FYI, most of the (cheaper) RC helicopters are butt-ugly <G>... quite strange designs, but I guess that's what they have to do to get a small micro RC helicopter controllably airborne <G>.

@All, another one is sold by "Jasman Toys" ( http://www.jasmantoys.com ), the "Spin Blade" ( http://www.flight-factory.com ). BTW, I have their "guideline" RC (for lack of a better term) version of it, the "Command Force Series 1 Micro Chopper Patrol" <G> ( http://www.commandforcetoys.com/products.htm ) -> http://www.commandforcetoys.com/images/cpmini.jpg (mine is the Apache, not the one pictured here) -

They also sell a larger version of the chopper, but I bought the small one (kinda cramped here in my travel trailer out in the woods <BG>). I saw it at K-Mart, and was fondly reminded of a similar one to that I had when I was a kid... much larger than this modern version, but not half as detailed. Hehe, had no choice but to buy it <BG> -
