 A great buy June 28, 2008

I have only had this little helicopter for an hour or two and i love it, even though ive crashed it. It is easy to control but takes a little time to get used to, the trim buttons are proving too awkward, but i would highly recommend this as a gift to anyone or just for yourself. My only concern is that my cat might kill it or it might kill my cat. I had a larger r/c helicopter a couple of years ago and it was fragile and broke within the first half hour of use, whereas the picooZ apache is light and feels flimsy but is durable. An overall good buy. (im getting another one!)
Loads of fun!! February 11, 2008

I bought the Apache helicopter for my boyfriends birthday and he loved it. we both found that it takes a bit of time to get used to and to work out how to control it, but once you have worked it out it's loads of fun!! If you do have high ceilings in your house, it would be an advantage - he doesnt so you are limited on the height that you can fly it to!! A great toy - fun for all ages whether watching or playing!!
Cool toy January 6, 2008

Looks cooler than the standard picoo z, but not quite as stable. The original will hover in one spot (without weights), whereas this apache variation seems to pendulum quite a bit, and is less tolerant of minor air currents. The trim also seems more finicky. This is my second picoo z (and the 7th I've bought including presents). I wouldn't expect it to last forever, as despite surviving many crashes, the motors seem to be the weak point of the ones family and I have owned. If you really enjoy this toy (as an adult!), at 20 you may want to try seeing it as a consumable item, rather than a one off purchase!
