The Dragon 4-channel Co-axial RC Helicopter

First flight the helicopter hit the ceiling and the tail rotor assembly broke beyond repair. The main rotor control module on the left side had no return spring and as a result the helicopter flew up into the ceiling.

Upon purchasing this heli, I was excited to finally own one after wanting one for so long. I had purchased this after a watching a video review of the product (or what looked like a similar, identical brand). It had the ability to go side to side as well as front to back. It was reasonably priced and there were great reviews up. It took about 30 minutes to get a good charge in it to get it in the air, as expected. Upon starting it up, I was getting familiar with the controls and not going overboard with throttle. This was used inside. After adjusting for the initial spin I began to have control of the helicopter. After using the helicopter after 10 minutes, the rear blade broke. Had it been the blade itself, there would not have been a problem, however, the arm connecting the blade to the helicopter broke and I am now unable to move forward or backwards. All of a sudden the helicopter was unable to tilt forward or go back. While I understand that these helicopters aren't made like tanks, it would be great to know that they could handle a crash or two without breaking. All other components work, however, I can only maneuver by moving sideways. It is a very expensive toy to only use a few times and now unable to do anything about it.

I bought this for my boyfriend for Xmas It flew very well for two minutes then he landed it on the carpet where it fell on its side and the central pole part of the propellers dislodged and will not click back into place.Now it won't fly. pros It is very sturdy in all other places and has very cool lights.

I got this heli for christmas and it flew very well. Held up after a few low altitude crashes ( 2-5 feet) until this last one. I was about a foot off the ground when the battery died and it came down. Landed on its side which stopped the rotor immediately. After I recharged it and turned it on, the bottom rotor wouldnt spin at all, the top one was fine though. I took the canopy off and found that the gear that spins the rotor shaft had stripped off! Couldve used something a little more durable for the gears. I realize i crashed it but you ARE going to crash, its inevitable.

• How accurate was the sizing? Fine

• Was the product free of any manufacturer defects? Besides cheap materials, yes
