Pedals, joysticks, flight manuals, leather bomber jacket...it's a rigamarole flying a chopper, isn't it? Well no, not if you buy the amazing PicoZ Micro Helicopter.

Ready-to-fly straight out the box, this palm-sized IR flying machine is perfect for indoor flights. And it won't blow off the boss's toupee or decapitate the dog, even in a head-on collision, since it's just over six and a half inches long and weighs only a third of an ounce! More importantly it won't fall to pieces, as it's constructed from robust polypropylene foam.

You control the airborne action via a twin channel, wide-beam infrared transmitter that doubles as a charger. With a range of up to 30 feet, you'll soon be conducting hush-hush raids on distant enemy desks and, thanks to the Pico's eerie blue strobe light, giving the late shift the creeps. Just make sure you don't hum the music to Airwolf while doing so - it's a dead giveaway!



Unlike the huge gas-guzzling choppers of yesteryear, the Pico's powerful micro motors are powered by a lightweight lithium polymer battery, giving flight times of up to 10 minutes from a half hour charge. More than enough to rile roommates and pester the parrot. Indeed, when it comes to maneuverability, this nifty chopper is the canine's cojones. And that's thanks to an ingenious auto-stability system which makes flying the Pico a piece of cake.



We guarantee you'll be utterly addicted to this triumph of micro technology before you can say 'Jan Michael Vincent' (whippersnappers get Googling), and the whole indoor flight angle adds a thrilling new dimension to the proceedings. Open spaces? Who needs 'em!
