Cool helicopter to be used indoors, you control with iPhone / iPad and any Android smart phone.
The helicopter is equipped with a battery for 10 minutes in flight, while the transmitter has a capacity of over 2 hours. The transmitter connects to the smart-phone through the audio jack and transmits the infrared signal.
The helicopter battery charges in about 20 minutes, while the receiver in about 1 hour.
The application can be downloaded from Android Market or Apple's App Store for free.

I really really really like this item.

I bought this as a present for my daughter who has an Iphone 4 and she loves it. In fact she recently asked me who I got it from because her friend wants one too.
Its a tough little thing, and providing you dont fly it full speed into a concrete wall, it will survive.
If you've flown cyclic pitch models you will struggle, it wont fly sideways, you have to turn and then fly forwards or backwards. (I used to build and fly model helicopters, so I struggled at first) The gyro works well ,just take off straight upwards at least 30cm away from ground effect and turbulence and it is steady as a rock. It arrived fully charged, but doesn't take long to recharge, around 20 minutes. The transmitter lasts for ages before needing a charge. It comes with spare blades , but two weeks later they still haven't been replaced.

The product is superb and the service was great.

I recommend MiniInTheBox!

Mini in the box was very professional in handling this order, my nephew loved it and it was easy to assemble and use.

Bough this to play with a friend (also have the black one)
Cool but sometime difficulties for multiplayer, both copters connects to the same channel. But when it's connected correctly, really great and fun !

comprei no site no dia 5 de abril ja efetuei o pagamento logo em seguida mas ate agora nao recebi as mercadorias que comprei

отличный вертолет. потерпел много крушений, но все равно жив

Ottimo prodotto, ricevuto in meno di 15 giorni senza alcuna spesa doganale (spedito a Parigi, e i francesi sono rompipalle con la dogana). Nella scatola c'era tutto. La durata della batteria è di circa 10/12 minuti (fidatevi è la stessa di tutti gli elicotteri per iPhone... per esempio il Parrot è 20 minuti e costa 300€) e i tempi di carica sono 30/40 minuti. Lo utilizzo spesso a lavoro nelle pause, tutti i miei colleghi ne hanno comprato uno. Ho potuto provare questo modello (semplice con led) e quello munito di missili. Il modello con i missili è leggermente più grande, più pesante e più potente, difficile da manovrare rispetto al modello base. Ci sono tre frequenze per comunicare, così è possibile utilizzarlo quando gli altri usano i propri elicotteri. Sinceramente sono contentissimo del prodotto. MiniInTheBox è il sito consigliato per acquistare, ampia scelta di modelli e ottimi prezzi.
Inoltre esistono dei codici promozionali che permettono di avere sconti aggiuntivi!

Excellent produit, reçu en moins de 15 jours sans aucun coût/frais de la douane (expédié à Paris). Tout était dans la boite. La durée de vie de la batterie est d'environ 10/12 minutes (fait moi confiance c'est excellent pour ce genre de produits, il suffit penser que le Parrot dure 20 minutes et ça coût 300€) le temps de chargements sont d'environ 30/40 minutes. Je l'utilise souvent au boulot, pendant mes pauses. Tout mes collègues ont acheté un helicopter. J'ai pu essayer deux modèles différents: modèle base (blanc avec led) et celui équipé de missiles. Le modèle avec les missiles est légèrement plus grand, plus lourd et plus puissant, difficile à manœuvrer par rapport au modèle simple. Il ya trois fréquences pour communiquer, pour vous permettre de l'utiliser quand d'autres utilisent leurs propres hélicoptères. Honnêtement, je suis très content du produit. MiniInTheBox est le site préféré pour acheter, large choix de modèles et de bons prix. PS. vous pouvez utiliser des code promo pour avoir des remises. ;)

Excellent product, received in less than 15 days without any additional cost (sent to Paris, and the French are grumpy with Customs). In the box everything was like in the description. The battery life is about 10/12 minutes (trust me, is the same as all helicopters for iPhone ... for example the Parrot is 20 minutes and costs 300 €) and charging times are 30/40 minutes. I use it often during breaks at work, all my colleagues have bought one. I could try this model (with simple LED) and the one equipped with missiles. The model with the missiles is slightly larger, heavier and more powerful, difficult to maneuver than the basic model. There are three frequencies to communicate, so you can use it when others use their own helicopters. Honestly, I'm very happy of the product. MiniInTheBox is the preferred site to buy, wide choice of models and good prices.
PS. you can find a promotional code, that can give you some special price! ;)

J'adore cet helico mais en quelques jours d'utilisation modeste (1 à 2 fois/jour), la batterie a perdu 80% de sa capacité. L'autonomie est ainsi passée de 6 min à 1 min (max). Quel dommage.
