On the appearance of view, I am not disappointed: the device is small, but elegant, all-metal (except light plastic blades), and the mechanism combines flexibility and robustness. It is easy to mount, with a screwdriver provided even replacement blades are provided, it is a good idea!
The device can be recharged by USB, or via the remote control; a detail, it does not take on its landing gear while charging, the cable from underside.
However, to make it work, it's another story:
- The batteries in the remote control must be absolutely new (rechargeable batteries I tested did not fly the helicopter);
- Record, certainly in French, is pretty quick on the take-off procedure, and I found quite by accident handling.
- On the ground, my helicopter is uncontrolled turns on itself; the precise instructions that must be set the "trim". The towers have lessened, but not arrested. Wrong setting on my part?
- It is almost impossible to hover, so the throttle lacks precision.
- End load, the rear rotor stops before the main rotor, and the 8 minute flight seemed to me very fast!
However, I acknowledge that:
- I enjoyed to be tested, and I amuse myself again I think;
- The unit is really solid, views the falls I've done to her.
A little advice, allow ample space for your first attempts!
