I know this is not a "micro" helicopter, but still a fun kit, especially if you want to start building/flying micro helicopters. They sell it in germany for 165 Euro (about 160 US). The only thing the kit needs is battery, the rest is all there (radio/ Piccoboard -it's all there). Go to www.elv.de click on "Freizeit-Modellsport" and the click on "Hubscrauber". It's all in german, but they are very good at answering in English. This is a very good and cheap way to start with helicopters!!!

WOW! The price has droped.

I looked into those when the first came out and they were much more expensive.

Well I ordered that helicopter in Germany, but didn't get it yet. But when I looked at their hobby catalogue, the price for this kit was about $350

So I am not really counting on getting it for the low price they have on their web page... Still hoping, but I am afriad that they have made a mistake...
