Seen a few of these on the net now and on paper they look great. Fully aerobatic with pitch control and tail rotor gyro so just like a proper model heli. How good are they though, and more importantly how robust are they?

I had (still have) RC helicopters from when I was a teenager (Hirobo MH10 and a Kyosho Convert EX), however they were both fearsomely difficult to fly so consequently I was always terrified of smashing them up and not being able to afford to fix them. Now it's not a question of affordability of parts, rather availability as even at the time they were pretty rare machines, so it's best that they stay grounded as "classics".

I'd like to get back into the hobby as I did enjoy it, but living in Central London it's not really practical to go for a normal size heli as you can't fly them indoors, hence my interest in these sub-micro helis.

Does anyone have one and are there any recommended makes/models?
