I've just gone through 2 Havoc's, on my third now in 2 weeks. The first 2
were purchased at a super wally-mart here in Phoenix, AZ. The first 2 were
so unstable out of the box that it was next to impossible to fly them with
any real control. The 3rd one, which I got tonight works great. So, that
means that there is possibly a bad run of these toys. You'll know if YOU
got one thats screwed up because it will rock back and forth no matter how
much "tweaking" you do. It simply will not settle down to a point where
you comfortable fly it where you want. I tried unsuccessfully to land on a
2 1/2 X 4 ft coffee table. The latest one: landed twice within a minute
or so. It responded SOOOooo much better. I have no idea what the problem
is/was. All I can tell you is be on the lookout.

Maybe it's you. After two tries, you finally have the skills to fly
the beast.
