Product Description
Introducing an official Guinness World Record holder.... The PicooZ super miniature helicopter from the X-Rotor series and the smallest remote control helicopter ever built! This is a slim-lined infrared controlled precision flying machine, and weighing in at just 10g, the PicooZ is leaps and bounds beyond its competition and set to be the most popular gadget of its kind. The PicooZ's size and weight make it supremely responsive and give the helicopter the ability to be flown inside and outdoors with superb mid-flight stability. As with most remote control gadgets, the controls will take a little getting used to, but after a few minutes you'll be able to control the hovering altitude, and the direction of travel with ease. In fact, the new styled infrared controller is incredibly receptive giving a super-wide radius in which the PicooZ can be controlled. Constructed from a combination of lightweight yet durable materials, the PicooZ will take knock after knock, whilst remaining in flyable condition. The mechanics and battery are built within the helicopter body and so are protected at all times. The built-in battery is charged via the remote hand set which is supplied with an adapter that connects the two together. Simply charge for 20-30 minutes and you'll be ready for take off! Features: Miniature Size, Weighs just 10g, Super Wide Infrared control, Withstands bumps and crashes, 2 Rotary blades for extra mid-air stability, Charging enabled from handset, Charge time 20-30 minutes, Requires 6 x AA batteries (not included).

 A must have boys toy!!!! March 25, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this for my son and he hasn't stop playing it since. I would recommend this toy as a must have for all boys above the age of 6-66! It gives hours of fun to all ages alike and the only disappointment is with the charging of the helicopter which takes 20 minutes but the charge lasts for only 10 minutes, otherwise a big thumbs up!!!!!!!
Terrific fun March 5, 2008
I bought a PicooZ for my son and very soon realised that I should have bought two, the other for me. I looks fragile however is very robust and flies well -despite having had the tail chewed by the cat. I eventually bought one for me which failed after a minute - the tail rotor motor stopped. After a few weeks delay I got a replacement from Amazon and it was well worth the wait. The PicooZ is simply great fun and it takes a little practice and many crashes to get the hang of it. Fully charged you will get 5 to 6 minutes flying time and now I need a bigger house as I have now explored every aspect of our living room. Buy one, you won't be disappointed.
 Seriously cool - easy to learn, hard to master February 19, 2008

Barcode: 4891813856153
I got given one of these for Christmas and i have to admit, they're damn cool. It's very easy to learn how to fly and it's a great feeling when you get the hang of it. For a very reasonable price you're getting something pretty sophisticated - it seriously can hover and although it doesn't look it, it is extremely durable, and trust me that's a good thing - you'll be crashing a lot.
However, as easy as it is to learn, it is very hard to master. And this is hampered by the fact the batteries last about 15 minutes before they have to be recharged. And even though it is durable, it looks so flimsy you're always worrying about crashing it - it puts your concentration on a knife edge. It's a great toy but like so many other things, you really need a lot of time to be able to enjoy it to the full. I'd say a group of young students would be able to get the most fun out of it as everyone can take it in turns whereas families with young kids will find it has limited appeal.

I got given one of these for Christmas and it has taken everything I have thrown at it: Attacks from other flying objects, being flown into walls, 40ft freefalls onto concrete and more. Having said that my brother broke his within a day so there seems to be some variability in build quality. Having said that he's a bit of a neanderthal and could probably break an aircraft black box within a few seconds. All in all these are cracking little toys and for the modest price you can't go far wrong.
Great product-watch out for the cat! January 25, 2008

Got this product for christmas and have to say it is amazing! I couldn't put it down and had mastered the art of flying it around the room in about an hour. Hovering it around the room and landin it on my dads bald head is the most fun i've had in ages!
It's had more than it's fair share of crashes and still in perfect working order (might need to adjust the rotors after some crashes tho!)
Just make sure you keep it away from any cats! Mine saw it, lept off the table and proceeded to escape with it out the door. Retrieved it and it still worked fine!
Brilliant fun!
