All these reviews indicate that they are used indoors. Can anyone tell me if they can be used outdoors? If not, why? Thanks!

They work great outdoors, in low wind. Once it picks up, you're better off packing it in. this is the same with all rc choppers, however.

They are too light weight for outdoors because the wind will blow then away. Also since the controller is infra red (like your TV remote) sunlight can interfere with control.

I've never flown one outside but I don't see why u couldn't , I do know if u try there can be no wind at all. The slightest wind effects them a lot . I've flown them around box fans and ceiling fans and they don't do good at all. If u want to fly outside I recomend a bigger heavier model like a syma so33g or one similar. I have a syma so33g and it's made to fly outside, even then the wind will effect it. You can fly it in a slight wind but once you get up to a 7,8,9 mph wind their to hard to control. Hope I could help

I think they could be used inside but the product itself is junk. After owning them for a while several stopped working because rain water got inside them. I took apart several and the inside components are very cheep and look like they have been assembled by a company that has no concern for quality. I would not purchase them for long term use.

We have not used them outside. Only at the roller rink. They are very good quality so I think you could use them on the sidewalk/driveway.

I use it indoors. I know they make specific ones for outdoors that can withstand the weather. This one did not advertise itself as an indoor/outdoor.

Mine are installed indoors, but I imagine they'd be OK outside. The finish appears to be pretty high quality.

I use mine outdoors but they are shielded from the weather. I have them in old fashioned glass jars.

We have used them on our solid oak floors (not pr-efinished) and have had no problems, it's actually quite cute and hilarious to watch them in our cold Chicago winter :) These have never been used outside, so we weren't concerned. After we can use them outside, I will have to see if the wheels are scratched up and then they will not be used inside any longer. However, if you do not have solid, or have a softer wood like walnut, I probably would not let them be used indoors.

I use mine indoors all the time for large parties, karaoke, ipod and for band practice. They sound remarkably good even at lowish volumes, but they are designed for and sound best at moderate to loud volumes due to the size of the woofer. Mine are attached to a passive mixer board, because these have their own built in amps. They can be used outside, if they are kept dry. You could fill a small to moderate sized backyard with the sound these produce before distorting . Mount them on speaker poles if using outside, for better sound projection.

I think the manual says it can be used outside. We have only used ours inside.

I used mine inside the house because of the weather vs. electronics. No they are for inside. If you weather proof them like I did and put them inside a water tight PVC tube with PVC cap on the end they will be okay.

I don't know. When they haven't been used outside, I suppose you could use them inside. I did not buy them for inside use. My grandchild uses them outside.

Depends on how wet... might be OK if they don't get drenched.... of course the safe answer is no, must no be used outdoors I think... but might be worth a try... pls. do not blame me if you have problems!

They are rated for indoor use.Which means don't use where they might get damp or wet or exposed to outdoor elements.

Well I haven't used them outside. I bought them for my dogs actually inside. But they are very durable I can't imagine why not.

These are definitely for outside or inside use. Right now we're using them on a balcony and a deck.

I use mine indoors but why not try just 1 or 2 outdoors and see how they fair. My daughter has hers on her fence in the yard. Of course we live in California where we don't have to worry about weather. Good luck
