Despite how the cost of things makes it easier to buy what you really want one of the dilemmas today is that there is so much choice, even these days when the credit crunch is making everyone more cost conscious.

You see when you have 10 items to choose from, all as good as each other, it’s at least 10 times as hard to pick one. Factor in price and that’s an added layer of complication.

For anyone who wants a remote control helicopter there’s a very wide choice these days. Actually, prices start under 20 pounds if you just want something that’s a bit of fun to play with and easy to fly.

Probably the best choice and value right now is provided by the Picooz range. Silverlit seem to know how to make fun, cheap radio control helicopters and their range is very wide and constantly growing.

What’s more important than just a good range and a low price is that they are such amazing fun to play with. Give one to a boy – or a man – and watch how they pretend to be ace pilots! They’re a surefire way to get some peace and quiet for hours because they’ll be so absorbed in ‘flying’ the helicopter.

Since they’re very lightweight they don’t have the heavy crash landings that you gt with real’ radio control helicopters. That means they don’t normally sustain damage the way the big toys do. In other words once you’ve bought one, it should last you a long, long time. Important in today’s economic climate.

So if you’re looking for a fun gift for someone who’s hard to please, don’t overlook the humble radio control helicopter

You’ll find that the value for money, ease of use and sheer fun is hard to beat. Couple that with a wow factor when you see one actually flying – and knowning that you control it – and you can see why so many people buy this miniature marvels of modern toy-making.
