Heard there great fun from someone but thats all ideal for indoors

Looks good in the video.
For £30 you can't really go wrong. Might get two different channels for races

There not ZX9Rs Leebert

But after beating everyone on your bike, I guess helis are next

we've got one of these, had to send it back twice, both were faulty!
when we did get one that worked, it was fun, then i got bored.

it's now gathering dust in the attic!!

sell it to me!!!!! they look fun i will offer you something for it

They are really good fun.
You have to get the right amount of weight on the nose to make it fly forward, otherwise it will just go up and down.
There not exactly precise flying machines, tend to do there own thing a bit, but they are unbreakable(trust me, weve tried)
Good fun trying to do combat with them

Oh, and they work on infared, so you have to keep the tx pointing at it, when they lose contact, they hold the last setting, so if you are at full power it will just fly off

Got one at the British Nationals they were selling like hot cakes.

There great fun -- as someone said if your bored add some nose weight -- it can get up quite a speed. Woolies had them for £20 .

Just got one of these for a laugh and they are indeed great fun ....
Got the limited edition Camo one
Just sit on a chair in the kitchen and stooge about till the little lipo battery dies

They add little aluminium stickers now so you can get forward flight - with practice you can get quite well controlled figure of eights - can't quite get the tic tocs right though
