The MESArcFF crew gives it a two thumbs up!  Easy to work with and to fly for all level types. It has a great overal look to it, and as far as durability it has passed with flying colors.  It has a durable chassis that allows for some pounding into walls and the ground.
 

 

Getting to the board and battery for repair or replacement is easy, just simply remove the canopy. Do be careful though of the light fixture up front, you can rip it off the wire connections.

 

 

The only bummer is that you need a converter in order to use the charger with US connections.

We would like to thank Adam from Gearbest for allowing us to review one of their products, it was a lot of fun and it is perfect addition to our squadron of Helis for students to continue their learning about rotorcraft flight and design.

Thank you,

A rather shallow review for a helicopter. How about providing an idea of its size class by referencing the length of the blades. No mention of whether this was a fixed pitch or collective pitch heli, although it looks to have a 45 degree flybar which would indicate FP.

It's a WLToys V912 clone. Even the name is unchanged.
