Customer Review: Totally Rad... My Favroite Toy Helicopter on the Market
The Air hogs Robo Recon flying helicopter is the best toy that I have experienced from Air hogs. The Robo Recon has a great concept. A small flyable toy that can hover, turn left, right, ascend and decline altitude with a touch oh a button. The tiny foam composite of the Heli is relatively durable yet cannot take a lot of impact. At first the Robo-Copter is very difficult to handle. I recommend that you start flying in a soft open room with relatively no furniture and no other people. By the 3rd day of flying, I noticed that the feet from my heli was coming apart. I took some glue and stent 20-40 minuites holding the glue in place. The remote is very easy to use. The throtle is very smooth and there is no need to keep your finger on it. Unlike the havoc heli, the robo recon is very easy to fly. I am able to turn with pinpoint accuracy as well as hover for a very long time. On the tail of the recon there is a counter weight that can be slid towards the main body or back towards the tail to go slowly. WARNING: WHEN YOU BEGIN THERE IS A TENDENCY TO RUN INTO WALLS AND DROP FROM THE AIR. THIS CAN CAUSE EXTENSIVE DAMAGE SO BEGINNERS BE WARE. This is my favorite toy from air hogs and I recommend it to all lovers of the air hogs brand.Air hogs Robo Recon : Spinmaster Air Hogs
Customer Review: OK, not great
In summary, either get a Spinmaster Air Hogs Havoc Heli (Colors May Vary), Spinmaster Air Hogs Battling Havoc R/C Helicopters, or Reflex Helicopter: 27.195 MHz - Yellow. Treat the product links as starting points for shopping around. There are likely better prices. The battling version of the havoc comes with two helis that fly about the same as the normal havoc, so get the best deal. : Spinmaster Air Hogs
OK, robo recon. It's heavier than a havoc, so is a bit more controllable. However, the reflex is more controllable than the robo recon.
I have to hand launch because the landing legs were weak, flexible, uneven, and stuck to the rug. Luckily, they quickly broke off. Flight characteristics were not noticeably changed with the legs gone. : Spinmaster Air Hogs
My plan for the robo recon is to chop up the styrofoam body and maybe stick landing skids on it. Or use it for parts. : Spinmaster Air Hogs
Regardless, shop around a bit. If the robo recon costs less than the havoc, then it is an OK choice. Especially if you aren't shy with the hobby knife. : Spinmaster Air Hogs
