New Picoo Z R/C Helicopters

New Picoo Z  R/C Helicopters

Picoo Z, the brand known for its tiny radio controlled indoor helicopters, has now updated their line of choppers with three new models.

Picoo Z Mini Micron

Picoo Z Mini Micron (£30, about $59 USD)

Small just got a whole lot smaller with the PicooZ Mini Micron. No bigger than the length of a credit card the tiny remote control helicopter is even small enough to fit into a compartment under the remote!

It has super wide infrared control, a built-in Li-Poly battery, trim control and durable body. It is two channel helicopter which means you control the height with the left stick and direction with the right. Its design means that it is always flying forward. Also Known as the PicooZ MX-1 extreme, the miniature helicopter is easy to fly so is great for beginners and its size means it is suitable for small rooms.

A normal charge of 20-25 minutes should give you a flight time of around 10 minutes, and this is done directly from the remote control (requires 4xAA batteries).

 

Picoo Z Tandem Z

Picoo Z Tandem Z (£30, about $79 USD)

The helicopter has super wide infrared control, a built-in Li-Poly battery, trim control and durable body. It has sophisticated gyroscopic effect for stability and twin rotor blades that work in Tandem. It also has a unique roto-blade system for steady take off and it’s a 3 channel helicopter (forwards, backwards, left, right, up and down).

A normal charge of 20-25 minutes should give you a flight time of around 10 minutes, and this is done directly from the remote control (requires 6xAA batteries).

 

Picoo Z 3 Channel Helicopter

Picoo Z 3 Channel Helicopter (£30, about $59 USD)

The latest range from Silverlit is now with us and the range just keeps getting better and better. The 3 channel PicooZ, which is also known as the Uranus, Atlas and Tri-cooZ, gives you more control than its 2 channel predecessor. Where as before you could move up, down left and right, you also now control forward and backwards. This extra dimension gives the ability to hover which has been a frequent question from customers in our stores.

This helicopter still has super wide infrared control, a built-in Li-Poly battery, trim control and durable body (in fact it’s actually improved). It now has sophisticated gyroscopic effect for stability and an LED light to guide the way in low lighting conditions.

A normal charge of 20-25 minutes should give you a flight time of around 10 minutes, and this is done directly from the remote control (requires 6xAA batteries). The 3 channel PicooZ is available in 3 styles all on different frequencies.
