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.

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.

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.
