    • Product Rating: 3 star(s) Good while it lasts
      by GillesM, May. 6, 2008
    • Pros: Fun, simple
    • Cons: Hard to control
    • Has Owned Product: 12 days
    • Comments:
      I enjoyed the Micro Flyer while it lasted. Found that tail spin was due to particles (I have a cat) that prevented the tail rotor from spinning smoothly. Carefully pulled the tail rotor out and removed the clutter. Worked fine after. Now one of the small...

    • Product Rating: 2 star(s) That's what you get for buying it in the Anchorage airport
      by Online Shopper, Jan. 24, 2008
    • Pros: slick design-great price
    • Cons: not very durable, short run time, long charge time
    • Has Owned Product: 2 weeks
    • Comments:
      I thought this item was fun for the entire family, but it took a long time to charge and only ran for a short amount of time. It wasn't very durable, it constantly span in circles and even the trim didn't help much. My dog had fun with it after the mai...

    • Has Owned Product: 2 days
    • Comments:
      I received this as a gift being a former Air Force pilot. Controls are poor - and tailrotors (2) broke after 2 days of adult flighing in large room. Main rotor also broke. Manufacturer, Excaliber Electronics hasn't returned email or phone request for...

    • Pros: Looks cool
    • Cons: Doesn't work. It just spins in circles
    • Has Owned Product: 3 days
    • Comments:
      Excalibur should be sued for making such a bad product. The darn thing cost $19.95 and it doesn't work. I want my money back. Don't buy anything from Excalibur Electronics, Inc. ...

    • Product Rating: 2 star(s) doesn't work
      by kepi, Dec. 28, 2007
    • Pros: cute, flashing light
    • Cons: can' t fly
    • Has Owned Product: 2 days
    • Comments:
      I found this helicopter cute, since it looks more like a scale helicopter than the pure foam ones. However it seems to be totally underpowered and unable to fly. Even at full throttle if you release it, it just falls to the floor. As other reviewers note...

    • Has Owned Product: 2 days
    • Comments:
      I got one as a Christmas gift and have actually found it durable. I have flown it in a poor space with lots of clutter and have endured numerous crashes. Difficult to control but have been able to trim out and get it to hover. Right and left control w...

    • Product Rating: 1 star(s) Trim adjustments work poorly. Right and left does not work
      by Online Shopper, Dec. 26, 2007
    • Pros: Cute, sounds great in instructions
    • Cons: Uncontrollable, doesn't work
    • Has Owned Product: 1 day
    • Comments:
      My experience is same as other reviewers. The trim adjustment to keep copter from spinning in circles works very poorly and setting does not last. When flying, the right and left controls simply don't work. When you let go of throttle, it keeps runnin...

    • Pros: Fun and cheap price
    • Cons: Broken
    • Has Owned Product: 1 day
    • Comments:
      I got this helicopter for Christmas and it was the coolest thing to try and fly around. It hit a wall and the main rotor broke. There is no replacement and the 90 day warranty won't cover it. It was fun for the one day I had it and is frustrating that th...

    • Has Owned Product: 2 days
    • Comments:
      After 2 days of an adult playing with this helicopter, it broke. It just spins in circles- hard to control. Then the blade broke! After 3 days of trying to get a human at Excalibur and leaving 2 messages I could never get anyone to call me back or care a...
