PicoZ MX-1 Extreme

It fits inside the remote!

So small even Tom Thumb (or Cruise) would have trouble climbing aboard, the incredible PicoZ MX-1 Extreme is only slightly longer than a credit card. Do not adjust your computer, it really is that teensy. And although you can't use it to buy groceries or scrape ice off your windscreen, you can conduct thrilling flights in incredibly confined spaces.

I've got a chopper in my pocket!

The latest in Silverlit's ever-increasing line of RC micro choppers, the Extreme takes microchoppery to the nth degree. Why it's so small it even fits inside a built-in compartment in its transmitter/charging unit. This means you can carry the entire shebang in one hand. Amazing!

PicoZ MX-1 Extreme

Also available in Light Blue (Channel C) and Green (Channel B)


PicoZ MX-1 Extreme

Teeny tiny!


Despite its diminutive dimensions and a name that sounds like a hi-tech razor, the MX-1 Extreme will blow you away (not literally) with its impressive manoeuvrability. And because it's so compact, you can take it almost anywhere; we took ours to a board meeting the other day and the men in suits were so impressed they left the table in awe. Or maybe they just walked out. Whatever.

Let's compare sizes...

Slide off the transparent
cover

Just like its bigger PicoZ siblings, the twin-channel Extreme has a crash-resistant polypropylene foam body and features super-wide infra-red control, a built-in lithium polymer battery and adjustable trim control - all this yet it weighs just 7 grams. It really is squintingly small. As ever, the transmitter doubles up as a charger and a normal charge of 20-25 minutes should give flight times of up to 10 minutes.

Trimming - keeping your helicopter straight:

PicoZ MX-1 Extreme

If the helicopter is in a spiral clockwise...

or it keeps turning clockwise...

push the left side of the trim repeatedly until the turning stops


PicoZ MX-1 Extreme

The IR transmitter

Currently touted as the world's smallest remote control chopper, this marvel of micro technology will flatter even the crummiest of pilots thanks to an auto stability system that makes woka-woka-ing around in tiddly rooms a doddle. You'll be flying every waking hour. You could even dress up in a gorilla suit and attack yourself, King Kong style. (Yes, we know they were bi-planes but you get the idea). Someone's bound to do it, so it might as well be you.

Charge the PicoZ MX-1 Extreme via the IR transmitter

Press Reviews...

press review "PicoZ's given it an extra-hot wash and double doses of shrinking pills to squash it down to just 118mm long from nose to tail, yet it retains the full functionality of a fully-fledged flying machine."

visitor avatar I bought this because I've seen them at model shows and on the web and thought what the hey! I ordered one and within 3 working days it had arrived. It only took about 30 minutes initially, the minute you apply the throttle it was up and whizzing around the room. A very stable model easy to operate and a good price as well. Now I've got one of these I'm going to get the tandem version next. Thanks Firebox for a good buy, good service too, well worth the money....

visitor avatar Amazing little heli! I got this a few weeks ago and it is hard to master flying it, but fantastic fun. The actual heli is made of super-strong polystyrene and is virtually indestructible! Another great feature is that it actually can be stored inside the transmitter, which means it easily fits in a pocket! Amazing! You can also fly up to 3 different copters at one time, meaning you can even share the fun with your mates! However, there is one minor downside in that you need to use the trim to adjust the yaw every flight, using precious battery life, but this should not stop you buying this fantastic little gadget!

visitor avatar I got into work this morning to see a big box on my desk, only with a little surprise inside! I've not used the other micro helicopters before but this one is tiny, and amazing! Just waiting for it to charge again before I do a raid on the programming team.
