Customer Reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Spare replacement helicoptor rotors Comment: I bought replacement main & tail rotors for my Air Hog R/C helicoptor I have. I've not yet had to replace them, so can't really rate their performance, but they look fine. Customer Rating: Summary: Broken on arrival Comment: Rotor was broken upon arrival. Too inexpensive to return. No worth my time to package up and send back. Customer Rating: Summary: Works Comment: Blade wasn't exactly as pictured but it worked. Top blade is just counterweigts. A little heavier than original so it bogs down just a bit now. Customer Rating: Summary: Great replacement rotor! Comment: I have been very pleased with this replacement rotor for my mini-helicopter (I think it's a Havoc but the box doesn't say)! I received and installed the new rotor and my heli flies just as well as it did before and the new rotor does seem to take much more abuse without falling apart like the original one did.
Contrary to some opinions, I found that the new rotor is easy to replace using two medium length needle nose pliers.
1. WITHOUT HOLDING THE BODY OF THE HELICOPTER, grip the metal shaft that is visible between the body and black plastic of the currently installed rotor with one pair of pliers
NOTE: If you try and hold just the foam body of the helicopter you risk damaging the gears, body, and rotor shaft.
2. WITHOUT TOUCHING THE HELICOPTER BODY and while continuing to grip the metal rotor shaft (grip tightly, if the pliers slip they can damage the body), use the other pair of pliers to grip the plastic shaft attached to the rotor blades and gently slide up and off the metal shaft.
3. While continuing to grip the metal rotor shaft with the first pair of pliers, insert the metal shaft into the plastic hole of the new rotor.
4. Carefully but firmly press the new rotor into place taking care not to bend or stress the metal shaft.
Voila, you should be ready to rock and roll! The complete replacement process took me about 45 seconds. Customer Rating: Summary: good and cheap Comment: I bought this after crashing my Air Hogs Havoc Heli into a wooden block, which broke its main rotor and also managed to knock something loose in/near the internal motor (side note: avoid air hogs products for this reason...go with a syma fairy or picco z). Anyway, the replacement rotor fit great...all I had to do was pry off the original one (no eaasy task, by the way) and this one fit snugly.
