Radio controlled gadgets are cool, especially ones that can take to the
skies! Japanese
toy giant Tomy says it's about to roll out the next generation in tiny copters,
and it's calling this one the Heli-Q. The company says this is the world's
smallest radio controlled toy helicopter, but other than its smaller size, its
specs seem similar to those of Picco-Z Styrofoam helicopters we've flown before.
The Picco-Z took a 20-minute charge of its battery to give us an eight-minute
flight, but Tomy conservatively says this Heli-Q will fly for five minutes on
each charge.
There's no indication of price from Tomy at this point, but the
toymaker is promising that the Heli-Q RC helicopter will hit (Japanese) store
shelves sometime next month.
