The Picco Z miniature helicopter is controlled by super wide infra red remote control, making these mini helicopters perfect for flying indoors in confined spaces. These miniature flying machines are only 170mm long and weigh an unbelievable 10g, they are amazingly stable and easy to fly. The PiccoZ Micro Helicopter is produced from extremely tough expanded Polypropylene foam, features a blue LED strobe light, and incorporates an auto stability system to make this easy to operate both indoors and outside in calm conditions. The PiccoZ is supplied completely ready-to-fly; all that is required is the fitting of 6 x AA alkaline batteries (purchase separately) and then charge the onboard Lithium Polymer flight battery using the lead on the transmitter. This lightweight battery can provide flights of 5-7 minutes per charge, and takes less than half an hour to recharge once flattened. The PiccoZ is available on three different channels to allow up to three models to be flown together.
