SYMAS107/S107G 3 Channel RC Heli with Gyro - Yellow

Funciona muy bien hay que tener más habilidad con el mando pero Funciona perfectamente

These little helicopters are a lot of fun to play with and seem to be able to withstand quite a beating. We purchased several of these to give as "stocking stuffers" at Christmas as well as a couple for ourselves just for fun.The instructions that come with this helicopter are a little lacking, but this is not a complex toy. Helpful hints missing from the instructions:* Leave the unit level when you turn it on for a few seconds. There will be a very small blinking green light visible from the back of the unit that will stop flashing after a few moments. This is the gyro level-setting.* To change channels of the helicopter (A vs B), make sure both the helicopter and remote are powered off. Set the channel you wish to use on the remote and power the remote on first with the throttle lever at idle. Power on the helicopter and move the throttle to the "open" position. After a brief moment, the helicopter will change channels and is available for use.DURABILITYThese are durable but not indestructible. Take care when flying in a room with a lot of obstacles. Even slight changes in airflow in a room will change the flight dynamics of these small, lightweight helicopters. Due to their small size and relatively low powered motors, attaching anything to the helicopter could very easily prevent it from flying and at the very least will make it more difficult to control.BATTERYThe helicopters can be charged from the included USB cable or from the included power-port on the remote. I would advise charging with the USB cable because charging from the remote will quickly drain the remote's batteries.Regarding the USB charger, there is a little light in the USB side of the cable provided that will light up when charging is finished. The LED is not externally visible on the charger cable.The way you fly your helicopter will influence how long the battery lasts, but we are averaging roughly 5 to 7 minutes. Charging takes roughly 45 minutes for my helicopters.To maximize the life of the rechargeable battery, allow your helicopter to "rest" for 5 to 10 minutes after a flight before plugging it in for a charge.Take care when plugging the cable into the helicopter to charge as the pins are very very small and I could see where it could be easy to damage them if you're too rough with it. On the charging cable (both on the remote and the USB cable) there is a small arrow/triangle on the top of the plug. Plug into the helicopter with this arrow/triangle facing up.FLIGHT AND CONTROLThese helicopters quite stable and easy to fly. It does take a little finesse to learn just how much throttle you should give these, but the learning curve is minimal and you'll have it figured out during your first flight.As you fly (and crash... because yes, you will crash these repeatedly) you should expect little tiny nicks in the plastic blades and plastic body pieces. These will impact flight characteristics over time but very minimally. You can pick up a set of replacement pieces for very little money here on Amazon. I think the last time I looked it was maybe $3 or less.IF YOU HAVE PETS WITH LONG HAIR -- keep an eye on the rotor shaft and pull any tangled animal hairs or fibers out from around the shaft regularly.With very little maintenance and care, I see no reason why these shouldn't last for quite a long time. The availability of very inexpensive replacement parts here on Amazon means you should be able to enjoy a great many flights with these units.

It would have received a 5 stars rating if not because of the battery issue I ran into. I read some other comments/reviews mentioning the short flight time issue. I think the issue is a QC problem with the factory that some of battery supply is bad. I accepted the fact that the battery life is short at first but then after I purchased another Syma with same size battery with much better flight time, then I realized it's more an issue with the individual battery. Then after a month, this copter battery is dead completely while my other Syma still flying high as of now. Both Syma are VERY durable compare to other brand copters I have come across. I highly recommend this product, especially as a gift that you want your recipient to remember your presents for a longer time.The following portion of the review is not about the product but about the seller. I bought through Amazon Prime with Battery Super Store. When I try to return the good due the battery issue. It was not returnable due to either out or return time or so, but then only option Amazon offered is to refund the goods but at the end, they(either/both Amazon Prime with Battery Super Store) charged me a restocking fee after they received the product. I actually would have been completely satisfied if they can just send me another battery. It costed them a shipping fee and my restocking fee. A dollar battery and a dollar something shipping would have solved the whole issue. In fact, I lived close by Battery Super Store, I can literally pick it up from their premise. The rigid Amazon Prime system and in-passionate workers of Battery Super Store killed the good feeling of this excellent product.

Died after one flight. Any technology has a percentage/odds of failure. This product failed during its first 3 minutes of flight. After flying around fine, the throttle started cutting in and out. Eventually it stopped throttling up altogether. The remote would bind fine. The lights all indicated it was working. However, after checking the IR LEDs against a digital camera I saw that the LEDs had stopped transmitting. So no IR signal was being sent from the transmitter to the helicopter. Back it went to the seller. Thankfully, WickedSpec from whence it came was extremely supportive in returning the helicopter. They didn't have any more in stock. Otherwise, I would have asked for an exchange.About the toy itself if you're uninformed:Probably the cheapest and easiest RC helicopter out there. A great and cheap starter. A toy helicopter, NOT a hobby helicopter.It's Infrared so don't expect it to fly outside (at least not in the daytime).It's Infrared so you have to keep it in sight. If you want one that can fly around corners or doesn't need a constant line-of-sight signal, look for Syma 2.4Ghz, or Blade MCX2, or MJX T-Series helicopters. Check video reviews of any of those brands to see what people say as they're flying one.It's very small, so breezes from air vents, ceiling fans, windows, etc. can all throw it off course.Flight time is around 7 minutes. So set your timer and plan to have it on the ground before it falls to earth due to power failure.The battery is integrated into the helicopter. There's no battery swapping for continuous flying. If you're handing with a soldering iron you can rig up a micro connector from a hobby shop to create a battery swap ability. But you'll need to rig up a USB charger or a wall wort charger to charge the spare battery.There are ways to tell if your heli is a fake. Do a web search for fake Syma 107 and you'll find plenty of links to tell you what to look for. WickedSpec sold me a genuine article. They're trustworthy.
