A 2-channel helicopter can go up/down and spin counter/clockwise, but not fly forward. The Air Hogs Havoc has plenty of power and climbs nicely indoors or outdoors.
My recommendation, if you want an inexpensive indoor/micro helipoter is the Air Hogs Helix 6-channel helicopter for $79 at Target or Toys-R-Us. If you want an electric outdoor helicopter, visit www.hobby-lobby.com.
