Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I have a small squadron of mini helicopters and this one is by far the best so far. I read great reviews of the Syma S107. I was quite pleased with it compared to some of the older Syma models. Then I saw the positive reviews for this and thought I would give it a go. It flies incredibly well! Quiter than the other seven helicopters I have and so stable, smooth, and responsive. It is a little slow with forward and reverse momentum, but not bad. Slow is easier to control...maybe that was intentional. We fly these every day in the office and this hands down outperforms everthing else. For those comparing models, here you go: Syma S109 Apache- Excellent Syma S105G (Sport Helicopter) Very Good -Fastest, stable, but somewhat loud, durable metal frame Syma S107G- (Sport Helicopter) Very good- nearly identical to S105 but a little slower, different scheme,older? Syma S026 Chinook- Looks cool, flies ok, but hard to control. Too much power for its weight; 'Cieling magnet' Syma S013 Black Hawk- Horrible! Very light, spins uncontrollably, fragile Syma S013 Apache- See S013 Black Hawk review. (friend purchased this one to join the fun: nothing but regrets) Heard the S108G Cobra is good too but haven't tried it. My deployment to Iraq is almost over, so I probably won't be buying any more toys.
