Iron Eagle RC Toy Helicopter

Pros: on.....................

Cons: Charging system defects. To let retreat. Poor after-sales service.

Pros: For the price, tossing in a last minute Christmas gift delivered to our family, for a 5 year old kid, it works

Cons: I would like better quality, but for $20, I figured if he got just a few uses

Other Thoughts: I know for the price, knowing these products at different pricing levels, it is okay. Already destroyed, but he played with it 3 weeks and the joy he had for that time, for such a little cost, I cannot complain at all.

Real uses, move up to the $80-100 models, even the $60 one in the hands of an older 12+ year old, they can have a real blast for a long time.

Pros: This little chopper is fun and tougher than it looks. I really can't say anything bad. It's better than I expected for the low price

Cons: none

Other Thoughts: buy one - it's fun. :)

Pros: Great control, easy to fly.

Cons: Tail rotor stopped responding after about 10 flights.

Other Thoughts: Tail rotor stopped responding after about 10 flights. I took off the shell and inspected the connections on the board and both solder spots looked solid with no visible burn marks. Tail rotor is intact and there are no hairs or debris in the way. I even used another remote and still the tail rotor would not spin though the main rotor responded just fine.

Pros: First R/C experience. Exceptionally easy to fly. Performs flawlessly. Does everything as advertised. Built extremely well. A lot of fun, and a lot technology here for 20 bucks.

Cons: Absolutely none.

Other Thoughts: I've had more fun with this little helo. I can't believe they can deliver such a toy at this price-point. I only fly it indoors, it's way too small to handle any wind. I've enjoyed this little guy so much, that I purchased a SYMA S031G, with the LYPO battery, and its the bomb!! If you purchase either one of these, I guarantee you'll not regret it. Happy flying!

Pros: its a good airplane overall good indoors only, flies pretty high, easy setup and all. youll like it only if you take care of it if not it will break

Cons: breaks if you dont take good care of it

Pros: Fun little toy. LED light is cool in the dark. Hovers and darts around quite well outdoors. At nineteen bucks, who can complain... much.

Cons: Tended to just stop working at the worst possible times. Would suddenly just veer off. Needs wide open spaces for lots of recovery time. Batteries not capable of handling load longer than 10-15 second flight, although the actual life of the batteries allows for about 10-20 flights per charge.

Other Thoughts: The little battery (my guess) would not be able to handle the sustained load of continuous flight. I'm not saying that it had a short battery life, but after being aloft for about 10-15 seconds it would suddenly loose control or just stop working. During the 20 seconds it would take to recover the toy and set it back up, it would run fine for another 10-15 and so forth.
Second, the gyro tends to be a bit touchy. You need to start it slowly and wait a second or two for it to orient itself, then slowly take off.
All in all it was fun while it lasted. Having it loose control indoors was not fun and the blades eventually got chipped up. Outdoors on grass and in windless conditions is the best environment for flying this.

Pros: Price

Cons: Emailed over a week ago for an RMA, purchased 2 helicopters, one broken upon opening the box and the other broke after 30 minutes. Just want to return these units for a replacement and company will not even respond back.

Pros: I bought this little helicopter, figuring that it would be a great inexpensive toy and a chance to polish my RC flying skills. Other than a Mickey Mouse charging cable and plug, it seems very well built. Charging takes about 30 - 40 minutes and lasts about 10 minutes of flying. By then I'm ready to take a break anyway. Very sturdy construction. Stands up very well to crashes as I have demonstrated often. The twin rotors make it fly very stable and the IR remote is good for about 30 ft range. I am enjoying my new toy so much that I bought a much larger one, again from Newegg. While I await delivery I am using this one to hone my flying skills. Based on my experiences I would strongly suggest that anyone contemplating the purchase of a larger helicopter buy this one first. The inevitable crashes are less likely to damage the craft or cause other collateral damage.

Cons: None serious other than the charger

Pros: I bought two of these helicopters for my nephews Christmas presents. So of course I had to try them out and make sure they both worked before I gave them to my nephews and they are absolutely fun! The more you fly them the better you get a controlling them. If you decide to order this helicopter you will have fun.

Cons: none
