They have several indoor flyers...some with interesting designs.  However,

most of these I would call "throw aways".  If it costs $35 here in the 
states, then it only cost $10 or less to make in China.  I don't know how 
good of quality or design you'd expect for that price.  I would just say
it 
is what it is and have fun with it.  Fix with hot glue and scotch tape
until 
it won't fly anymore, then take a final flight and see if you can land it
in 
a garbage can or see what the range is by heading out over open sea.   The

one thing I will say though, is that a lot of times, the cheap little
heli's 
like these take a pretty good beating as opposed to the more "expensive" 
indoor heli's.

Good Luck and have fun...

It's called the 735 Set (Airsquire) and made by a company called
Shuang He (they have a website, but I haven't had a chance to visit it
yet). I purchased the helicopter at a flee market for $35.00. I simply
fell in love with it the moment I saw it flying and had to have one. I
searched the Internet for a picture of the helicopter for you, but
found nothing. The picture from the site below comes the closest. But,
there are major differences. My helicopter has two sets of rotors with
a stabilizer between them, not one rotor as shown in the picture. In
addition, my helicopter's tail rotor is mounted HORIZONTALLY not
vertically as shown in the link. My helicopter is red, not blue.
Besides those differences, the copters look almost identical.

Because of the similarities between the helicopters, I believe that
there is probably just one manufacturer but several distributors of
this helicopter. I'll bet they all have the same design flaw.

Thanks!
