Flight of the PicooZ
Posted by: Mike Moon in Uncategorized, tags: helicopter, picooz, present
I received a miniature remote controlled helicopter for Christmas.
I’m in charge of Command Central, operating our main video station plus helicopter control. Lindsay will be operating Mobile Station 1.

Silverlit PicooZs/AirHogs Havocs/??? SuperBees (all authentic ones made under license of Silverlit) are pretty cool. I just got one as distributed by AirHogs, and they fly remarkably well for what they are. In my case, having a drafty and small house makes the flying more challenging than in your video.
I’ve noticed that they are available on 3 separate channels. I’m suprised nobody has recorded multi-helo flights yet. I could see some fun games like obstacle racing (making a course around/over/under set waypoints), jousting, and perhaps rotor-wash soccer with something light such as a ping pong or cotton ball.
These would be even better if they started selling the helicopters w/o the controller. (Save $10-$15 or whatever the Tx costs.) Either that or make replacement/mod parts available in stores.
