Prop Shots Ripcord Launch Action Helicopter

I will say that the construction is pretty sturdy for this toy I would give it a 9(10). For flying ability it is not much I would give it a 2(10). It is supposed to fly so a 2 over all score. The propellers need to be larger and the body weight its self needs to be lighter. I am an adult and I can barely get it to go four feet up in the air. My kids don't really like it and so it is not really played with. They play more with the cheap spinner that we got at a carnival more than they do with this toy as a whole. They do like to take the helicopter and play with it by its self. From this aspect it is well constructed. Father of Quads.

We bought this for our 6 year old daughter when another helicopter we had gotten for her broke almost immediately. (It was one of those more complex types you see in the malls that return to you like a boomerang -- our bad!)This toy was perfect for her as you just need to hold it and pull. It took her a bit to get used to the amount of force required, but ended up being well suited for her.It is a nice and sturdy toy that doesn't appear as though it will break as easily as the other one did.

Last summer we played with a similar toy at a friend's house. I had been looking for one ever since. I found this one and ordered it. It works fine, it flies ok but it's not as fun as the one I was trying to find. The helicopter does not fly as far or as well and many times when being played with by the younger ones it just goes up and right back down almost in their face. I might keep looking for one that flies as far and as easily as the one I remember. This one was ok, but didn't keep their attention long because it was just kind of boring.

We bought this to replace a similar style toy but different brand that broke the first time we used that other toy. I was pleased to see this toy was much sturdier. My 5 year old can easily load and pull the string to launch the helicopter. Even though it is an easy to use child's toy, it was so fun the whole family played with it- from great aunt and grandpa to all the cousins- and it withstood all of this action. We set up a target in the yard and had contests to see who could get closest. It is really fun.

Really does not perform well at all. Lifts off the base about 12" and then falls to the ground like a rock. Everyone in the family tried it, no one could get it to work any better than that.

It won't launch into the air at all. Tried several different "ways" to help toss it up while pulling the cord, but nothing works. Pretty cheap.

My 5 year old loves this and it is still going strong after months of use. I was surprised by the good quality and durability.

it didn't work. it was a gift and i didn't know for a long time that it wasn't working. disapointed
