One of these has just arrived for my son.
Obviously it will need charging and test flying to make sure it is all OK before he gets home from school.

Make sure you leave enough time to sweep up the bits and order him another one as well.
Try not to do what Mrs. S. did with my RC heli. She crashed it into a lit fireplace.
does it have authentic wakkawakka sound effects? If not, send it back.
I can see tears by bedtime.
OOH! A BABY HEKELOPTER!!!!!
(Squeals with excitement and utter delight)
I can see tears by bedtime.
I'm alread [i]weeping[/i] with joy at the sheer beauty of it. 😥
aye, I await the 'I did not mean to break it' thread...
Pffffffffffffttt..... needs more blades...
Don't tell him you've got it, he'll never know, it'll save all the "sorry son but it won't fly anymore cos' you've broken it" speach/tantrum/sob/not going to bed syndrome.
Then when he's asleep, provided it's not passed your bedtime, go play with it, he'll never know.
Does it have soldiers that drop out the back of it? If it does, does it drop 20 lads off and only collect back up 5? Like in real life?
If you paint it desert colours I'm sure it could be used sucessfully in Iran, they're short of a few over there.
Whereas the rest of my day is buggered by the fact that in the 15 minutes I was out of the house this morning buying milk, the courier has left my new frame with the neighbours who promptly went out.....
Further fuel to solos theory on the evils of milk!!
Don't fly it outdoors. Just. Don't.
Unless you own a ladder and are happy on the roof....
Nearly charged now.
pfft. 
Where might one purchase one of these?

I bought one, not dissimilar to that, our office is a converted barn, first flight the helicopter leapt 20 feet in the air, hit a roof beam & dropped like a stone to the hard floor - doh!
Be careful
Cheers rondo
Maiden flight taken, no children or animals were hurt (one of the cats is in hiding as a result though!).
It seems much easier to fly than the single rotor model [s]I[/s] he had before. I guess the increased weight increases stability.
and its still in one piece for when he gets home 😀
pah!
What you need is this!
[b]emma82 [/b]- Memberpfft.
Yeah, you [i]love[/i] it. 😉
we may have another addition to our family on the weekend. We have compromised that I get a day out shopping on Saturday if he can buy a new little copter to play with in the house. He's only allowed it though as long as it NEVER gets flown by my hair.
My mum's banned me from flying my hekelopter [i]in my own house[/i], when she's round. 😆
She's not impressed with the tiny RC car I got given last week, either. 😳
I only [i]nearly[/i] knocked her tea over..
Your mum must be such a patient person elf. Poor woman 😉
😀
Other day she said 'and you are [i]how[/i] old?', as I excitedly 'drove' the car around the living room carpet.
Shooduv seen her face when she came round and I was laying out the Scalextric for when me mates came round later.... 😆
Elfinsafety - Member'and you are how old?'
She should know really.[i] Sure[/i] it was your mum?
It's confuddling cos I was born on the twenty [i]ninth[/i] of February.
Well that was silly of her, shudda kept her legs closed for a extra day really shudn't she! So what do you do on leap year years then?
