AWESOME Bird!!,December 1, 2012
By Hitman
The S800G is a GREAT little helicopter. I just got mine and with the smaller controller and the improved speed and capabilities of this bird, it took a little getting used to. But it is AWESOME!!!!! It is quite fast and has abilities that the, also incredible, S107G doesn't. It is great for indoors but beware of it's speed and agility and get ready for a WILD ride!!!!!!
I recommend the S800G for anyone who enjoys micro choppers and is looking for added fun and excitement!!!
Thanks THINKRC!!!!!!!

Powerful flyer,January 7, 2013
By Joe
Bought the S800G along with 2 S107G's, just to compare the differences. Glad I did, the S800G is a S107G on steroids, it leaps off the ground and is ready to do everything the 107 can and more, as it has roll right or left, it will fly sideways or bank in the turns. That is a skill I have not yet mastered, but it's fun working on it. The forward shining LED is very useful for determining orientation at a distance. Note: the controls, especially the throttle, are a bit touchier than the S107G, but work great with practice. As with the S107G the charging plug is small & polarized, marking one side helps. The manual for this heli is written in such mangled english as to be hilarious, I would give an example, but hate to spoil it for anyone. The 4ch contoller for the S800G will also operate the S107G, and the charging cables seem to identical. Get one of these you won't be sorry. Think.RC-FedEx ground delivery was 4 days, 1 day early, CA to IN, all plusses.

Totally cool!,March 18, 2013
By The Slice
I love this bird! So much fun to fly. It takes a beating and still flying strong. The controls are sensitive and react great. It's tough at first but you'll get the hang of it in no time. I have the S107g as well. It's fun but the 800g is more realistic. I'm glad I upgraded for just a few bucks more. Only bummer with these little birds is battery life. I get 10+ minutes per flight. My wife likes that as does my pup. It does charge pretty quickly though. Totally worth the price for something that makes you forget about the day. Oh, the manual needs a little help with the English language. Not that I'm a wordsmith. So go ahead already and buy one. Go Angels, Lakers, & Kings!

Great/ Design,March 25, 2013
By Beanbagger
This is great beginners gyro. I have one issue, the tail rotor is not the greatest design. It should either be made out of aluminum or something stronger. I have repaired my self. But need to order like 10 just for future.

Great little Copter but...,March 8, 2013
By Mark
Great intermediate chopper! Really flies well. The only issues I had were:
1) The remote charging cord is really short. It is very difficult to plug into the chopper to charge from the remote. The USB charger works fine.
2) I ordered 2 of these Copters and one of the remote toggles was broken off. I managed to repair it but the packaging leaves a little to be desired. I would rather see a solid box vs. a cello front see through window that does little to protect the product inside.

New Mini RC,March 1, 2013
By George
This is my second helicopter, the first one was larger and would continually break. This one is smaller, easier to use and is sturdier. Really like the unit. A lot of fun to fly. Also, comes with extra parts ( which I haven't needed) but is a nice addition. Would highly recommend it.
