Syma S107G 3 Channel RC Radio Remote Control Helicopter with Gyro - Green

Really really great buy to me. I fly it inside just my house just about everyday. Easy to control and flies perfectly. It's very light so a fan will push it out of flight. Flew it right of the box the first time. For beginners, definitely. Also it's very durable, I accidentally flew it into my ceiling fan that was on high and it flew across the room really fast. I thought oh nooo! Guess what, I picked it up and nothing was broken at all! I mean nothing, it still flies like brand new. 2 weeks later hit by the ceiling fan again, my fault of course, no issues. Best little indoor heli I've ever bought. Doesn't fly to well outside though even if its a tiny bit breezy it wont fly good. Strictly indoors for me. Hovers in place very well its pretty powerful so careful not to wack the ceiling on take off. Also remote has trim adjust to keep it from spinning in circles. I love it buy it I'd say.

Ok, so I have been flying these since the first week of August and now I have bought my sixth S107G.My opinion is that this model is VERY easy to fly but not real durable. I have learned a lot in the two months that I have been playing with them. I am still flying the original S107G that I bought which was green. (By the way the colors don't matter; they are all the same!) I bought additional helicopters so that I would have more flight time. I had to buy spare parts and tools to help me repair them because as I said they are not durable and they do break a lot. Still given the low low price and the availability of replacement parts for only a couple bucks, I think this is a great bargain and an EXCELLENT toy for anyone from age 14 to 140!I have repaired the first heli I bought about 4 times. The last repair was an upgrade to the battery. After flying this helicopter a lot, the battery life was down to about 30 seconds. When it was new, I had about 5 minutes. I put the battery upgrade in and now it flys for between 8 to 10 minutes. The upgraded battery is heavier which gave the nose more weight. The bottom line is I am very pleased after the battery upgrade. The upgrade is a 240ma 3.7v battery vs the original which was a 120ma 3.7v battery.The reasons I have bought this helicopter repeatedly are as follows:1. Very Easy to Fly - (great first time helicopter)2. Very inexpensive to buy3. Parts are cheap and widely available4. Easy to repair5. I have parts on hand and I know they are easy to replace6. Flying and fixing the S107G helicopter is a lot of fun!7. The more you have the more flight time you will have!8. Landing on the coffee table or on top of the wife's china cabinet is really COOL!9. Flying them in the conference room at work has recruited many new S107G owners and pilots. These toy copters are so cool everyone wants one!

I rated this Remote Control Helicopter at 3 stars. This product is enjoyable to play with, but the controls are very difficult to handle. I purchased this for my very mature 7 year old son to play with, and even after much practice, he has not been able to master the controls. You also need a very large room to fly this in, as it says on the directions not to fly it outside. My son still thinks that it is a really cool Helicopter, but he gets frustrated because the controls are so sensitive. My husband even has a tricky time with the controls and flying this. I do have to mention that this Helicopter is very sturdy. We have crashed it by accident numerous times, but it still works great. Overall, I would only recommend purchasing this if it was for a teen or adult and if you have plenty of open indoor space to fly it.

We have ordered so many of these over the years, I feel like I should leave a review. For around $20-$25 you can't go wrong. Usually they work very well, until we thrash them. Once we got one that was just off, but we returned it shortly thereafter and amazon makes that so easy; it's hard to complain. We order a couple at a time and have fun until they don't fly any more. We have several young boys and these things are not treated well. They do take quite a beating, though. Hit the ceiling, hit the floor, slide across the floor and hit the wall. Repeat. We've had helicopters last up to a year, but with the younger boys wanting to fly them they can last less than a week. Usually even with continuous beatings, they last at least a month. Prior to thrashing, when I get a few minutes to play with them, they fly really well. Very stable with the counter rotating blades, and the directional control works. It's easy to do smooth circles (forward or backward), figure 8's, and land on small surfaces. My 7 year old landed one on a ceiling fan blade which is quite difficult considering the sloped surface, and the added fun of having the ceiling fan blades move from the thrust of the helicopter. All in all, a great time.
