    4 Stars Come Fly With Me! Review with images 26/12/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Inexpensive, fun to use, very responsive, surpisingly resilient, charged via remote

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Charging time compared to play time, poorly written instructions and flimsy usb lead

    My oldest son was desperate for a remote controlled helicopter for his ninth birthday, after spotting one in action at a gadget shop. I studied reviews online and this model, the Syma S107, was the one which consistently had the highest ratings and seemed to be the best of its kind.PriceI was pleasantly surprised by the relatively low price tag for such a popular toy. I paid just under £20 from Amazon back in September but the price fluctuates regularly and I have since spotted this for less than £15. At anywhere near the £20 mark, this is well worth the money. In fact, I have since ordered ... more

    4 Stars Back Hawk Down...and Up...and Down Again! Review with images 02/01/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Very responsive controls

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not a great battery life

    As a child, I rarely had access to remote controlled vehicles, as my parents knew I didn't have the fine motor control skills required to avoid smashing it up against the skirting boards of leaving long rows of dents in their furniture. As an adult, despite being impressed by technological advances which have made toys far more fun now than they were when I was younger, I've still tended to avoid them, as I still lack the necessary fine control skills – to the extent that I'm the only person I know to seriously consider putting stabilisers on a motorbike. Fortunately, I have friends who like ... more

    5 Stars I can fly in my living room :) Review with images 21/02/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great fun, easy to control and extremely stable - Great battery life

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None really...

    It's true what they say about boys - they love their toys and this Syma Helicopter has been one of my favorites. During a rather random shopping trip in Cardiff I popped into the Modelzone model shop for some 'me time' and I discovered this fabulous looking machine. The staff members were doing their usual demonstrations of the helicopters right at the main entrance of the shop which to my surprise went totally wrong and it resulted in a lady having one of these helicopters stuck in her hair for the whole 10 minutes that I was in the store. However before this incident the helicopter had ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Excellent control system, very durable and suitable for all ages

    Disadvantages Disadvantages The 10 minute battery life only really allows for short usages

    It seems the longer I’ve been with Jen, the more her family seem to be realising that I’m quite like her dad. We both have a passion for anything remote controlled and it is perhaps no coincidence that we both received a Syma Infrared Controlled Helicopter for Christmas. In fact the only difference between the two presents were the colour. Now I’d previously considered buying myself one of these a couple of times, but just couldn’t quite justify the expense, so getting one as a present was the ideal solution. Looking Sharp This model is one of a new generation of RC Helicopters and certainly ... more

    5 Stars Almost too easy to use... 27/01/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Simple and fun to use; very robust and incredibly stable

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None

    Having owned other heli’s (brought years ago) I have to say that this is a very clever and well made bit of kit, especially when you consider the price most retailers sell it for. I was wary of the fakes (cheaper pretend models) that are available but I stuck to a well known retailer and dodged that bullet. You'll get everything you need to start flying (other than the obligatory batteries for the controller); heli, controller, USB charging lead, spare rotor blade (not needed for me yet despite some great crashes), instructions etc. You have the choice of charging from USB (I use my iPhone ... more
