I've been flying RC planes for 35+ years and losing orientation got to be a problem. I never crashed because of it it but it was just a matter of time. Being able to fly these little helis slower and in close has put the spark back into flying. Having said that this little one flies great and also looks great. I highly recommend it. BTW, this is my 5th helicopter. They are addicting.

Best Helicopter for learning
I’ve had a few helicopters, but I’m mainly fly airplanes but having one of these made me get interested enough to buy a more advanced helicopter. It really helped me learn how to fly helicopters. These are easy enough to fly right out of the box as long as you don’t disrupt the optical sensor. If you have shadows or low light or uneven surfaces and colors, it can make it difficult. However, I was messing with mine and got it too far away couldn’t really see what it was doing. Hit the land button and it landed right on the road quarter mile away from me walked over and picked it up totally unharmed great helicopters. Take it out of beginner mode non optical, and it really is a blast to fly. So glad Helidirect carries parts. That’s the problem with these Chinese products is a lot of times there isn’t a lot of support for these cheaper Helicopters.

Nice Bird
No issues with the looks or the flight of the helicopter it nice. The package was missing a part. I have read where people had issues with customer service, but I contacted customer service and they send the missing part no issues. I really only have an issue with the "cheap" toy feeling of the transmitter. For the price of the helicopter, maybe a little bit better quality of plastic. Would be nice if these came as BNF option.

This is a super fun and stable scale flying helicopter. Cannot beat this model for mild backyard flying. It looks great in the air as well.

Great flyer
This is a really great help and highly capable of handling strong winds despite its size. Saves me a lot of driving since I can fly it in our court during the day when there is no traffic. Love to just fly around the front yards and between plants.

nice product
The product was delivered in less then a week. Item was as described and came with the # of batteries that I ordered. I ordered some replacement parts on a second order and was surprised how quickly they showed up. The best part was they were cheaper then ordering from China and I did not have to wait weeks for parts.

cool scale bird
lots of chill fun, on manual speed 2 its fun. Looking forward to figuring out a way to binding it with my radio, a little bit harder than usual. Great wind resistance. I really like it, also I love the way it sounds, a little less intense than the E2 when you don't want too much power or sound but a bigger micro. I do wish heli direct had the V model, which is 3-D with a Futaba flight control, but I do love heli d and I'm very satisfied with the chopper. Batteries have good life and hold a charge, and flight time is good enough that only two is adequate for me, which helps the old wallet.
