Mine was IDENTICAL to what's on page one here:
S2009
But was sold as a Jin Fei Hu S2009.
my impressions and review are here.

Angular, chopped-looking side-plates- this is no S107.
I consider it one of the WORST copters I've purchased.
I wanted to include it in my comparison thread here:
the three top copters, compared visually.
But considered it not worthy of comparison, and omitted it.

The USB charger puffed the stock pack on the third charge. After replacement, the drive motors would stutter, but not run. Something in the PCB was damaged, for sure.



Note factory cold solder joints, solder tags.

I honestly hope what's shipping is levels above what I got.
The vendor: rc-fever.com, ignored my email.

I am flat-out shocked to see this is a Syma.

It's definitely not Syma. The Symahelicopter.com site is just a blog for RC-Fever.com.

This is Syma's website, http://www.symatoys.com and if you would like to see what products they have it's:

http://symatoys.en.alibaba.com/

Their newest products worth mentioning are the S300 (airwolf), S032, S031, S006 (with Gyro),

Btw Killbucket, email me if you want a catalog or want to see a video of all their products; Their S107 is by far their best and most popular product.

That's a relief. I was worried the great stuff was already going away!
"by far", is an understatement.

AH-64 with gyro- this was made for me, and I've been waiting for it!

You know that there is this one: http://www.hobby-estore.com/SYMA-S02...h-symas023.htm

Along with the gyro AH-64, I like this one:

And this one:

A gyro stabilized Hughes OH-6 would be nice. The one I have (Syma S106) is absolutely beautiful but was impossible to fly out of the box because of overwhelming left turning tendencies. I had to fit a home made rudder to tame it, now it flies fine but is difficult to land with any measure of accuracy. Still is one of the most beautiful Syma choppers as far as looks go but I wish my S106 handled like my S107...

You know, this was Good Friday and at least over here it's not only a holyday, it's even forbidden to held public parties...

In these cases I am glad to only order on ebay because the sellers are usually much more "responsive" and they do everything to solve an issue and get their 5-star rating.

Damnit. My tail motor fell apart, and when I put it back together, it runs constantly. and doesn't respond properly to input.

Is there such a thing as replacement tail motors?
