How to Use an Air Hog Gyrocopter

The Air Hog Gyrocopter is half helicopter and half airplane, making this unit simpler to control than a typical radio-controlled helicopter. The rotors are not powered like a helicopter; they spin due to the Gyrocopter's interaction with the air as it moves. Its lithium battery provides longer playtime and the foam construction protects it from collision-related damage.
