Best $22 Toy Ever Made!,
I’m a 47-year-old kid who has always loved aviation and RC models. Cars, planes, everything. I currently have two other small scale rc helicopters that I have enjoyed, but they are NOTHING like the Syma S107. Not even close. The thing is, they cost A LOT more.
I see a lot of comments here about how easy this model is to break. The two channel models I have are much more likely to break because you have very little control. With the Syma S107, you have ABSOLUTE control. Have you ever seen a dragonfly in flight – stopping and turning on a dime? That’s what this helicopter reminds me of.
Right out of the box it is impressive. The quality of construction is beautiful to look at. If you’ve ever seen one of the huge rc helicopters that the pros fly, this looks like a scaled down version, with a metal frame and boom tubes just like the big ones. Two separate motors operate the main rotors independently. When you initiate a turn, one rotor spins faster than the other to generate torque, which turns the aircraft. It’s the same principle that is used to turn real twin main rotor helicopters like the CH-46 Sea Knight and the CH-47 Chinook.
The really cool part is the tail rotor. It’s mounted at 90 degrees to what you’re used to seeing on a helicopter. It blows air up and down, not left and right. The tail rotor is what generates forward and backward movement by raising or lowering the tail, and it is very precise and responsive.
A couple of tips if you’re new to this type of toy:
1. After charging, put the helicopter on a good, clear section of floor and turn on the helicopter and remote.
2. Don’t touch the right control yoke yet – you don’t need it.
3. Hold the throttle yoke in your left hand and the small trim adjuster knob in the right.
4. GRADUALLY move the left yoke forward to increase throttle until the helicopter barely leaves the ground. Watch for left or right rotation and turn the trim knob to make the helicopter hover without rotating. Once it hovers without turning by using only the throttle, you’re ready to fly.
5. Get used to the throttle by GRADUALLY increasing and decreasing. The biggest problem is using too much throttle and hitting the ceiling, then the helicopter falls all the way to the floor. That’s how they break. If you’re careful, you’ll be OK.
6. ENJOY. This is the coolest toy I’ve had in years, and my kids like it so much, I bought another for each of them today.

|Fun toy, too bad I bought it in Tokyo for way more…,
This toy is great, even for the big kids to play around with. It’s a very durable and easy to use helicopter and requires no previous skills to fly. Best of all, you can charge it using your computer’s USB port or the remote controller it comes with. One thing to note is that this toy is IR controlled, not radio controlled. That means that it’s more line-of-sight than being able to control it from another room for example. That being said, it will not get interfered with by cordless phones or other radio emitting devices.
You can fly this little guy in a small apartment or a small room and you will have fun doing so. It’s great for offices since it’s not too loud and again easy to maneuver.
Hope you enjoy it!

|Great little helicopter,
I bought this remote controlled helicopter a few days ago for my son who is 6. It is a really cool toy. It is amazing to see it fly and maneuver around the house. It charges for about 40 minutes and flies for about 8 minutes on a charge. It requires skill to fly and is actually challenging, which makes it fun and interesting. My son is too young to really play with it properly so we play with it together. It is pretty sturdy, however, you will end up damaging it over time. There is only so many times that you can crash it before it gets damaged. A small piece of decorative plastic cracked from the tail section which I taped back together. I wouldn’t count this against the product because I crashed it repeatedly without significantly damaging it. I will probably have to buy some spare parts in the future.
Bottom line – Great, fun, challenging little toy helicopter. Probably the coolest remote controlled toy I have ever bought.

|Never to old,
I must admit I was wondering whether the reviews were artificially written by the manufacturers/sellers,…. However, the first flight put me at rest…I am 80 used to fly big birds but this is great fun and now a few of my friends are enjoying the same S107′s. Expect quite a few spectacular crashes when people open doors or the airconditioning comes on when least expected. Improvements …Remove the nose and place a small weight ie. a nut in the nose and replace it to give the forward flight characteristics more momentum…then you can scoot around the room easily. Think I can now impress my wife that I could fly a larger one without destroying the house !!!!!

|Flies great but only for a few minutes,
I bought this for my 10 year old. She has another Syma helicopter and it has lasted 2 years of flying and crashing so I chose another Syma. I thought the bult in gyro would add to the enjoyment and it does. The helicopter flies like a home sick angel! It is stable, will hover if you hold the throttle steady, can be accurately directed and easily flown without crashing. Sounds like perfection and at a very reasonable price. There is one problem that spoils the fun though. After about 2-3 minutes flight time it will not hold altitude. You can get it to climb by flying in a forward direction and extend you flight a couple more minutes or you can land it and let the battery recover for a few seconds and it will climb or hold altitude but only for another 10-15 seconds and then it begans decending again. Even if you do use the forward flying trick (a half dozen circles going forward will get you 3-4 feet altitude) or you shut it down for a few seconds to give you enough to climb to the five or six foot level where I usually fly to avoid the sofa you only get about 5 1/2 minutes total fly time half of which is psent trying to extend you flight time. It takes 30-40 minutes to charge the battery. The other rc copters we have owned took about 8-10 minutes. This could have been an amazing toy with a slightly bigger battery.

|It works!!!,
This is the real deal. The gyro works perfect like it should. Other brands make claims that their products can’t back up. But this little heli is worth every penny.
I’ve tried 4 other brands and they sucked. This S107 would fly circles around them and it will land where you want it to. Do a search on youtube and you can see for yourself.
