PicooZ Skybot Challenge Attack Robots
If you’ve come across our PicooZ Sky Challenger pack, which absolutely flew out the door Christmas 2008, then you’ll know how much fun a battle in your living room can be. The Skybot Attack Challenge is based on the same principal, each Robot has a built in laser to shoot the other out the sky. Firstly, before you go all out on a laser shooting frenzy, you need to build up your flying skills which should be up to scratch after a few flights thanks to the incredible stability and maneuverability this flying toy has to offer. Each Skybot has a twin set of rotors on its shoulders and a third on its back to achieve this. Once you get the hang of flying the Skybots you can challenge family and friends to see who really is the king of the skies. As mentioned already this is set to be a Christmas 2009 best seller.
The PicooZ Atlas offers a 3 channel system to take your flying skills to the next level. With the 2 channel system a constant forward motion is built in to keep the chopper in the air, whereas with the 3 channel system you to control the helicopter so it flies forwards, backwards or even just hover in one spot as well as turn left/right and descend/ascend vertically. The PicooZ Atlas is based on an executive helicopter, so would suit someone who likes a bit of class!
Moving on from the original PicooZ Micro Helicopter, Silverlit have produced this little baby of a bubble helicopter and its one of the smallest in the world. As with all the new PicooZ helicopters it comes with an auto stability system making it just the thing for the beginner pilot, it’s easy to fly even in the most cramped of places. The PicooZ Atom’s robust body is finished to complete perfection and looks just like something you’d see in the skies.
The PicooZ Pluto is based on the Atom, it introduces a 3 channel system to provide increased maneuverability for that extra bit of flying fun. It also features an innovative balance adjuster system allowing you to vary the forward flying speed, perfect for when you want to pull off accurate maneuvers. The remarkably realistic PicooZ Pluto micro helicopter is in a class of its own, it’s super stable, easy to operate and will provide any enthusiastic RC pilot with hours of entertainment.
We’ve just added a bunch of Bladez products in our remote control helicopter section, as these flying toys are getting forever popular we just needed to expand the range for all you gadget lovers. The newly added Bladez range in our gadgets shop includes two indoor helicopters, a powerful outdoor helicopter and a mighty fast remote control speed boat. Here’s a quick review of each, you can read more and view videos by visiting the specific product pages by clicking the links below.
Bladez 3D Apache Indoor Helicopter
Modelled perfectly to the real version the BladeZ Apache Helicopter is a mean looking tank busting machine and will look rather menacing as it flies around in your lounge. With a fully controllable 3 proportional channel and an auto balance system you’ve got a highly manoeuvrable indoor helicopter with great precision. Aimed at the beginner/intermediate RC pilots getting used to the Bladez Apache should take no time at all. Comes complete ready to fly and is rechargeable thanks to the internal lithium battery.
The Micro Bladez 3D has the same 3 channel and auto-balance technology as the Apache Helicopter mentioned above, it just comes in a sleeker design, something you’d probably want to get out when your grandma’s around so you don’t scare the hell out of the poor lady. Again it is one for the beginner/intermediate RC pilots, it’s a doddle fly with great manoeuvrability. Perfect for building your skills up for our next contender…………
Offering more advanced controls, precision and a lot more power the Bladez 3D Outdoor Helicopter is one not to be messed with unless you have some experience on your back, this is one for the intermediate/advanced RC pilots. With its full 360° precision directional movement you’ll be able to pull off some immense manoeuvres and boy will you be astonished, you’ll want to recharge it again and again for some serious fun. The Bladez 3D Helicopter is extremely robust making it perfect for an outdoor flying machine.
A first for us here in the Deviltronics Gadget Shop, something for you to blast about on open water. This Remote Control Speed Boat is powered by a couple of 380 series air-cooled motors, what are they we here you say, don’t worry as we can tell you they make this beast extremely powerful and super duper fast. The Bladez Aqua can reach up to 25mph and can perform some amazingly sharp turns thanks to its high torsion dual propeller system. The speed boat comes fully assembled, just give it a charge and you’re ready to go. A full charge will allow around 30 minutes of play time within a 100m range.
The latest addition to our indoor helicopters line is the awesome Bladerunner Nano. Its flies just as brilliantly as its bigger brother, the Bladerunner 3, only it’s smaller, lighter and comes in at almost half the price!
The Bladerunner Nano is a 3 channel mini helicopter measuring a titchy 185mm in length and weighing a mere 17g. Being so small and light gives it extreme manoeuvrability which no doubt will provide no end of fun as you dodge the furniture and expensive ornaments around your home. The 3 channel proportional system allows you to fly in any direction and that’s forwards, backwards, left, right, up and down if you’re not sure of your bearings. You’ll even be able to hover, perfect for teasing the cat or dog (not goldfish), just hover the Bladerunner Nano in front of it and quickly whizz away while he/she tries to take a swipe with its paw.

The sun is shining and there isn’t a cloud in the clear blue sky, getting out the house for some amazing fun is top of the agenda. What better way to add a bit of excitement in the back garden with one of our indoor helicopters and get flying amongst the birds and bumble bees that are buzzing about all over the place. We guarantee some serious fun!
Indoor helicopters are not just for flying inside, oh no, when you get the opportunity with the calm weather outside you can take these little beasts outdoors for a real good flying lesson. With all that space in your back yard there is no chance in crashing into anything (just watch your clothes line) allowing you to master the manoeuvrability of your new toy and take those skills indoors for a rainy day.
With a choice of colours and channel frequencies you can fly up to three at the same time adding even more fun. The charging is done through the remote control or a separate recharger unit depending upon the indoor helicopter, these do not need to be connected to a mains plug so you can recharge outdoors right there and then. The typical flying time is approximately 10 minutes and a typical recharge time is 30 minutes.
So there you have it, some outdoor fun with an indoor gadget, just watch the heavy breeze though otherwise your mini helicopter will be seriously out of control. And don’t hang about too long thinking of which indoor helicopter to buy, before you know it summer will be over, we all know what typical British weather is like!
Let’s be honest. When you wake up on Christmas morning do you really want to see the soft outline of a new woolly jumper under the tree?
No.
Christmas morning is the one day of the year that men get to relive a little childhood excitement as they get their hands on the latest cool gadgets. It’s a time for assembling gizmos, charging batteries and firing up the best radio controlled gadgets on the market.
And this year the best RC gadgets are better than ever.
RC toys, radio controlled airplanes, micro RC helicopters and radio controlled shock tanks – they’ll all be favourites under the tree this year but one company has the edge when it comes to radio controlled toys – PicooZ.
PicooZ Radio Controlled Toys Rock
When we first got these things into the office we literally could not put them down. They are some of the best and most realistic RC flying toys that we’ve ever seen. It’s no wonder then that we made the PicooZ Tandem Z-1 RC Chinook micro RC helicopter our number one pick in our Top Ten Gifts For Menlist.
Need convincing? Then watch the video.
And if 23 grams of twin rotor fun doesn’t float your boat, check out the rest of the PicooZ range:
