Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

The PicooZ is the ultimate flying experiences from Silverlit--the experts in flying right out of the box. The PicooZ weighs only 10 grams, about the same as a packet of crisps! But don't buy the crisps, instead check out the video and read about all the fun you can have with this slim-line, infrared-controlled, precision flying machine.

At six inches long and fitting comfortably in the palm of your hand, the PicooZ incorporates a stable system of flight to ensure a 'straight out of the box experience'. Supremely responsive, you control it via an innovative, two-channel, proportional wide-beam infra red system. This effectively works like a TV remote and means you avoid poking out the eyes of loved ones--a risk with more traditional telescopic aerials!

PicooZ has 2 powerful micro motors, which are powered by a built in Lithium Polymer flight battery and enable flights of 10 minutes or more. Recharge takes less than half an hour with the portable charger provided. The PicooZ also has a strobe LED (blue) for those night manoeuvres, while the auto stability system makes for a speedy pilot's license. Made of expanded polypropylene foam, the PicooZ can be flown indoors or outdoors (in calm conditions) and can take a few knocks while remaining in flyable condition. Spare rotor blades are available for purchase separately.

Please note: we are unable to select the colour or channel of the helicopter you will receive.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great Fun!, 8 Jun 2007
    Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars 
    It's a great toy and alot of fun for the price. The controls allow you to alter the speed of the main rotor to alter the lift, also the speed of the tail rotor to turn the helicopter. With judicious application of the stick on weights you can balance the model so that it drifts forward when in stable flight. It takes a bit of practice to get this thing to go in roughly the direction you want it too but that is half the fun.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Fun but more fragile than you might think., 2 Sep 2007
    By Collins (Surrey, UK) - See all my reviews
    Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:4.0 out of 5 stars 
    This is more of a toy for 14+ than little kids - it's difficult to learn to fly, but you do learn a bit about the physics of helicopters in doing so, so I suppose it's not so bad to have a learning curve.

    It's definitely very fun. Whizzing it round the house, teasing the cat and seeing where I could land it (On top of the TV - 3 points, On the lampshade - 10 points, Out of the window and on top of the gazebo - 25 points etc...)!

    A couple of things I would like to alert possible buyers are:

    1) The tail rotors - You only get 2 (one on the chopper and a second spare). The fitting for the tail rotors can get worn out, causing the helicopter to spin uncontrolably. If this occurs, you will need to move on to the spare. The tail rotors are also very fragile, and will crack if you whack the helicopter into a wall, hit a venetian blind or tangle it up amongst wires.

    2) Don't do what my mate did and try to make it take off from your head. You WILL get your hair tangled and cry like a baby.

    3) The helicopter moves with a surprising amount of force. Avoid hitting anything delicate. Also watch out for bits of paper that might be lying about, as they can get blown away.

    I paid £30 for my Picoo, and I still think it was worth that much. Buy it and enjoy it - just be careful!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Addictive toy!!, 1 July 2007
    By M. Swift (Durham, UK) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 
    My nephew bought me this as a Christmas gift & I haven't stopped playing with it since! I found that it required a little more nose weight to give it forward momentum (Blue Tack sorted that out)but once I had added the extra nose weight it flew beautifully. As a former pilot I can tell you it's flight characteristics are quite realistic & once you get the hang of the slight delay from the infra red transmitter the helicopter is very controllable. It is an indoor toy only as the infra red transmitter requires walls to bounce the 'beam' to the helicopter & as it's made from styrofoam any light breeze would blow it away. Initially I broke a couple of tail rotors on our laminate floor but these are available in packs of 3 from Firebox.com quite cheaply - since then I've taken to flying it in carpeted areas of the house! Buy one, you certainly won't be disappointed!
