Hefty Helix Not High-Flying Fun

Spin Master has some pretty cool RC toys in their Air Hogs line, such as the all terrain Storm Launcher and the really easy-to-fly Aero Ace (my son got one for Christmas). But their Helix RC helicopter isn't their best effort. While it does have some entertainment value, and hovers nicely, it's more difficult to fly than a toy helicopter should be. And it looks clunky too. I give it 3 stars out of 5. If you find one on sale, it wouldn't be a total waste of money, but in my opinion the original retail price of around $60US is just too much for this little heli.
