Fantastic! Easy to control, Durable and Lightweight!
Christmas Popular Toys This was definitely the best buy ive ever made. The price is amazing for what you get. I would highly recommend this for any children between 8 and 14 :)
Simply amazing!
The picooz is the most fun i've had in ages. I bought it knowing it was good and it is. Its great value for money and when they say its durable they mean it. It only takes a few flights to learn what your doing. However read the instrutions and make sure to trim. If youre going to buy it for a kid make sure there mature enough. The design is great it has a built in LED (light) so you can have night flights. If yout going to fly it outdoors make sure there is no wind or direct sun. A brilliant buy reccomended!!!
Bought one of these for myself and it was quickly stolen by my 53 year-old father!
The helicopter is everything it claims to be. I've found that 20 minutes is usually all it needs for a full charge and you get about 8 minutes of flying time for that.
As mentioned in the instructions, running the battery all the way down WILL kill the battery life until the helicopter is no longer fly-able so that is something to watch out for.
As it's a two channel helicopter (one for thrust, the other for direction) it wont fly forward without some weight at the front. I've found that stabbing the nose with a pin with some blue tack at the end can make for respectable forward motion.
