Will any of the smaller ones work outside? Bit more than I would spend right now.....

Where I live right now isn't too big, but my folks would be good for flying one of little flying around.

Well it took me <1 day to break the first one (unlucky crash as my mate has used his daily for a month and it is still going!!) ...

Anyhoo, it was so much fun I bought another one anyway ... only this time I went for and even cuter one ...

one that looks like this ... (only mine is called a Dragonfly, not a Fairy!! !! )



Not only does it look more like a real helo, it flys really really well ...

It was worth the long wait from china!!
