Consumer Reviews

I have some of the very same feelings as "D. Hull" in his critique. I had consistently wanted a RC helicopter, but identified them to be too costly until recently. And then I located the Spy Hawk RC LT-711 RC helicopter. When I bought this, I thought the built in digital camera with mini-SD card that can be activated through remote was a genius thought. It was a sleek seeking helicopter with a camera, lights, and the cost was wonderful. It looked too fantastic to be correct...and it was. Right here are my observations from my encounter in the couple of days I have had this.
1) The instruction manual is the worst one I have ever noticed...EVER. It was written in broken English and is riddled with grammatical errors and other statements that just make no sense. To begin with, it is a compact leaflet with eight pages, 2 of which are pictures of spare components (but, of course, there is no directions on how to really replace any parts will need to anything break). Where's the rest? This manual is awfully skimpy for a RC helicopter with a camera. Right here are a handful of gems, but there are lots a great deal more. I am not utilizing poor grammar here. These are direct quotes from the instruction manual:
-"Notice: When the airplane is away from the ground in 30cm position, the helicopter will suffer by itself blade vortex to turn out to be unstable, we call it 'effect response', when the helicopter height lower, and the 'effect response' influence will be bigger."
-"Notice: When the indicator of the controller is sparkle, which shows the controller is lack of power. And you can transform some batteries for it."
There are also parts labeled in the instruction manual in which there is no explanation or instruction supplied, such as the "voltage indicator" on the remote and "two speed mode" button. How do these function? Who knows? The instruction manual does not inform you.
The instruction manual also indicates this helicopter is for ages 14+, but the box clearly says ages eight+. This sort of discrepancy really should by no means exist, but in my private opinion, I would not give this to an eight year old.
two) The digital camera does not work reliably. I got it to record a handful of seconds of test video, but just after placing the mini SD card back in the helicopter, it only recorded a blank file. For every single five of 6 blank files it would record, the camera would in fact record 1 video, only to go back to creating blank files.
three) Battery capacity is inconsistent. The instruction manual says "Do not charge more than 60-70 minutes". To me, that indicates soon after 70 minutes of charging and then unplug it from the charger. Proper? Will failure to do so harm the battery? I don't know. Again, the instruction manual does not say. There is an indicator light that goes from red to green when the battery is finished charging. 1 time, it showed it was charged soon after about 70 to 75 minutes of charging. The outcome? The helicopter's battery provided about two minutes of flying time. The following charge, it took two hours until the battery indicated it was charged. That time, the helicopter flew for about 1 minute, but could not be controlled in the air. The propellers would just spin and the helicopter wouldn't get off the ground once more immediately after I landed it.
three) The helicopter is very complicated to control outside. It was a sunny day, 54 degrees and no wind. Forward and reverse controls did tiny to control the movement of the helicopter.
I have followed what small instructions were provided and have not crashed the helicopter in the little time it really flew. But following only a few flights, it isn't recording video, has an inconsistent and unreliable battery charging system and battery capacity. And, worse yet, the helicopter now will not even get off the ground.
If this had been a trustworthy item that did what was advertised and had a additional thorough and understandable instruction manual, I would be happy to personal this helicopter and recommend it to others.
I will be returning this helicopter and I welcome anyone's ideas for a even more dependable item.

This small toy was particularly satisfying. It did what was advertised and then some more. Don't worry about the instruction mannual. If you have any capacity to read between the lines you can figure out the mannual. Truly it was somewhat entertaining. The helicopter is fairly sturdy as it has crashed countless occasions and comes back for a great deal more abuse. Don't fly it outside if there is any wind. The video camera is incredible and runs for as extended as the helicopter is flying which lasts for 5 minutes or far more. The excellent of the video is better than was expected. I paid $104 plus shipping of $38 due to Christmas deadline but have seen it discounted at Frys for $70. Have enjoyable!
