Product Description
Product Description
Silverlit’s sensational Heli-Racer incorporates all the favourite features of the Heli-Mission, awarded The Gadget Show’s top flying toy, now offered as a futuristic car and helicopter combo. The 3-channel Heli-Racer chopper will take off from the car upon command, accompanied by automatic sliding doors, LED lights and special sound effects. Smaller and faster than the Heli-Mission truck, the Heli-Racer car is considerably lighter, requires less space for operation and is more manoeuvrable. The remote controlled car may be steered left or right, and driven forwards or backwards. Simply switch the same transmitter to operate either vehicle independently. The attractive Heli-Racer gift box includes a fully assembled car, and ready-to-fly micro helicopter, complete with a pre-installed 3-channel proportional wide beam infrared control system, and an informative flight manual. Suitable for both beginners and enthusiasts, steer the helicopter by simply moving the transmitter joy stick left or right, whilst operating the throttle to take off, hover and land. Stable and fun to fly indoors in a reasonable size room, the Heli-Racer chopper is remarkably robust made of lightweight flexible foam, and features a flashing red power indicator, and switchable blue LED searchlight. The helicopter incorporates a powerful lithium polymer battery and will fly for up to ten minutes, whilst recharging direct from the transmitter in less than half an hour. The Heli-Racer combo is available in red and black livery, on infrared band A. Alternative bands A, B or C allow up to three different Silverlit models to be operated together. Requires 9 x AA alkaline batteries (not included).
Product Description
The Heli-Racer is a smaller, faster and more maneuverable version of the Heli-Mission truck which was featured on Channel Five's "The Gadget Show" and voted top remote controlled toy for Christmas 2009. The Heli Racer features a micro-helicopter which can take off from the car accompanied by flashing L.E.D. lights, sound effects and a fully automatic sliding door. Once airborne the remote control helicopter features a 3 channel infrared control system allowing for superior control. The Heli-Racer features 3-band technology allowing three helicopters to be flown together and comes fully assembled with a built in rechargeable Lithium Polymer Flight Battery which provides 10 minutes of exhilarating flight time and can recharge in as little as 20 minutes (n.b. 6 x 1.5v AA Alkaline Batteries required for Transmitter/Charger)

This heli Racer was an instant hit once we had unpackaged it which took a little time. The 8 year old recipient found it good fun and enjoyed controlling it throughout the house. With his father supervising it even worked very well outside on tarmac despite being classed as an indoor toy. The weather conditions were fine and dry however. The helicopter flew quite high. A slight hitch was the duration of "play" as the frequent need for re-charging could have become a disadvantage if we had not other toys to play with in the meantime. It was good for co-ordination learning as the young lad at first thought he was not a very good driver but practice brought improvement quickly. As the toy is new I cannot as yet vouch for the durability but so far seems to be reasonably durable after the car managed to bounce down half a set of stairs! Could be expensive on batteries as it takes 9 batteries to run it.

Silverlit Heli-Racer 3-Channel Remote Control Car and Helicopter Combo (One Style and Frequency Only)The delivery was quick but the product is inferior for the money, the helicopter does not go above ground level, the car is good. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY

remote control car was fine, nothing special. The helicopter could not lift of the ground, it was charged for a few hours and didn't work, so I left it on charge over night and still no joy. Returned item and ordered a new one, took about a week and same thing again! My six year old was not impressed as this was a birthday present he had on his wish list for a wile, he was watching it on YouTube for weeks!
took a chance with Heli mission, which worked but was very hard to control, propeller broke on the first day when trying to be landed, spares are around £5 + del.
