Gyro Zoomer RC Helicopter Review – Flight Test!

October 29, 2012 | 2 Comments

With a house full of boys I often have to ensure that they are always entertained and what better way to do this than adding something fun to their toys! namely the Mini Gyro Zoomer RC Helicopter made by THINKGIZMOS. I was asked to review the product to see how well it fared against other mini helicopters on the market. We have bought mini heli’s from other retailers and to be honest they just didn’t last! Can this mini R/C hold it’s own or will it be a flop like the others we have bought in the past?
Gyro Zoomer Mini R/C Helicopter review

Firstly, the Gyro Zoomer R/C Helicopter is tiny! A lightweight design and sits nicely on the palm of my hand.  The Gyro Zoomer comes complete boast the following:

 Gyro Zoomer Mini R/C Helicopter

  • You can buy three upto three of these Zoomers and fly them all at the same time with no signal interference, so for parents with more than one child wanting one of these, don’t worry all the kids can have one!
  • This Gyro Zoomer Mini R/C Helicopter flies multiple ways with quite simplistic direction controls using the Heli control pad that comes with the product. My husband made a mini landing area and tried to land it on there bless him.
  • It’s stability is amazing this helicopter has Gyro Stability control by two weighted arms on the blades. I believe this is the way the helicopter actually levels itself out and you can see how stable it is when you fly it! Unless your my husband that is, ha!
  • When you power your mini helicopter on it actually flashes at the same time with multi colored lights making it rather pretty and more fun to look at whilst in flight. We flew it in the dark a few times and it looks pretty neat if you ask me and my family!
  • The Helicopter itself when charged has a high capacity lithium battery for long playability, the last thing you want is for the Helicopter to stop working mid flight.
  • You can charge the helicopter direct from a USB slot or if you are out for the day, just simply plug it into the controller which is battery operated and the Gyro Zoomer RC Helicopter will charge itself from the batteries!
I ask my husband and children to have a play the with the Gyro Zoomer Mini R/C Helicopter this weekend and they had tons of fun.

Now,  don’t get me wrong. I was very dubious of using this as my husband loves remote controlled helicopters and has been wanting one for a while. Our normal experiences have found they break within the first few flights and end up being thrown away.

Also most are hard to control, lack quality and feel as though they will break almost immediately. This mini heli actually feels quite sturdy and so far we have had no problems at all. This was used for around 2 hours in just one evening and hit the floor on several occasions without a single break. So far so good in my opinion.

You can purchase the gyro zoomer rc helicopter for £19.99 each which is a little steep, but for a quality flight then it seems worth it.

I would highly recommend you purchase this as a Christmas or birthday gift, I am being very honest when I say this provided us with so much fun. My husband has even asked for another one  for Christmas as he doesn’t want to share this one and with two they can compete for the title of No 1 Flyer!.

If you require any further information please do not hesitate to ask, or post some comments!
