Interactive Toy Firefly R/C Radio Controlled Helicopter Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this for my 16 year old son. I had bought an r/c helicopter before, but we could never seem to get it to perform, and it was big so only for outside. Since he has had this little guy, he has had a lot of flying time and a lot of fun. It took a couple of days to get the hang of controlling it, and fiddling with the collective on-the-fly, but it has been a great success.
It is lightweight and more resilient than you might think, I have to say, it took a lot of battering when he was first learning. Note: after you crash, make sure the gears are lined up before taking off again:-). The replacement part kit is nearly as expensive as the plane itself. ugh! On the positive side, a little tape works fine for repairing the rotors, and we just had to do that last week, so he has had it for 2 months of learning before actually breaking the thin plastic. (Actually, his 18 year old brother came home from college and was trying to learn how to fly it...)
We bought an a/c adapter for the charging unit. A good product and a good price, I don't think I would go younger than 15 or so, unless they have helo experience.

The Firefly's open-structure design lets observers see the inner-workings of this amazing toy. The Firefly is ready to take flight as soon as it's out of the box.
