Microgear Mini R/C Helicopter

The Microgear Mini Helicopter is a tiny R/C chopper in the same vein as the widely popular Silverlit Picco Z. In fact looking at the two models its difficult to distinguish between the two. Microgear's toy comes after the Picco Z and can be seen as a less expensive alternative.

The same up-down, left-right controls are featured on the remote that communicates with the chopper in one of two channels. Unlike the Picco Z's quick recharging time, Microgear's chopper takes an estimated 3 hours to charge the battery which gives a total flight time of 10 minutes. Another micro helicopter is the Palmsize R/C Helicopter from ThinkGeek.
