5 out of 5 stars Picco Z - What a Toy   June 20, 2008
I was not even planning to buy this toy, let alone know about it in the first place... My work Colleague just mentioned about it and then i just watched a couple of youtube's and then the next thing im handing my credit card details to Amazon and the best part if im not buying one but 2 one for me and my colleague...

About the Picco Z itself... Well im pretty impressed with its durability because ive crashed it a million times already and except for the tail rotor everything has held up to what they say it will... But saying that i guess the people who make or sell this stuff know that the tail rotor will not survive the rigerous crashes so the spare rotor was a welcome smile...

U do need practice and a bit of modification like a paperclip on the nose to make it move forward and to give more stability and trust me once u are up and running u'll be impressed. The 10 min might sound too little but with the amount of effort u have to put in to control and fly this baby it feels like ur up for 30 min at least...

It is an indoors toy because even the slightest breeze can throw u off course and give the choper a mind of its own but hey on a good sunny day with no wind ur gold...



3 out of 5 stars faster then then the normal pico's but comes with a price   April 18, 2008

faster and better then the normal pico z's but they don'nt take as much punishment. So just make sure you don't crash to much with this one as they can't take it. ive gone through 2 tail motors and a rotor.

These little helicopters are excellent, i bought 3 as xmas pressie and have been asked lots of times 'where did you get that from, i'd love one!" my kids all have one as they can be flown on different frequencies, they are more robust then they look, would reccomend them to anyone for any age!


5 out of 5 stars Amazing little toy for everyone!   December 30, 2007

I bought my boyfriend one of these for Christmas after seeing them on other websites and in a few shops. At first I was a little apprehensive about how durable it would be as it's only made from polystyrene! But when he opened it Christmas day he loved it! It's really easy to set up. You just put the batteries in the controller, turn both the helicopter and the controller on and start flying the mini chopper. We crashed it into loads of things including the Christmas tree and the TV and it's stayed in one peace so far! I really recommend getting one, they are loads of fun to play and addictive when you get the hang of it.

Bought this for my 12 year old son and also for a 37 year old friend. Both of them have had endless fun with these things. It's simple to use and flys pretty much straight out of the box. Needs 6 AA size batteries for the transmitter and you're off. You can "kind of" fly it round the room with a bit of twitchig on the left and right controls, but if you're looking for a fully flying helicopter, this isn't for you, although a bit of bluetac on the tip of the craft has you whizzing round the front room in no time. Crashed my sons one more times than I've had hot dinners, but you just pick it up, stand it back on it's feet, and full throttle and you're off again. This thing is great fun, and recommended simply for the fun factor. One word of warning... If you buy one for your kids, secretly get yourself one too, cos your kids wont get a go!!!!!
