Those look a little on the flimsy side ... I buy them and RC Trucks from this place below and haven't had any complaints/problems with any of them items. http://www.amainhobbies.com/advance...5&pto=125&sort=mdl&filter_mfr=&filter_cat=707
I've got this one "Blade CX2 RTF Electric Coaxial Helicopter w/Spektrum DSM [EFLH1250]" from the above link. It flies great. Not too hard for a teen/adult. Maneuvers great. The gears on the rotor may strip, but you can get them in Raleigh or online for about 3$. Battery last about 10 mins / charge. My opinion, spend less than $150 to get a childrens toy. Spend more than $250, you need to know how to fly it. Counter rotating blades are best for occasional fliers.
I had a real nice one a while back when I was in the Navy. used to fly it off the Flight deck. Had a great time with it. they are hard to learn though. every thing works in reverse at a split second when you turn arround to come back. I had payed about $900.00 for mine and that was back in the late 70s. It was Huge and looked like a real Chopper. But to me it was worth every penny. remember you get what you pay for. like the previouse post says. spend little get a kids toy that only lasts for a few minutes. spend what you are willing to fly and eventualy break a few times. it will happen. but the enjoyment was well worth it.
