Air Hogs Havoc Laser Battle set reviewed


A surprising result from this highly anticipated test:
"I love the Havoc helis, and I think the very idea of a battle set is truly awesome, but the quirks that showed up when two were flown together really let me down. Given the other feedback from regular buyers I've read on the Internet, I think the Havoc Laser Battle sets are a hit-and-miss affair, where you may be taking a gamble when you buy one. Maybe it'll work out, maybe it won't. As much as I hate to say it, I'm going to have to recommend that the buyer beware. "
Grade: C-

Air Hogs Reflex micro RC heli


Check out the Air Hogs Reflex review on RC Mania. The Reflex, originally called the Helix, is a three-channel micro RC helicopter that uses a three-channel radio system and lightweight, high-powered lithium polymer (LiPo) battery. It was a pioneer in micro helis because it was the first one of its size that was so controllable in flight, yet available to the masses at very reasonable price.

Here's the summary of the review:
"The Reflex is the real deal, a micro-sized helicopter that's stable enough to be flown around a room. It needs some adjustment right out of the box, but once you get it right, it's fun to fly. I wish it was possible to really hover in one
place in the air, but it's so light that any breeze at all (even its own) moves it around, so I'll settle for really slow, controllable flight. The Reflex is a keeper for me. "
