I bought the proper ihelicopter from paramountzone.co.uk just over a week ago and its superb! They are the latest and best models. cheaper ebay ones are not as good.

Its very tough. I've smashed mine into the ground at high speed several times and not a mark on it. It comes with spare blades but the chassis is made of metal so is quite tough. Parts are easy to get as well.

One thing though, it doesnt work as yet on ICS. Not that its ready for our GS2 yet but just thought i would mention it.

I was looking at those, but one thing worries me (that was mentioned) - what if suddenly ... phone call ...
Some model with WiFi would be much better I guess.
Anyone knows about such heli?

Hi TeDev,

good old friend from the WinMo times. I was searching if there an iHelicopter thread and yeah, it is. I have collected a lot of information and software and links on the internet. So think i have to start one thread for android software and theme things. I had have contact too with some company's who deliver and support things. Possible we can make with this little tiny adult toys.

I mean all the fooly hardware named iXXXXX tool or what ever. There are a lot outside. So i am not an Apple man, never..... but the things are cool thats all. And i have mor iStuff to tell .

So be prepared for a new thread around iStuff on Android, he, he.

BTW:
it is good to see you aganin bro...
