Any ideas where else I can find one of these in stock? Does anyone here own one of these, and can anyone recommend any other toy choppers for a little more money with a little more power, without having to splash out for a proper RC chopper?

How hard are they to fly (the cheap mini indoor ones)? I heard choppers were very difficult to master. Surely they are fun, and you wont crash after a bit of practise?

Admit it. It scared you. You're lisping

Can you get RC controls which plug into the USB port, for realistic training? Just curious. If I was buying a proper RC heli, Id want real lessons before playing around with an upside down flying weed-wacker which hovered at crotch level.

Im very tempted to go for the little 60 quid jobbie, that looks like fun

Cheers for the replies donald Im very much undecided whether to go for a cheap toy electric to start out with, or a more expensive model. Ive always wanted a proper RC helli/plane (two very different toys, I know). I'll have a think about it and give the model shop a call.
