Nice!!!

I have a micro-mosquito... it's a blast!  But it's a pain to control... how easy is the Picooz to fly? :aok

I don't know how the micro-mosquito behave but I've read somewhere the picooz was worst :(

But for about  35$  it doesn"t really matter :)

I ordered two of these off Ebay for my sons a couple weeks ago (Paid $70 total for 2 with shipping/handling included...seemed like a good deal)

They are addicting, its kept the boys busy on rainy days during this past spring break week. :aok

They are not as controllable as you're lead to believe.  Use of the little "lead stickers" that come with it can help you control the copter alittle more predictably.

Just a minute amount of weight changes the flight characteristics. Its impossible to do with this small of copter.

I got one. Directional flight is a dream, aint gonna happen. It is kinda fun to see how long you can hover the thing though.

So your acm suffers if you add some weight to it eh? They havent modeled the copter right then so i would protest. A real copter could take a camera!
