I bought the helicopter this spring in hopes to again involve Kori however it is simply too dangerous for her to be involved. Spinning blades and a 3 year old do not mix :)

So here is my proposition. I have an AXE EZ camo helicopter. Here is a link to the exact item and the price I paid for it.

This helicopter is actually quite easy to fly and have some fun with. It took me about an hour or so to get myself used to all the controls. If you want to become proficient with it you'll have to spend some time with it. It will come with a dvd on set up and basic flying techniques. I will include some extra sets of blades incase you run it into a wall or chair or somthing. I've only damaged one set of blade and that was after a couple chair leg hits. Thing is very durable and comes with special training landing gear.


Any who, most of the description is above. This chopper comes with a rechargable LiPo battery. If you know anything about batteries you'll understand what Lithiums do. They last for a long time and since this is not a lithium ion and is actually a lithium polymer, it is rechargable. It will come with a charger that should charge it in around an hour. You'll get around 15 minutes of fly time (give or take) off each charge.

I'm looking to pick up another marker as a back up. For the price of this I'm thinking along the lines of e-cockers, ions, promasters, and the like. If you want to buy it outright, I'm looking for around $145 can work though with the price.

Well if you have questions please ask, and if you have somthing to offer please do that too. I really would like to see this go to someone who would use it.

Thanks
Nick
