Voted "TOP GADGET" In The Sunday Times - 23 October 2011!

"GREAT FUN" Daily Star - 27 October 2011!

Featured on the Gadget Show Christmas Special - 5 December 2011 "This is the way forward, controlling your RC with your phone!" said Suzy Perry.

This amazing iHelicopter has just been launched in the UK and we've got a red hot introductory offer price of £34.99 (RRP £69.99). Hurry as this special price wont last long!

We get a large number of cutting edge gadgets and toys sent to us for testing, and it is quite rare for a product to stand out as much as this amazing new iHelicopter. It's a great product on so many levels all the way from the quality feel of the packaging, down the the awesome way you can control it from your Phone. I say Phone and not just iPhone because unlike other i-Helicopters on the market, this model also supports several Android phones as well.

"This cool Lightspeed iHelicopter that you control with your iDevice (and Android!) would make a great gadget gift!" The Gadget Show Christmas Special (5/12/2011)

"When the Lightspeed Helicopter arrived it was probably the single greatest threat to productivity in our office in all of 2011" PC Advisor magazine (12/12/2011)

So, you just download the free App (Copter Controller) from the apple App store or Android market, plug in the included IR transmitter and away you go. You'll instantly be top dog, and gain a huge amount of credibility as you pilot it around the office!

As the App is free, why not download it now (Copter Controller) to check out the cool user interface.

You can control it from your iPhone / iPad / iPod Touch and supported Android phones including: HTC - Desire S, HTC - Incredible S, Samsung - 9100, Samsung - i9000, Moto - MB525, LG - P350, HTC - Hero, HTC - Sensation.

The helicopter can be controlled Up/Down, Left/Right, Forward/Back, and thanks to the inbuilt Gyro this is pretty easy to do.

So, what sets this phone controlled helicopter apart from the competition:

1. Compared to traditional remote controls, its just so much more satisfying control a helicopter from you phone, and you'll be the envy of all onlookers.
2. It has iDevice and Android Support compared to other iHelicopters.
3. The App itself will be updated often with new features meaning that you get the "new product" feeling again without any additional expenditure. E.g. a Flight Recording mode will be added soon, enabling you to record a flight and then the helicopter will perform the same moves again at the press of a button.
4. Compared to traditional controllers, you don't need to buy batteries for the controller which represents a lot of money saved over the lifetime of the product.
5. The TURBO button for extra forward speed is a real bonus.
6. The throttle stick can be placed into position and then you can let go of it and it will maintain the same height. This made it easier to control than with a normal controller where you need to keep the throttle in place.
7. Motion control is awesome fun - i.e. you can tilt the phone to make it move forwards/backwards and left/right.
8. The helicopter has cool LED lights on its canopy, and you can also turn these off to increase flight times if you like (just flip the switch on the App UI).
9. Unlike many helicopters coming out of China, the instructions are very well written and easy to understand.
10. We've been selling helicopters for over 10 years and this is without a doubt the most durable mini helicopter we've ever flow. The initial sample we had is still fully intact without the included spares even needing to be used and we've had some massive wipe outs over the last few weeks.


Surely this is why offices were invented. To create a large open are to pilot around this amazing iHelicopter with your iPhone, iPad, iPod or supported Android Smartphone!

A brilliant bit of fun. Fantastic value for money. A great gift for boys who love fun gadgets, and geeks who love their apps! - Digitpedia (12/2011)

Overall, the slogan on its box sums up this phone controlled helicopter perfectly: Just download the App and let the fun begin!
