4.0Great gift for the holidays!2010-11-22PROS Fun To Play WithCONS Short Battery LifeBEST USES Older Children Teens Adults Indoors Young ChildrenComments about ZZZ - S012 Mini Apache AH-64 Remote Control Helicopter:
I've been hearing about these new and improved toy helicopters for some time, and finally decided to purchase one. When I took the S012 out of the box, I was immediately impressed by the way Syma designed the shell of the copter. While it may not be the most scale model, you can't argue with what you get for this price! I immediately plugged it in, and was up in the air within an hour or so. I have a few other toy helis, and this one's quickly become my favorite. I don't even mind the blinking LED lights (I've read a few forums where people have complained about them). My only warning is to retrain yourself and not try to be too ambitious with your flying this is still just a toy! Also avoid flying out in the wind, or outdoors in general. It's not very much fun, and you may risk losing your heli. Anyways, check this model out if you're trying to learn how to fly an RC helicopter (not as easy as it looks on youtube!), want to buy a good gift, or want some cheap stress relief. WAS THIS A GIFT? No BOTTOM LINE? Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

4.0Very nice2010-11-22PROS Fun To Play WithCONS Short Battery LifeBEST USES Comments about ZZZ - S012 Mini Apache AH-64 Remote Control Helicopter:
Instead of a trim, there's a turn dial that stops the S012 from spinning around. Other than that, pretty typical toy heli. Cheap and fun. BOTTOM LINE? Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

5.0great family fun2010-11-16Comments about ZZZ - S012 Mini Apache AH-64 Remote Control Helicopter:
I bought this RC looking for a cheap toy to play with at home with my two sons. I thought for sure that the heli would break after a weekend, but boy was I wrong! Me and my boys have learned how to fly this helicopter despite bumping into walls and celinings, and just about anything else you can imagine in the house. I Recommend this for anybody looking for a great family activity or gift. I have to warn you though, you might have to settle a few arguments over who gets to fly if you have more than one child :P WAS THIS A GIFT? No BOTTOM LINE? Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
