Product Description
Havoc Heli is the world's smallest, most advanced radio-controlled helicopter capable of incredible maneuverability. Laser Battle Helis are armed with infrared beam weapons, so you can duel in a kind of exciting real-world 3D "video game" complete with authentic battle sounds and action! Laser Battle comes complete with two Havoc Helis (each with distinctive markings) and two wireless controllers/chargers (with radio channel selector). You have two-toggle, four-way directional control of dual-rotary blades and a tail rotor fly up, down, left, right, forward, back or hover with amazing precision. You'll need it to survive! Havoc Helis are rated "Easy To Fly," which means with a little practice, anyone can pilot these like a pro.
Amazon.com Product Description
If you enjoy the fun of radio-controlled vehicles, but don't always want to leave the comfort of your couch to go outside and play, check out these Air Hogs Havoc Helicopters. Measuring a mere six inches long and weighing only a half pound, these small but mighty choppers are made for indoor dueling -- so you don't have to quit flying just because of bad weather or a dark sky. A crash-resistant foam fuselage means you can perfect your piloting skills using the dual-toggle, single-throttle wireless controller. The twin drive props in back and dual rotors on top provide exceptional stability and precise six-way directional control -- up, down, left, right, forward, and back. Sled-style landing gear means set-downs should be gentle, too.  | | The tiny flier fits easily in the palm of your hand. | Not just for meant flying solo, the Havoc copters are designed for fun with others. In what is almost like a live video game, each helicopter uses its infrared beam weapons to engage in a mid-air battle against the other. The first pilot to hit his opponent three times with the beam (complete with battle sounds) will be victorious as the enemy heads into a wild tailspin. Six AA batteries are required, but not included, for the remote controls. The helicopters are powered by rechargeable lithium batteries, and the charger comes with the set.

 Delicate choppers. January 8, 2009
M. Smith
I gave these to my 12 and 13 year old grand sons. It took several hours for the boys to get the hang of keeping them from spinning out of control. By the end of the next day one of the helicopters was broken. These are way too fragile for kids to play with.
 Already Broken! January 7, 2009
Rosanna Lynch (NJ, USA)
my son recieve this for christmas and it was in pieces a few days later. Each controller takes six batteries and you charge the heli from the controller. The charge does not last very long and the batteries die quickly. This was an expensive gift and definitely not worth the money.
 good fun January 6, 2009
Mel
It is fairly easy to learn to fly although maneuverability is limited. They continue to fly after numerous crashes and roughlandins.
Son and His Dad Having Fun January 2, 2009
Marie Ruppel (West Babylon, New York United States)
My son asked for this for Christmas this year. It was very pricey but since it was on his "must have" list, we got it. He is not disappointed. He loves to battle with his dad in the air. These helicopters are very fragile but ours have held up so far. If you take care of them, they should last. The battling really would work better in an open room with a high ceiling but it is working okay in the space we have. My son is happy and is enjoying his gift so I gave this toy four stars for fun. I recommend this toy.
 A toy for Young and Old December 30, 2008
Pete the Pilot (Newington, CT USA)
We had a problem right out of the box. The transmitter for one of the choppers had a defective control. And although we were able to fly, it was with some very strange results. It got worse after 2 days and we finally gave up flying the one.
Because Amazon does not replace this item, I called SPINMASTER. I spoke with a lady named LISA. Here was her exact response.
"Please cut one of the blades off the propeller and take a picture of the copter and the paid receipt from Amazon. E-mail them to us and we will send you a whole new set. Here is your case number and you should receive them in two weeks".
So far I call that great customer service. We will find out in two weeks.
The AIR HOGS Havoc Heli Laser Battle is a lot of fun. We are between the ages of 7 to 67. And all of us were able to fly the one working transmitter and copter. A great indoor family activity that teaches both eye and hand co-ordination.
What I liked was the amount of flying time before a recharge was necessary. The charge took about 20 minutes.
Another great point, is that you don't have to plug the chargers into the wall. They charge off of 6 AA's. I call that a green machine.
We look forward to a real battle and many hours of fun.
