AppCopter IPhone RC Helicopter

Launch a gyro helicopter into the air using your iPhone.

Seeing as we are getting to the point where our entire lives can be controlled from the iPhone, it comes as no surprise that you can now convert your iPhone (or iPod Touch for that matter) into a remote control handset and fly a helicopter with it. Not just any helicopter however, the appCopter is a fully gyro stabilised (i.e. its flight is so stable you could keep a horse in it) 3 channel helicopter. You simply download the app, plug the transmitter bug into the headphone socket of your iPhone or iPod Touch, and your good to go.

The app throws up a cool looking control deck for flying your helicopter - you can fly it using traditional controls, or by using the motion control of your iDevice, just tilt to steer and fly! Aside from the obvious fun of being able to control a cool looking helicopter from your iPhone, we particularly love the fact that it plays helicopter engine and rotor sound effects, perhaps we’re a little sad, but it sounds great.

Fly a helicopter like you’ve never flown one before, (and as it’s so easy, even if you haven’t actually flown one before) with the appCopter, the ultimate toy for the iGeneration.
