Amazon.com Product Description
If you enjoy the fun of radio-controlled vehicles, but don't always want to leave the comfort of your couch to go outside and play, check out these Air Hogs Havoc Helicopters. Measuring a mere six inches long and weighing only a half pound, these small but mighty choppers are made for indoor dueling -- so you don't have to quit flying just because of bad weather or a dark sky. A crash-resistant foam fuselage means you can perfect your piloting skills using the dual-toggle, single-throttle wireless controller. The twin drive props in back and dual rotors on top provide exceptional stability and precise six-way directional control -- up, down, left, right, forward, and back. Sled-style landing gear means set-downs should be gentle, too.  | | The tiny flier fits easily in the palm of your hand. | Not just for meant flying solo, the Havoc copters are designed for fun with others. In what is almost like a live video game, each helicopter uses its infrared beam weapons to engage in a mid-air battle against the other. The first pilot to hit his opponent three times with the beam (complete with battle sounds) will be victorious as the enemy heads into a wild tailspin. Six AA batteries are required, but not included, for the remote controls. The helicopters are powered by rechargeable lithium batteries, and the charger comes with the set.
Product Description
Havoc Heli is the world's smallest, most advanced radio-controlled helicopter capable of incredible maneuverability. Laser Battle Helis are armed with infrared beam weapons, so you can duel in a kind of exciting real-world 3D "video game" complete with authentic battle sounds and action! Laser Battle comes complete with two Havoc Helis (each with distinctive markings) and two wireless controllers/chargers (with radio channel selector). You have two-toggle, four-way directional control of dual-rotary blades and a tail rotor fly up, down, left, right, forward, back or hover with amazing precision. You'll need it to survive! Havoc Helis are rated "Easy To Fly," which means with a little practice, anyone can pilot these like a pro.

 Really fun, good build quality November 8, 2007

I'm a HUGE fan of the Air Hogs line - most of their planes and helicopters are really fun. These little units are similar in size and shape to the other Air Hogs helicopter - the Havoc, but it's not the same. The body shape is slightly different, and it uses a more dense type of foam, and the rear rotor seems to have been improved a bit.
The fighting is pretty good, but sometimes it's difficult to actually aim the buggers - that could be my own lack of skill talking, but it's something to consider. It's also quite okay from the remote's perspective to just hold down the trigger and fire IR everywhere, and since it bounces off walls somewhat, in a small room this could make the game less enjoyable/challenging.
Keep in mind that you really don't need two people to play unlike other games - if two people are around, great, if not, the havocs are a ton of fun to fly by themselves.
Like the original havoc, these guys need a little weight (the included panels or some tape with a small weight do the trick) to fly forward, otherwise they hover and float on air currents.
These things rock! August 16, 2007

I got these today and they are so much fun! I had one of the origin havoc heli and have been waiting until these were released. They fly as good if not better then the original havoc's.
The controllers have buttons that allow you to shoot at the other heli and make a machine guns sound. When a heli gets "hit" then it beings to spin out on control and falls from the air.
This is really a great set for anyone that likes these types of toys.

First, a recommendation. Buy a few of the non dogfight variety also. Very useful for training and testing modifications. Oh yeah - mods. There are mods. Sadly, I can't paste URLs in an amazon review. hint: piccoztoolbox
Also, you can fight with the regular helis by getting over top your opponent and using your rotor down wash.
As for these little dog fighters ... Very cool. Reflected IR beams can be a problem, but in reality they can add an aspect of strategy to the fight. If the other guy gets next to a wall or into a corner, they deserve to catch a reflection. The center of the room, if the room is large enough, is the best place for avoiding reflections.
By the way, additional forward speed seems to help most folks control the heli, but doesn't help in a dogfight.
Best Toy Ever!!! December 6, 2007

I just can't understand all the naysayers about this toy. After a little practice my friends and I are having awesome dogfights. They are actually quite controllable once you get the hang of it. Smooth flying can achieve 10 minute flights. My 1st set of helis have hundreds of flights and probably thousands of crashes on them and they are still flying!
It is simply astounding that you can get this level of technology in a cheap indestructable toy.
One last tip: You need to fly in VERY calm areas. That means closing all doors/windows and turning off any heaters or A/C. Trust me, it makes a HUGE difference.
Lots of Fun July 4, 2008

Not the easiest thing to fly and they do kind of have a mind of their own but a ton of fun. You definitely need a large room (preferably with high ceilings) to get the best out of them. Great toy for both little and big kids.
