Long description
The Syma S107G is a 3-channel R/C helicopter with built-in Gyro. You can control it in 3 directions, up and down, forward and backward as well as to turn clockwise and anti-clockwise. The helicopter flies as stable as a floating object, you can easily control it to land on any spot you want. Controlled by 3 motors, 2 main motors, with a tail motor. The new generation of RC helicopters is here! Unlike previous models of helicopter, the Syma Metal Series 107 has a built in gyroscope that makes it far more manoeuvrable than any model we have ever flown before. The internal solid state gyroscope enables a whole new level of directional control, which means that the helicopter always maintains a fixed heading. Gone are the days of out-of-control spinning! This easy to control direction in flight means that the Syma 107 flies exactly where you point it, unlike some of the older models. The world of indoor helicopters has really taken a leap forward in the past few years from 2-channel to 3-channel. This means that you now have control over the height, speed and direction, over 3 different axis of control. Charging from either the remote control handset or via USB connection, this is a versatile little aircraft that is really great fun to fly. This little helicopter has a sturdy metal casing that protects the motor and gearing in case of crashes or 'overconfidence' as we like to call it here at the RED5 offices! Never fear though, we stock spare parts in case your helicopter comes off worse in a battle with the wall! Features: - Charges in 40-50 minutes via USB or handset to give 6-8 minutes of flight time (approx.) - Measures 22cm (l) x 3.8cm (w) x 9.8cm (h) - Main rotor measures 19cm in diameter - Excellent hovering control - Range of 30ft (approx.) - Rechargeable 3.7v Li-poly battery included - 2 frequencies available - Requires 6 x AA batteries - Spare parts available

Toy for dad

I am very happy with the Heli. It is small and for indoor use, but as tough as nails, I have crashed it more times than I can remember, and still going strong.

Not bad

Must say that Kalahari's turn around time in replacing an item was extremely fast and efficient. Hats off to the lady that answers all FaceBook complaints and compliments.
The helicopter works well, and my son is becoming quite adapt at landing it on tricky platforms, despite a few hiccups where it sometimes suddenly takes off sideways (Gremlin). I'm quite happy with the purchase.
PS: I originally bought this article for R399, when Kalahari replaced it, they did the good deed of refunding me the difference on the new selling price. Hats off to you peeps. ... Now only if you sold sporting goods as well.
