 Fun, but it'll break November 17, 2008
Mrs. W. V. Hughes
Now I know that no one will read this and there will be a millon sold by January, but they're very very easy to break! I had mine for just 3 days, i din't crash it....much, I was just hovering about in the lounge when it began spinning uncontrolably. I had a look at it and found that the tail had come slightly loose and was wobbly. Therefore, I recommend buying the dual-rotor model which might.....might get rid of the problem. I gave it a 2 for educational values because it takes some doing to master this thing! Happy flying!

I bought a twin pack of these helicopters for my son last Christmas. At first they were great fun, and actually rather challenging even for adults to control. However, if crashed at the "wrong" angle (and believe me - you WILL crash them) the small downward pointing section at the end of the tail breaks.
Both of my son's helicopters have broken tails and will no longer fly properly. The part is so small it can't be fixed even with super glue.
They are too light to fly outdoors (we got one stuck in the neighbours tree!) and you need a large space to fly them indoors. They move so quickly when on a full charge that in a small room they crash into the walls or ceiling almost straight away. As the charge runs down they get easier to manouvre, and with a lot of practice my son learned to fly them well (though I never did!).
 Fantastic! Easy to control, Durable and Lightweight! October 25, 2008

This was definitely the best buy ive ever made. The price is amazing for what you get. I would highly recommend this for any children between 8 and 14 :)
Simply amazing! October 12, 2008

The picooz is the most fun i've had in ages. I bought it knowing it was good and it is. Its great value for money and when they say its durable they mean it. It only takes a few flights to learn what your doing. However read the instrutions and make sure to trim. If youre going to buy it for a kid make sure there mature enough. The design is great it has a built in LED (light) so you can have night flights. If yout going to fly it outdoors make sure there is no wind or direct sun. A brilliant buy reccomended!!!
Amazing Value for money September 30, 2008

Bought one of these for myself and it was quickly stolen by my 53 year-old father!
The helicopter is everything it claims to be. I've found that 20 minutes is usually all it needs for a full charge and you get about 8 minutes of flying time for that.
As mentioned in the instructions, running the battery all the way down WILL kill the battery life until the helicopter is no longer fly-able so that is something to watch out for.
As it's a two channel helicopter (one for thrust, the other for direction) it wont fly forward without some weight at the front. I've found that stabbing the nose with a pin with some blue tack at the end can make for respectable forward motion.
Overall great fun.
I'd buy two since they're so cheap.
