This is probably one of the knock-offs that come in from China.  Be
careful.  They DO NOT fly that well.  You should only buy Air Hogs or
Silverlit brand.  Air Hogs are licensed by SIlverlit to make these
helicopters.  Silverlit was the original, the rest are knock-offs.  I have
bought several and found out the hard way.  Take it from someone that has
been into RC since 1965.  These little helicopters look simple, but they
are a very sophisticated design.  Cut corners, ie. $10 copter, and it will
not fly very well.  Try Ebay.  They are all over it.
