Gyro Helicopter S107

The latest version of the Syma gyro helicopter S107 is a super, little, mini RC helicopter which is just nineteen centimeters (eight inches) in length. This may sound very small, but this micro helicopter is designed for beginners and for indoor use, although the remote control transmitter is effective at up to thirty feet. The gyro helicopter S107 is ideal if you want to give someone a taste of flying an RC model helicopter without spending a lot of money.

The gyro helicopter S107 is cheap at about $25, but it is robust in construction and has high specifications for such a micro, bird-sized, model helicopter. For example, it has a metal, not plastic body and a built-in gyroscope for greater stability especially at take off and landing.

The Syma S107 is very light in weight at just 34 grams (1.5 ounces), which means that you can take it anywhere. However, being so light, the Syma mini gyro helicopter S107 can easily be blown off course by a sudden gust of wind, which is one of the reasons why it is recommended for indoor use only.

Another reason is that the S107 has a flying time of only six or seven minutes and if you lose track of the time, it could come down and get lost. Having said that, the Li-Poly battery can be easily recharged from either its AC charger or the transmitter, so you can be flying again in thirty minutes.

The Syma S107 mini helicopter has a built-in 32-level speed controller, a high tech gyroscope and three channels of control to give you just the right amount of automated stability, while allowing the user to be in charge.

The Gyro RC helicopter S107 might be a low cost starter RC helicopter, but it is not inferior in technical specifications. For example, it has three motors, which sounds incredible for a model of this size. Two engines power the main rotor blades and one the tail rotor.

It should not be forgotten that the gyro helicopter S107 is meant as a starter RC toy. Once you get the hang of flying it, you may want to move on to bigger and better models or you may decide that RC helicopters are not for you. Either way, you will have learned something for just $25.

The Syma S107 comes ready assembled, but it can also be completely deconstructed, so that parts can be replaced with spares. That is a mark of its quality.

If your mini chopper suffers a bad crash, it is not ready for the scrap heap. You can replace rotors, motors, batteries and various other bits and pieces.

The handset controller is powered by six AA batteries and this power can be used to recharge your gyro helicopter S107 too, because the helicopter's rechargeable batteries are recharged via a USB cable that comes with it.

This means that you can recharge the Syma S107 from any computer or the handset controller. The batteries in the controller can also be rechargeable for super economy.

The Syma Gyro Helicopter S107 is a great little present with a huge heart and a lot of savvy for any beginner of ny age, who wants to taste the fun of radio controlled flight. Once you have mastered this micro toy helicopter, who knows where you will go next?
