The Syma s108 is both an indoor and an outdoor remote control helicopter which means it offers you a very stable flight, particularly indoors and is very strong and able to withstand a bit of wind outside. It is powered by two motors and a third one which is built into the tail so it can lift off the ground and hover with relative ease. Here at ToyToYou.com we can offer you this helicopter at a very special price of £13.31 plus postage and packing. It is very lightweight even though it’s pretty tough and doesn’t fall apart after the first few crashes. The Flashing LED light helps the helicopter to look even more realistic and authentic than other models and even though it is designed for outdoor use as well as indoor, it is great for beginners due to it being pretty easy to control. You can fly the s108 for up to about 8 minutes in total and that’s after about 30 minutes of charging from USB charger, and it can fly up to 10 meters away from you, which is a pretty good distance. The auto stable rotor blade system makes it very easy to lift off the ground and begin your flight that will let you move your helicopter in all kinds of directions.
