The Syma S107 mini remote control helicopter looks just like many of the other indoor helicopters but there are some subtle differences which sets it apart from others in that price range. When you take a closer look at this model helicopter you can tell it is a lot sturdier than similar models. You won't find any flimsy parts which could easily break. The suggested age for this model is 14+. On the side of the helicopter there is an on-off switch and the charging socket. You charge it the usual way by plugging it into the controller but you can also use the supplied USB cable and plug into a PC. This will light up when the helicopter is fully charged. By charging it this way you will save the power on the controller which makes sense. The controller itself has three primary parts, the two control sticks and a central knob. The control stick to the left is what controls acceleration of the propeller, so if you move the stick upwards the helicopter will fly upwards. If you move the left control stick downwards the helicopter will hover downwards. The right control stick will move the hilcopter forwards, backwards, left or right. A clever feature on the controller is the centre knob which can be used to tweak subtle turning tendencies so if the helicopter seems to be flying more to the left you can turn this knob to the right to compensate. The controller takes 6 AA batteries which will soon get used if you use it to charge the helicopter. When you take the helicopter on its first flight, if you have experience flying these toys you will find that the S107 flies very well and easily. You will find that the controls are precise, so if you crash it, it can only be the mistake of the person in charge of the handheld controller. If you are new to flying these toys you should start with the basics. Start by learning hover the copter a feet in the air at one time. Once you have managed to control the copter from being stationary to being 5 feet above the ground and landing safely you can then more on to other movements. I would create a couple of landing pads and then practice take off and landing from these two pads. A few thick books will do the trick. Once you have mastered that you are ready for full flight. The more advanced user can go that extra step and create an assault course to navigate the copper through. Overall this is a great RC helicopter for the price and great for the beginner. It will give hours of fun and not just for kids, it really is a big boy's toy but younger teenagers will soon get the hang of it. I would say that anyone over the age of 8 would easily be able to control this helicopter. But it is to be remembered that this is strictly an indoor helicopter so should only be controlled indoors.
Toy to You have a great collection of mens and kids toys including the popular indoor rc helicopter including the popular syma s107 model.
