 fun stuff Nov 15, 2007

The Mosquito II is a fun toy to fly around the house. Once I got used to the sensitivity of the control I was able to fly it pretty much anywhere. The only down side is that the blades won't stop spinning when I let go of the throttle. They spin for an extra 5-10 seconds which isn't good when I crash it. It moves forward pretty quickly compared to other indoor helis I've flown. Backwards is pretty slow, but it still moves.
I also own a Mosquito I which is has a much more sensitive controller and a quicker response time, but is less stable, especially if a draft of wind catches it. It's not as noisy as the Mosquito II, and a few of the parts have broken (piece of the blade, stabilizer pins) from some crashes, but it still flies just as well.
The Mosquito II seems to be more durable and would still be my pick. The fiber-optics down the side of it are pretty cool too...

 Stable and easy to fly. Instant fun! Dec 28, 2007
By E. Weingardt
The Micro Mosquito 2 is a very stable and fun helo. Within 30 minutes, I was able to fly it without putting anything together. With no previous RC helicopter experience, I was hovering instantly. As with all helo's, it is a little difficult keeping the tail straight, but there's a trim button that will help stabilize the tail spin, if it is an issue.
Of course, every new person will crash it or have hard landings, but after a week of constantly flying it, it still has held together even though it has crashed into leg chairs and walls. It handles most minor collisions without breakage and has not marked up the walls or hurt anything I have run into.
CONS: It doesn't go backwards very fast and after about 15 minutes, you have to recharge, but all small helo's don't fly much longer.
PROS: Very cool looking, made of plastic, not styrofoam, quick charge, easy to fly, doesn't break as easy as some others
I would highly recommend this for anyone unless you are looking for an outside helo that can handle wind and longer RC distance. This is perfect for the beginner or a person that wants to fly helo's indoors.

 Great value for the money (with caveats) Mar 11, 2008
By P. A. Vinger

I have used this toy for a total of three charging cycles (about 30 min total). There is a definite learning curve - I spent most of the first two sessions skimming along the surface of the floor, trying to get the hang of making it go where I wanted. On the third session, I had it mostly in the air, but could only control it for short hops.
Positives: Much larger than other RC helis in the same price category. Unorthodox rotor design makes it truly flyable in theory, as it has three axes of input - up/down, right/left (yaw), and forward/back. LED lights look cool and help you keep track of where it is. Different colors fore and aft make it easy to tell which way it's pointed. Light intensity also gives you an idea of remaining battery power. Fairly durable - I bumped it into several walls, posts and pieces of furniture, and had many light crashes, including one down a flight of stairs, and it's still in one piece and working perfectly.
Negatives: It loses the ability to leave the ground about half-way through the battery charge - I can still skim around the floor, but it won't take off. I have not gotten the hang of getting it perfectly trimmed yet, and I'm not sure if this is possible, as the required trim seems to change with the battery state. This seems to raise the learning curve, as I'll have to learn to make constant, small inputs just to keep it flying straight and level. Directions are translated, barely - luckily it's very easy to use, but there are some small things left unexplained.
Overall, it is fun, and a great value for the money.
After having this toy for a longer time, I would change my review above to read as follows:
Most of the positives of this toy have to do with the fact that it is a helicopter you can fly in your house - in other words, I didn't find this particular RC helicopter to be exceptional in any way. I am impressed by its durability - I've crashed it into walls and down stairs, but the only thing that broke any of its parts was my trying to adjust it by hand (see negatives, below). It doesn't matter how durable it is if it doesn't really work, so I can't recommend the Mosquito unless it is for a small child who will be happy to have the thing skim along across the ground, and who can be trusted not to let it fly right into his own face.
The biggest, glaring negative about this product is that after under 10 charging cycles, it became incapable of getting more than an inch or so off the ground. I have tried adjusting the rotors, but the plastic they are made of, while durable, will not hold a different shape when flexed - it will crack first. Also, while practice does bring better control, I find this toy too skittish to be truly controllable. It is only possible to get it to go in a general direction - you can get it to fly towards one part of a room, but in doing so, you will be bouncing off the floor, walls, and furniture, not flying around them. The trim controls work well, but as the battery drains down, the amount of necessary trim changes, further complicating control.
Overall, it is fun to use for a while, but without real controllability and the ability to get far off the ground, it doesn't have lasting appeal.

Skip Pilot Training! Mar 09, 2008
By Alon Oscar Deutsch
"Computational Biophysicist"
This is a swell helicopter...it is very stable due to its twin rotors and it flies for nearly the time it takes to charge if you don't overcharge it. It will rise in the air at least 3 stories and move forward, backward, left, right, down, or just hover (just don't let it descend too quickly if you prefer not to snap off the propeller). In response to some hasty reviews of this product: remember that you must learn to control it well to make it fly to predestined locations - make sure that you set the rudder trim so that it hovers in one position and doesn't spin in the air. Also, since the helicopter is quite sensitive to directional changes, you may have to search for an off-center "sweet-spot" on the control pad to make it consistently move forward or backwards without turning (this requires some patience). Don't be disappointed right away - after a single day of practice, I was able to launch it from the floor of one room and land it over fifty feet away on top of a very tall bookshelf down the hall. I would keep it indoors because it is very susceptible to wind changes, ceiling fans, and even air conditioning. However, despite these drawbacks, I feel that it is still certainly a very worthy purchase.

 Mosquito Version 2 - Fun but Delicate Feb 09, 2008
By J. S. Townsend
The heli was fun and it is really cool when it is flying. The trim button is very sensitive and after I accidently pressed it, the heli just rotated almost uncontrolably. I contacted the seller and they replied promptly with a fix. Pressing the button 20 times is the fix.
