Best micro chopper Better then a picco z in more ways then 1

taoistflyer review. This is called the ecoman microgear helicopter. I purchased it from frys electronics for 24.99 it has about the same make up as a picco z but it seams to be of a much better construction. The body is precision molded plastic, which makes for moor consistent flight times and flight characteristics. The flight times are around 8 to 10 minutes of good solid flight with a charge time of 30 minutes for a 10 minute flight. The controller is much the same as a picco z controller except you don't need a screw driver to open the battery compartment. The helicopter didn't require any nose weight to fly well, just a little trim and it flies great and the trim is very accurate and very necessary; always trim it with every flight first thing.
The turning radius is much better and quicker then any picco z I have ever used.
If you have an extra 24.99 laying around then you should pick one up today.
I have only had it for 2 days but the flight characteristics haven't degraded any and I am still getting 10 minute flights and it still has enough power to fly nicely at the end of 8 or 9 minutes. It is very much worth the 24.99 asked by frys. And i like the Schweizer 300 body detail, it's very well dun.

I couldn't find out why my mini helicopter's battery was doing so poorly, thanks.

Whatever you do, don't get the non-silverlit helicopters from thinkgeek. I bought one for fun and the flight time was gone in 3 months :(
I'll be sure to buy this sucker :P
