PicooZ Insecta Helicopter

PicooZ Insecta Helicopter

Get ready for the latest from the Silverlit PicooZ series, a micro RC helicopter with a twist, let us introduce you to the Insecta. An extraordinary breed of chopper we would say, crossed between your usual flying toy with rotors and a big bug eyed evil looking fly. Something funnies been going on somewhere and we wouldn’t like to say what!

With humungous eyes that pulsate away like something you’d see in a sci-fi horror movie, this little beast is sure to gather attention in your neighbourhood. Fly it around in the dark and you’re certain to make someone hide under the duvet, now this could get quite interesting, it could indeed if you had more than one, how about flying three together? You can do just that with the PicoZ Insetca micro RC helicopter, thanks to each colour (that’s yellow, blue and green) working on a different radio controlled frequency. Collect all three and annoy the nation, just make sure that grumpy old man next door doesn’t try to whack one with his fly swatter!

The PicooZ Insecta weighs in at a mere 10 grams and has a miniature length of 17cm, making the flying a doddle, which you’ll notice after a few flights. The body is constructed from robust polypropylene foam, therefore the Insecta is incredibly durable (handy for novices!). To compensate for any emergency crash landings a spare tail rotor blade is supplied just in case.

The remote control transmitter allows you to manoeuvre the Insecta forwards, left, right and (of course) up and down. The transmitter also doubles up as a charger, so no need for anything to be plugged into the mains. A good 30 minutes charge will provide you with 10 minutes of frantic flying time.

The PicooZ Insecta micro RC helicopter is to take the world by storm (or should it be swarm!) in 2008, just like the original’s did in 2007. Almost technically identical to the best selling PicooZ but with an updated auto stability system the Insecta is an affordable yet fun flying machine that’ll provide some serious entertainment for both young and old.

A bit of friendly advise, get one now and become a trend setting innovator for 2008, before everyone around you buys one first and asks you ‘where yours?’.
