I started out with a cheap all plastic Syma S5 as my first one. I crashed that over 100 times learning how to fly and never hurt it...go figure. My next upgrade was a Kawasaki green Syma S107G. It was quite a bit better built for a few bucks more. Although I have progressed I will never outgrow this one and continue to fly it no matter what else comes along. For $22.98 you can't beat this one. My next upgrade was a Syma S107H-E which is a upgraded S107G. Guess which one I am pretty sure I am getting next, thus what brought me here. The Blade 70S looks to be the best one of them all...however I wouldn't start with it. At $59.99 you don't want to crash and wreck it just starting out even though they claim it is for beginners. My advice is start with the Syma S107G first. You can then skip the cheap Syma S5 and the more expensive $49.99 S107H-E going right to the Blade 70S. You are free to do as you wish, but trust me when first starting out you are going to crash a lot. The Syma S5 and S107G take that abuse very well. I'm sure the Blade 70S will be slightly more fragile due to it's more complex design and controls. It still looks to be rugged and sturdy enough though given you have a little practice flying these mini R/C helicopters. Remember you can buy and wreck three Syma S107Gs for what this one Blade 70S sells for. The Syma S5 sells for less than $15 usually so you could buy and wreck four of those. Save the Blade 70S until you get your feet wet and better.
So my 4TH Of July present to myself was a Blade 70S and a Eachine E119 that I ordered today to go with all the rest^^^. We'll see how these ones do as well. I kinda accidentally got into collecting these micro helicopters too. I know the Blade 70S and Eachine E119 can be flown outside. For inside I still like the Syma S107G as it is more suited for it. These new ones can be flown inside but you can't begin to tap into the power and maneuverability they have. My final one might be a Syma Nano S3 but that takes quite a bit more skill to fly and I am not ready yet. It's also $139.99 so if you tear it up you have more to lose.
The ones that is on the right of the throttle is throttle trim, the one that is under the throttle is the yall trim ex. your helicopter is spinning to the left you give it right yall trim. The two that are next to the right stick forward, backward, and side to side trim ex. your helicopter is drifting backward and to the right you would give it forward trim and left trim (forward and backward trim are the vetical ones on the left stick)

Very tough little heli
Hi heliparkflyer, I realise this is a complete beginner question but what are those 4 trim switches and what do they do? Cheers

Much better offerings are out there , a year later & too expensive for the recent competitors is now facing.
The Eachine E119 is a bit better but it is $10 - $20 more depending on where and when you bought it.
