How to Fly an Air Hog Helicopter
Spin Master's Air Hog radio-controlled helicopters are lightweight, battery-powered toy aircraft. Air Hogs use a rechargeable battery to power two or more rotors for five to 10 minutes of flight time. They maintain stability while in flight by balancing the thrust between the front and rear rotors. Learning to fly one takes a little trial and error, but it's easy once you get the hang of it.
