If you haven’t been to a mall recently, you may not be aware that remote control helicopters are the hot new item for 2011. They are showing up everywhere these days, and there is good reason for it. The technology that they use has finally graduated to the mainstream.

Let’s take a quick look at whats available out there and what the differences are between a $25 helicopter and a $200 helicopter.

Micro Helicopters are the least expensive of the bunch. They are remote controlled via infra red and are very forgiving for any new pilot. They are of the co-axial style, which means that they have two counter rotating main rotor assemblies to make them very stable in flight. The micro heli is also very forgiving with crashes and what are called blade strikes. (when the blade hits something that won’t give) If you are buying for an 8 or 10 year old, this is the way to go. The micros usually recharge through a cable from the controller to the unit and can be flown indoors without too much worry for damage to anyone or anything.

  5. I have purchased several of these copters and I have a buddy that has over eight of them. We have bought the $40 up to the $650 and they are all awesome. It does take a little time to charge them but the wait is worth it. When they say it can fly 300ft they really mean it and more. I have actually taken mine to 500ft and at that point lost control but not to worry. Keep the throttle up and when they fall back into range the rotors come alive and you can still make a safe landing. neuronpc.blogspot.com

  6. The only difference between a 20$ and a 200$ helicopter is their price, probably. They might differ in different aspects and quality but they are still a toy and i admire it.
