Default Swift Mini-X heli...

Well we moved and about a year later I came across my old Havoc Heli. I was never able to really fly it, but our new home has a lot more indoor
flying room so I gave it a try. No go: the battery wouldn't take a full enough charge and finally fried itself (lovely smell).
By now I had the bug to do some indoor heli flying, so I searched the web and ended up ordering one of these this weekend:

Looks like a really nice piece of engineering for $30 (although the shipping cost half that again )

Anyone fly one of these or it's bigger brothers? Any advice? Suggestions?
