I really don’t understand how any man finds a remote control helicopter so entertaining? Bought one for
my other half for Xmas and now he owns 4!! 4!!!! Why? Just flies them round the house – it’s so boring. If his mates come round they all just sit there and gawp at it flying around. Mention it to any man and they’re like ‘omg that’s amazing, wish I had one’. What is going on!!!!

It’s the equivalent of the irrational lust for handbags and shoes that women have.

That lust Jon is NEVER irrational

remote control helicopter?! where?!?

My mum confiscated mine, after I almost accidentally flew it into her head one day. Seriously. She wasn’t impressed. 😳

I wouldn’t know. I’d rather a nice pair of shoes.

Sammie

I land mine on my wife’s head as she tries to watch TV.

Luckily for her it is one of the mini ones!

My daughters love playing with my remote control cars. Its always them who get them out. Honest 🙂

With the exception of tsy you are all muppets. :Dx

My Xmas prezzy got taken away from me after the fresh flowers got shredded.

This thread is useless without photo’s of said RC helicopters.

I’m that “airwolfed” up I can now put candles out with the downdraft! And my dad bought me mine from Santa, also I’m 35!!!

I had one of the really dinky lightweight ones once. Could fly it round the whole house after a little while, up and down the stairs, it was ace. Like you say Emma, girls never got it at all but any bloke who came round would always want to try it out!

Brilliant Emma! That is the most I’ve ever laughed at a post on here! 😆

You’re actually a girl, aren’t you?

Well I’m glad someone’s happy dez!! 🙂

I would post some pictures for all you Saddos but I really can’t be bothered. Find yer own helicopter pron :p

Edit: tsy I just saw that ad too. They are out to get me’ I tell you!!

They are crap, but the mastering the skill of being able to fly them is quite satisfying.
For 5 minutes.

I got one from a mate for xmas, it’s got an aluminium chassis and is bloody amazing. It’s now living in my office and people come from all the other offices to have a go. They rock.

Yeah I reckon I could get 5 mins entertainment out of one.
Don’t think I’d be grinning like the dude in jad’s pic though.

Guhhhhh, fwying fing, guuhhhhh

I’m not going to show this to my housemate. Place is littered with cars and tanks and all sorts. When he plays with them his face looks just like jads photo.

*shakes head*

Ahem…my wife asked for one for her 40th birthday….err….does that mean she’s not a girl?

Mind you, she’s not that fussed on shoes and handbags either.

Guess who wears the trousers round here!

3 mins fun tops, then ZZZZzzzzzzz

Bens face is more of a tranced out gawp kinda look rather than the smiley in jads pic! I just don’t get it.

Jads photo is hilarious. Pure unadulterated pleasure in that little boat……

The last time I pulled a similar face was the scene where Daniel Craig gets outbid the sea in his blue pants in James bond. I nearly fainted.

RC helicopters are ok, but quadrocopters are really where it’s at.

Ohh, I kind of double posted. Such was my thought process re Daniel Craig. Yum yum 🙂

Chopper envy?

I haven’t seen that film. That good is it?

Oh yes. I’m fact ben nearly got blue pants for Christmas rather than the stupid helicopter. If only I’d known….

3 mins fun, pahh! Foot of string attached to heli skid with tiny powerful magnet on, Lego man with other half of powerful magnet glued to him. Lego man stranded on north face of sofa arm! Hero coptor pilot to the rescue! Hrs of fun!!

Last time nearly fainted was watching Megan Fox in Transformers…

*zones out for a minute*

DezB – Use your imagination?

Control control control

It’s a man thing.

Emsz * and 1,2,3 your back in the room*. Good god he’s flying the frigging thing again. God damn the swear rule on this forum, I need to SWEAR about this 👿
