RC Micro Metal Gyro Copter

ThinkGeek is currently selling the RC Micro Metal Gyro Copter with a 38% discount.

The RC helicopter is different to most others in that it has a light alloy body. Inside you’ll also find some fancy tech that helps make it easier to fly such as an accelerometer that can measure which way the copter is flying and provides instructions to the innards to compensate for problems.

The remote control has 3 channels and the helicopter also uses a gyro to also detect motion.
