Amazon.com Product Description
With the world's record for the smallest remote-controlled helicopter, the Air Hogs Havoc Heli goes where no other flying object can. Recommended for ages eight and up, this incredible little R/C heli from Spinmaster is easy and fun for kids of all ages -- even grown up ones.

Realistic Helicopter Fun
The Havoc Heli has twin rotors for stability and four-way control for flying in any direction with accuracy -- up, down, under, over, left, right, forward and backward. Like a real helicopter, the Havoc can hover in one spot. It even manuevers through the toughest of obstacles. Intended for indoor use, the helicopter operates outdoors with zero wind conditions, and can fly up to 100 feet high in the air. The Havoc Heli is also equipped with a flashing blue LED light for night flying.

Friendly competition
Not just for flying solo, the Havoc Heli is designed for fun with your friends. With three selectable frequencies, up to three Air Hogs helicopters can fly in the same room at the same time. Beyond flying for fun, the hook attachment on the bottom of the helicopter picks up objects for top secret racing missions -- with or againsts friends.

Tough, Tiny, And Ready To Fly
Measuring six inches long and weighing only ten grams, the Havoc fits in the palm of a hand. Extraordinarily lightweight, the helicopter is built for crash resistance with a flexible, high-impact EPP foam body. The internal battery offers twice the amount of flight time as other R/C helicopters. The remote control charges the rechargeable LIPO battery in 15 minutes, providing six minutes of flight time. The remote requires 6 "AA" batteries (not included). Available in yellow, blue, and red, the Havoc Heli comes completely assembled and ready to fly.

What's in the Box

Extraordinarily lightweight, the helicopter is built for crash resistance and manuverability, and fits in the palm of your hand.

5 out of 5 stars oh my god the BEST   November 30, 2008
Agnes G. (Florida)

There are not a lot of great toys that are as fun or affordable as the Air Hogs Havoc Heli, or one that looks this realistic and cool. Check out the appearance and detail. This remote controlled helicopter can reach 100 feet in height and is so durable; you can crash it into houses, cars and directly into the ground without damage to anything. That's because it is made out of a flexible foam body. It's only about six inches long, so you can fly it indoors and out. Plus, it operates just like any real helicopter does. The maneuverability of this little helicopter is truly amazing. Can you imagine if you and some other friends have a few of these? You could dive-bomb, outmaneuver or chase each other for hours. The remote is very easy to use and uses two AA batteries. The helicopter has a rechargeable battery. Unlike the expensive remote helicopters of years past, the Air Hogs helicopter is a great gift and will last. I wish I had one as a kid!


4 out of 5 stars Havoc Heli is Fun   November 12, 2008
C. Davis (Georgia)
I bought the Havoc Heli for my 9 year old nephew. He loves it. The fact that it can be flown indoor is especially nice. The only problem we have with it is that the trim does not seem to work well and it will not fly forward very well. It lifts off very easily and can hover, but no matter what we try, it will not fly forward. He still likes it in spite of that. For the price, it is a good toy for a child his age.


5 out of 5 stars Move the charging cord to the back   November 6, 2008

I'm really enjoying this little helicopter. It is the first I've owned. It took a little while to learn how to fly it, but now that I've got it down I'm having a lot of fun with it.

The helicopter weighs 10.3 grams. A quarter, dime and penny weighs about the same.

Charge time: 18 minutes
Flight time: 8 minutes.
I'm tempted to get two more, so I'll always have one charged up. It's actually good that it has down time. You won't ever get caught up in playing it and not notice how late it is until the sun starts to come up.

Two items in the description are totally wrong: "four-way control for flying in any direction with accuracy -- up, down, under, over, left, right, forward and backward" No - the 4 ways are up, down, right and left. You can't control forward and back during flight. "hook attachment on the bottom" There isn't a hook or any place to put one.

It is strong enough to drop the 9 feet from my ceiling to the floor without any problems. I've slammed it into the wall many times and it was fine. I haven't flown it in the kitchen, because I KNOW it would immediately decide to see what is behind the fridge. I loves to check out what is behind all the big heavy furniture. Might as well buy a swiffer at the same time. This copter finds all the hidden spots you've neglected to dust.

From what I've read, you shouldn't run the battery all the way down. That will ruin it. Charge it up before you put it away. This kind of battery doesn't like to get too hot, or too cold either. Try to keep it at room temperature even when storing it.

The lid on the cord compartment holds the cord straight up, right behind the joysticks. That's the worst place they could have put it. I only put it back in the storage compartment when I'm done playing with it. I cut a notch on the back of the lid with a file. That way I can close the lid with the cord coming out of the back of the controller, and it doesn't get in the way during flights. Also, the copter stands on it's feet during charging instead of laying on it's side. (I uploaded a photo illustrating the problem and solution).

I put a paperclip on the rotor boom to prevent forward motion while I was learning to fly it. I use a bit of clay on the nose instead of the foil stickers in the package. The clay is easy to adjust.

I found it is much easier to just launch from my hand. I hold the bottom fins between two fingers, give it enough power to support itself then let go. When launching it from the ground it immediately turns and flies off in an unpredictable direction. If I get it up to speed while holding it, I can release it and it will stay about where I let it go.

It can usually right itself when it's laying on the floor. I'm sure this is bad for the rotors, but it's kind of a fun challenge to get it stood back up and take off from where it fell without touching it.

Even the slightest breeze will affect it.

It uses 6 AA batteries in the controller. The helicopter recharges from the controller so there aren't any separate batteries required for the helicopter. Get a set of rechargeable batteries, especially if you are giving this to a kid.

You need to use a screwdriver to open the battery compartment - pretty inconvenient. I think that's a poor design choice.[..].

This is really a great deal and a heck of a lot of entertainment for the price.



3 out of 5 stars Not great, but ok.   November 4, 2008
Lesley Montenaro (Hagaman, NY United States)
My son was thrilled with this toy initially, but the tail broke after only a few minutes of flying. The upside is that it could be easily fixed with tape. All in all it's not the greatest toy and it is somewhat difficult to fly, but it is ok. Because it's difficult to fly, my son lost interest after a few days.
