

Great control and very durable, have ran it into walls, ceiling and crashed it in the floor and still holding up.

This is a nice helicopter. It flies like the inside gyro's except you can fly it out side. The heli is very light so the wind will affect its flight quite a bit. The blades and the connections to the rotor shaft are more durable than most. To claim that it is indestructable is not quite accurate. The polymir is quite strong, however the metal on the skids and the rear beam braces is very soft. Great for the beginner.
