The instructions that come with this helicopter are a little lacking, but this is not a complex toy. Helpful hints missing from the instructions:
* Leave the unit level when you turn it on for a few seconds. There will be a very small blinking green light visible from the back of the unit that will stop flashing after a few moments. This is the gyro level-setting.
* To change channels of the helicopter (A vs B), make sure both the helicopter and remote are powered off. Set the channel you wish to use on the remote and power the remote on first with the throttle lever at idle. Power on the helicopter and move the throttle to the "open" position. After a brief moment, the helicopter will change channels and is available for use.
DURABILITY
These are durable but not indestructible. Take care when flying in a room with a lot of obstacles. Even slight changes in airflow in a room will change the flight dynamics of these small, lightweight helicopters. Due to their small size and relatively low powered motors, attaching anything to the helicopter could very easily prevent it from flying and at the very least will make it more difficult to control.
BATTERY
The helicopters can be charged from the included USB cable or from the included power-port on the remote. I would advise charging with the USB cable because charging from the remote will quickly drain the remote's batteries.
Regarding the USB charger, there is a little light in the USB side of the cable provided that will light up when charging is finished. The LED is not externally visible on the charger cable.
The way you fly your helicopter will influence how long the battery lasts, but we are averaging roughly 5 to 7 minutes. Charging takes roughly 45 minutes for my helicopters.
To maximize the life of the rechargeable battery, allow your helicopter to "rest" for 5 to 10 minutes after a flight before plugging it in for a charge.
Take care when plugging the cable into the helicopter to charge as the pins are very very small and I could see where it could be easy to damage them if you're too rough with it. On the charging cable (both on the remote and the USB cable) there is a small arrow/triangle on the top of the plug. Plug into the helicopter with this arrow/triangle facing up.
FLIGHT AND CONTROL
These helicopters quite stable and easy to fly. It does take a little finesse to learn just how much throttle you should give these, but the learning curve is minimal and you'll have it figured out during your first flight.
As you fly (and crash... because yes, you will crash these repeatedly) you should expect little tiny nicks in the plastic blades and plastic body pieces. These will impact flight characteristics over time but very minimally. You can pick up a set of replacement pieces for very little money here on Amazon. I think the last time I looked it was maybe $3 or less.
IF YOU HAVE PETS WITH LONG HAIR -- keep an eye on the rotor shaft and pull any tangled animal hairs or fibers out from around the shaft regularly.
With very little maintenance and care, I see no reason why these shouldn't last for quite a long time. The availability of very inexpensive replacement parts here on Amazon means you should be able to enjoy a great many flights with these units.
The Syma S107G is a great indoor rc helicopter. I personally did not expect much given the heli's $15 price tag yet I'm blown away by the amount of small moving parts and surprisingly decent quality it has. While I can't say that a mini RC helicopter has many practical uses in everyday life, it sure is a great little gadget/toy to have around the office or your room if you are looking to kill a few minutes everyday piloting your heli through various obstacles such as furniture, family members, or coworkers.
Aesthetics
The Syma S107G is a rather slick little rc heli. The helicopter is built on an aluminum frame and is shelled with colored plastic parts. The interior appears to be composed of white plastic gears that move when the heli is in operation. The rotors are made of a durable feeling plastic attached to an aluminum rotating shaft. Although the rotors feel of decent quality, they are quite thin so I'd recommend purchasing extra just in case. The rotors on my heli have not broken yet even though I have crashed it several times but only time will tell how it will hold up. The receiver looks rather cheaply made plastic upon first glance but upon getting a firm grasp on it, it is actually pretty solid and has some weight to it. The heli is around 7 inches in length, the rotors from one side to the other when fully extended are around 7 inches as well, and the height is about 3.5 inches. The controller is roughly 4.5 inches by 6 inches with a depth of 1.75 inches.
Charging
It takes anywhere from 30 min to an hour to completely charge depending on how dead the battery is in the heli. Flight time is probably anywhere from around 10-15 minutes Charging is done via a charging cable that comes out of a bottom left slot of the controller. The controller requires 6 AA batteries that are not included.
Handling and Usability
The Syma S107G Heli is a 3 channel RC which means it can move up, or down; yaw forward, backward, right, or left; or rotate in a circular motion left or right. The S107G handles great indoors but any gust of wind even from a ceiling fan will potentially make it unstable and hard to control. I can not recommend using it outdoors nor can I imagine you would be able to keep it airborne longer for then a few seconds due to how light it is in an outdoor setting. As long is there is not any interference from wind, the S107G handles great indoors although does require some attention and focus to use so I couldn't imagine letting a kid under 10 using it without breaking it. One thing I did notice that is a slight annoyance is the heli does yaw backwards slightly if you hover. This could probably be easily fixed by putting some sort of weight in the nose of the heli. If the heli rotates in one direction, this can easily be corrected with a dial on the controller which you would turn in the direction opposite that your heli is currently turning in on its own. The controller also allows the left stick to be set at a set position in order to easily hover. The controller also has an a and b frequency which I assume means that one other heli of the same model could be flown on the opposite frequency simultaneously.
Durability
I have probably probably flown this heli around 15 times total and crashed it about 3 or 4 times. It still looks basically as new as the day I took it out of the box and still flies just as well but I imagine that rotors would be prone to breaking after numerous small crashes or even a single big crash.
Final Verdict
At $15 the Syma S107G 3 Channel RC Helicopter is a steal. I would spend up to $30 on something like this and consider it still a great deal. Although there a few quirks to the S107G (particularly how it yaws backwards slightly when hovering), I give the 4.5 / 5 stars for how well it handles, how durable it is, and its general ease of use. Check out the attached photos for more information regarding size and charging!

Battery life is short - flight time is 8-10 minutes between charges.
Flight controls have a shallow learning curve. Copter is pretty agile and very well built. I have since bought another, to fly together with my son.
Highly recommend.
