Well guess what beans picked up at Toys R Us today

Same bang for the buck as the aero ace, but indoor style. Tons of fun.

Max, the lipos should be ok discharge wise for bits- Note that they are 50 mah. The main motor is a 6mm bit size motor and the tail is a 4mm motor. Gets a runtime of about 5-10 minutes or something. Not really sure with mine. Other people are saying 10 minutes, but I think its a bit less.

I'm with max. I want two!!!

beanoman · Post by **beanoman** » Sat Aug 26, 2006 12:57 pm

Well, I want an additional 2 of em...

$30, same company producing them as the aero ace, cells are from the same company that the aero ace cells were from, although this one was designed by a 'pro' micro heli-ist

.

Better believe its RTF- I took 6 aa batteries and a screwdriver to open up the tx battery compartment in the car and had it running on the way home!

The cells are just awsome really- 50 mah, 1.5 grams, delivers almost full capacity at 15c

Yep, she's a keeper. My ex would only think about doing that around some gift season, and then say that was one of my presents.

Payaso what TRU did you pick yours up at and was there any left?

You bunch of filthy whore, taco eatin bitches!!! I was actually able to stay away from getting the Aero Ace since it's a flyer and as small as it is, it would still need some space to be able to fly/glide...But a goddamned Heli can HOVER and has a vertical take-off (I could well fly the thing right within my cubicle area at work!!), so now I'm going to have to make a run to the TRU and see if they have any and if not, then I'll have to order it from Ratshack.

Hmmm, I wonder if I could have my local Ratshack order it in...Then I could use my $10 coupon on it?

I picked mine up at the store in Tyrone... Corner of Tyrone, and 22nd Ave north. They had a couple left.... I will be picking a few more up. These things are kick ass, and can actually be flown.

You all should get a few.
