Cool toy5
Looks cooler than the standard picoo z, but not quite as stable. The original will hover in one spot (without weights), whereas this apache variation seems to pendulum quite a bit, and is less tolerant of minor air currents. The trim also seems more finicky. This is my second picoo z (and the 7th I've bought including presents). I wouldn't expect it to last forever, as despite surviving many crashes, the motors seem to be the weak point of the ones family and I have owned. If you really enjoy this toy (as an adult!), at £20 you may want to try seeing it as a consumable item, rather than a one off purchase!

Loads of fun!!5
I bought the Apache helicopter for my boyfriends birthday and he loved it. we both found that it takes a bit of time to get used to and to work out how to control it, but once you have worked it out it's loads of fun!! If you do have high ceilings in your house, it would be an advantage - he doesnt so you are limited on the height that you can fly it to!! A great toy - fun for all ages whether watching or playing!!

Great little helicopter!5
I've had four Picooz's so far and this one is by far the best. It's really, really easy to fly - I have had some experience, so might be slightly different for a newby - but it's easy. And it looks much cooler than most of the others. I do like the Insecta series too but that would be the only as-cool-looking ones.
Overall I'd give it 10 out of 10. The only thing is that it says these helicopters would be indestructable, well they are not. If you crash them 50 times from 2-3 metres down on a stone floor they won't survive, but they are strong and won't fall a apart in an instance.
I guess if you love these little things you will have to buy a new one from time to time or at least until you're experienced enough to not crash them anymore.
Make sure to take them back to the dealer if they behave funny from the start - they shoudn't - they are easy to fly, if they aren't then there's something wrong.
