Replacement for SYMA S107 Altitude Hold S107H 2.4Ghz RC Helicopter One-Key Launching/Landing Beginner Flight Mini 3CH Metal Gyro Heli, Red

Los minutos que disfrute con mi sobrino con este Jugete es muy divertido Solo el control remoto tiene un falso contacto en el encendido pero por el precio está bien

This is a very decent RC helicopter for the money and was easy to fly after a few small crashes. The rotor blades itselves are made of a very flexible plastic and does seem to hold up to crashes and blade strikes very well. I did replace my blades eventually as they start to split on the edges and are probably no longer safe to fly as they can rip apart mid-air! Be warned, if you damage your blades, YOU MUST REPLACE THEM since it could be a huge eye hazard if you're flying it around near people indoors. Battery life is decent, you get about 4-5 mins on a single charge and does perform very well. You can almost "feel" the helicopter lose power as the battery starts to run out as you will need more throttle on your stick to obtain the same altitude. Overall, I recommend this product to anyone looking for a first RC helicopter or someone intermediate at flying. I would NOT recommend this to young children as there is a learning curve and some maintenance involved to keep this heli air-worthy and running safe/optimal.

Absolute crap. Didn’t work. Never received a response from seller when requested replacement or refund

Ok, let’s be honest here...regardless of what the title and description say, this is a Syma S36. I had to do “surgery” on the battery connector it came defective. Instructions were just flat wrong. The order of turning on controller 1st then copter is backwards from what is necessary. The color indicted (red while charging and blue when fully charged) is flat wrong- actual is no light when charging and turns red when charged. —reached out to seller and they just regurgitated the incorrect info. After a response to the seller, they responded again, that indeed there appears to be some misinformation in the instructions. No joke! The listing on Amazon talks about flying with flashing light...there are no flashing lights. Now for the positives...I have had, and still have, many quadcopters, so I have some experience with flying RC. This is my first helo though, and is a little different skill. With the yaw on the right stick and realizing that there is no sideways movement (you need to yaw and point in the direction you want to go and go forward or backward) it was an adjustment. Having said that, once I figured out the correct order of things and practiced a very little bit, I was having a lot of fun with this. The little bird seems quite durable (I had some initial ‘crashes’) and really is a very stable flyer. If my star rating was based solely on the end result, I’d give it a 4 or 5 star, but with the initial issues of defective battery connector and incorrect instructions, I can’t do that.

Super simple to fly, and a guaranteed favorite toy for anyone over 7! It is my go-to present for kids that have not had a RC helicopter. I first discovered this specific helicopter in a mall 8 years ago (when my son was 5), and it was his favorite Christmas present that year! While the box says it's for 14+, he, and all of his 5 year old peeps had no difficulty learning to control it. Note: There are small parts, and spinning plastic blades so supervise your kid when they use it. My son understood to shut down the power when he crashed (left throttle), and did just fine. Control is easy. There is power (controlling vertical lift) on the left stick, and movement on the right stick. When you move the right stick to the right/left it controls rotation (clockwise/counter clockwise). When you move the stick forward/backwards the chopper moves in that direction. There's a trim dial on the remote control that allows you to tweak the helicopter so it hovers in place (this position will change as due to bumps & crashes) which is really useful after a couple of crashes. Ours chopper lots of minor crashes and kept on running. The propellers have gobbled up tinsel (from crashing into the Christmas tree; must remove from rotor shaft before flying again), has multiple drops from our 8' ceiling, and lots of bumps against tables, chairs, walls, and counters, and it has kept on ticking. We gave it away after a year, as my son upgraded to more challenging RC helicopters.
