It would be if it worked but sadly i opened it up and the remote refused to pair even once. It was a waste of money

This little Syma X3 is not really for the outdoors, especially if it's windy. But it will do just fine for short distance sunny non windy day. It's a lot of fun inside and out.

It could be an outdoor helicopter but as long as there's no wind you'll be fine flying it outside

Sure...Go to Youtube and type in the search: Syma S031G RC helicopter - Onboard camera- Flying around. Hope this helps.

I got this for my Fianc because he loves helicopters and was jealous of all the helicopters that my father had. This is probably one of the best little quadcopter that doesn't break the bank. It is amazing outside!! And extremely easy to use. If you want to use it outside, then this is the quadcopter for you!

We had to hold the helicopter in our hand above the ground to fly. We ended up returning the item to Amazon. Not worth the money and did not represent the description at all. Sorry!~

The helicopter is ready to fly out of the box. It takes a lot of practice if you haven't flown one before as others stated and I found out. I would order 2 extra batteries. I ordered 2 extra ones but I didn't realize that their technology was different and they don't last as long as the one that came in the box. I ordered extra parts but I haven't had to use them. The helicopter is very tough. It got caught in a strong wind when it was about 30' high and I shut it off to keep it from going across a road. Only the landing structure was cracked. The rotor blades have hit hard items many times without a problem. The helicopter is ready to fly out of the box.

It runs on battery. The only "electric" part is charging the battery with electricity. Let me reiterate what a joke this helicopter is. It's not as tough as it claims to be and I really wish I would've considered other people's reviews before I purchased this.

Yes it is, you can learn how to fly it but you should take a look to YouTube videos before trying to fly it.

For the price it is good and on the easier side to use. If it is your first one start with an indoor one first. They can be hard to handle outside and this helicopter is really small.

Yeah it can fly outside, but the wind has to be zero and you will be adjusting the trim to account for unseen breezes. I honestly wouldn't by this helicopter because it will decide to take off at full throttle and crash uncontrollably because you have to cycle the power toggle up and down to break the helicopter doing its own thing. Good news is that it is durable And can handle most if the crashes

Yes-- but not on a windy day because the helicopter is light and will get blown around. It's super fun to fly inside-- it's very precise and fun to control (this is all info from my 17 year-old son... I just bought it-- I don't fly it:))

Can fly outside, but in a very quiet environment. Slight wind can disrupt a good operation.

It is similar to a remote helicopter. It is controlled through an app downloaded on an apple device or android device.

It is not a mini helicopter. It is an average size toy helicopter. Not one of the larger ones.

It will fly outdoors, but it is very light and the slightest breeze can carry it away.

No. I have had two of these, and I reached the conclusion that they are not suitable for outside. They may be durable, but if there is any amount of wind they will drift away. In the case there is less than 1mph of wind, the controller has a hard time keeping connection and the helicopter will constantly fall to the ground. Very frustrating for outside use.

It is a remote control. I wouldn't suggest this as a first helicopter for a child; 12 year old to learn on, as it is a 4 channel helicopter. Now if he/she has had plenty of practice and is proficient with a 3 channel helicopter, this is definitely the next step up from there. It is an awesome 4 channel flying helicopter, but I personally feel it is a graduated step up from the basics of a 3 channel helicopter. I recommend the Syma S107/S107G R/C Helicopter Helicopters for starters. They are some excellent 3 channel; up/down, left/right, forward/backward flying helicopters for anyone that is just learning to fly and you can usually buy them for around $20. I hope this helps.
