Performance
A good remote control helicopter should fly for as long as possible and as easily as possible, even if there's a decent breeze in the varea. It should also have an easily accessible battery, so you can switch out cells in the field without special tools, and those batteries should charge as quickly as possible, so you can get back to flying.
The V262 Cyclone checks most of those boxes. Its controls are easy to learn. It sports a flight time of eight and a half minutes, which is long enough to tire you out as a pilot, especially if you're fighting a bit of wind. It can handle that wind, though, being big and powerful enough to remain upright and stable. Should you not be satisfied with eight and half minutes of flight, its battery is easily swapped out for a replacement, bought online for a few dollars.
The Cyclone would be close to a perfect beginner helicopter were it not for its long charge times. That 850mAh battery took about 95 minutes to top up during our charge tests, and an hour and a half is a long time to wait when you can get RC helicopters that charge in half the time. We're nitpicking, though; for a quadcopter this big and stable, we were actually happy to let it charge up. The experience was worth the wait.
