This looks like a must have heli. It's about time someone came out with something like this! You can buy optional glow-in-the-dark parts for it,too.

PS.. Rick, is this the single-rotor heli you had mentioned to me?

AC,
From what little I know about helis, small single rotors are harder to fly than you would think. Of course being as small as it is, it would have to hit awfully hard to do major damage.

That is the one I mentioned Andrew... It is a fixed pitch heli but E-flite claims that they have made it very stable so that it is not as difficult to fly as the other nano sized ones. I think it will be a definite winner for indoor flying.

Well, I'm done with the co-axle stuff. All the blade collisions made it not much fun. I was always wanting to bank it more than I should, which caused blade collisions and then having to buy new canopy sets, new props, fly bars, etc... Now this heli looks like little gem. I can easily see myself flying this thing around my back yard and having a ton of fun, without having to as concerned about banking it too hard or breaking parts as easily. Thanks for telling me about this, Rick!
Here is an interview with Jim Booker at Horizon Hobby about this new heli.

My Son got one of these helis for Christmas..... Its brilliant!
We both fly this heli in the living room and its that stable you can go hands free on the radio and leave it there in the hover for several seconds. Its very robust and thus far both my son and I have hit allsorts of household objects ranging from ceilings to televisions through to Xmas tree's and walls with no damage whasoever!
if you have a Spectrum radio buy the BNF version, if you dont, buy a Spectrum radio and then a Blade msr, you wont regret the fun you can have with this heli.... !
In my opinion.... Best Value for Money Well Spent!!
