Just a quick follow up. I got a 3rd one, it works just as good as the other two. I've since had a lot more time to fly them and I like them more all the time. I've dropped them from as high as 4 stories on solid pavement and they continue to fly perfectly. They handle well in wind, though strong wind will quickly over power the 40 percent rate setting. 60 or 80 percent might be better in strong wind. 100pcnt is too much, it's very difficult to fly with that setting. A light misty rain doesn't seem to hurt them at all. The overall range is excellent, you can fly as far away as visual range will permit. The low battery indicator gives very little time to react though, you have to be ready to land it almost immediately after they start blinking. Overall I'm pleased with these things and they satisfy the need for quick and casual line of sight flying. It's hard to ask for more in this price range.

I ordered two of these and I really enjoy them. Though they look similar to the Estes ProtoX and the Hubsan H111, they handle quite a bit differently. The yaw rate is slower, but the rate at which it tilts is much higher. They are very sensitive for this reason, it takes a bit to get used to. Once you get used to it, they fly excellent. Some people say the accelerometer gets stuck, but I have yet to experience this with either unit I own. It's very easy to do flips in all directions. It has little rubber nubs under each motor, making landing much easier than the ProtoX/H111. The TX is actually quite nice, it has a good feel to it. I consider it vastly superior to what comes with the ProtoX/H111. For $20, it's pretty much impossible to beat. However, I have to knock one star off quality because one of them didn't come with a charger. If it wasn't for that, I would be 100pcnt satisfied.

Works alright, Props are a bit high off cg, Lights are really bright. Flips are sloppy, and wont hover (even when trimmed). Very poor instructions, but ample videos online. The Propellers are to shallow in pitch need to Bend a little(fixes hovering issues). Also the canopy occasionally colides ith the props as it is week and already white from ware.

The worst part is is that the props are way to loose, they fly off in mid air! Its terrifying!
