can you fly this outside or is it inside only?

While you technically *can* fly it outdoors, it is VERY difficult. Flying indoors is a blast. In fact, I think this is hands down the best indoor heli. However, if you take it outside, fly it only with 0mph wind on an open grass field. Trust me, you are going to want 20 or more crashless indoor flights before taking it outside.

We mainly used ours outside. My granddaughter would ride it to the park. (She's outgrown it now.)

NO NO NO. The draft from the air conditioner in another room is enough to affect the flights of these small helis. I would NOT use this outdoors. It may fly but good luck having any sort of reasonable control. this goes for all the small Syma helis which I find to be really nice for their small $20-25 price point. You need one of the larger 12-18" (i think those are the sizes are somewhere in this range) and larger heavier helis to go outside.

Yes, this helicopter can be flown outdoors. But I would recommend that you only do it with no, (or VERY light), wind. I haven't let mine get more than about 80 (or so) feet from me, but I've had fun with it even though I don't let it get very far away.Hope this helps.

I gave this to my grandson and yes, he flies it outside more than he does inside, but can be both.

Both. As long as you have a large room you would be fine indoors. I've flown mine inside hotel rooms. But outside is where it's most fun. It even handles the wind pretty well.

This Helicopter Flies Well Outside ProvidEd There Is Little Wind. I've Enjoyed Flying It Inside And Outside.

It's meant to be flown indoors... would only attempt to fly it outdoors during a dead calm as this design is breeze sensitive. The design is very stable, so doesn't really need a lot of space to hover. I fly it in my living room and have never had any real issues,

Its made to fly outdoors. I recommend not buying the helicopter as its nothing but trouble. My battery only last about one minute before it needs to be recharged. There must be better helicopters!

I purchased this for my grandson. He flies it mostly outside, but sometimes inside. He has really enjoyed it.

No, this most definitely *cannot* be used outdoors. (Of course if *extremely calm/windless* then possibly). This is intended to be used indoors. I don't know what you're reading on weight, but the copter itself weighs mere ounces. I've owned several, lots of fun at a low price! J.~

I would say strictly inside. If you decide to use it outdoors it would definitely have to be a controlled environment.

No really designed for indoors. I think the fine print states not to fly outdoors.

Pretty much indoor, but could use outdoors without wind. Helicopter is the size of your hand, very durable.

Primarily indoors, you can control it outside in a light breeze but it is tricky so make sure you are in a nice wide open area.

Outdoor unless you have a basketball gym you can use it in. You practice hovering indoors but that's about it.

My son and I have always found it better to fly in between indoor and outdoor locations. There seems to be greater risk of damage if you drift to far to either location. Once we almost made it outside but the gravity seemed to pull the drone down. Inside where the gravity is lighter and the breeze a little less it is much safer. We only download in our house as we have indoor plumbing so I don't understand the Mac question.
