I would like to replace the rubber bands on my copter sling shot. Where can I find them?

For honesty, you are better off getting the 7" colored rubber bands from Walmart. They are a little shorter than the 8" but are more durable and easy to replace.

the instructions come with them? Is there an online version of the instructions available somewhere?

You will find the instructions included, but they are very easy to use, and they

Well, I see that the batteries can be replaced, but then I read that they cannot be replaced. Are the batteries replaceable if they are? If so, what size are they?

The text clearly states that batteries are included, but are not replaceable, which presumably means the batteries in the toy will last for its entire lifespan. Battery installation has already been completed. Moreover, I have investigated "Google" and found instructions on replacing them I am not sure, but they appear to be watch batteries which can be purchased at the "Dollar Tree" for $1. It may help to know this. I thank you for your kind words and I wish you God's blessing.

The prices are extremely low, but the product is It was hard for me to love these things, but they are just horrible
3/5

However, the ones I received were Airglow Rockets and not Rocket Copters, but they held the same material. This is what it says on the package The situation seems to be grave It is said that an artificial star can light up up to a half-mile of the night sky. I have no idea what kind of conditions are needed for this to be true, but it is an extremely dark level not found Do you have an alarm in your car that has a little LED light that starts to glow as soon as you turn it on? The brightness of these things is astounding. From a distance of a few hundred feet, you can kind of see them. However, they are not very visible. A dull, steady, dim red glow stands in their place as well they don't blink. Talking of heights, let me tell you It really doesn't achieve anything with these. It says the rocket can be launched up to 125 feet on the package I got. The answer is "No. " Only 40 feet will be able to go up these things. However, that assumes you can successfully use the tiny, fragile slingshot things without hitting your own fingernails.

And by the way, the "rocket" breaks when you hit your own knuckles. Several rockets broke as the rocket struck my knuckles twice and the rocket hit the ground twice. In fact, rockets usually break when they come into contact with the ground, which is pretty much ALL THE According to my experience, a generous estimate would be 7-12% A total of 8 successful launches were followed by the rocket's failure

It is absolutely not worth the hassle.

This is a beautiful product and I am very happy with it
5/5

Very nice product! I bought Whenever they have full strength to pull back hard on the sling, these really fly high and they are very fun to play with. The plane flys about 30 miles an hour and my daughter is 6 years old There are 40 feet above the ground. By pulling back, I or my husband can send the helicopter over 120 feet in the air. It is a good idea to get them.

It's hard to understand why bad reviews are published
5/5

It is my fourth purchase, I am not sure what the bad reviews are about. For outside play, this is one of the best toys ever. Because they are so fast and fly, you need enough room for them to fly on top of a roof or get lost! Their whistles and hums are similar to shooting stars and fireworks while there are in the sky. In people's attempts to use slingshots, they are not using the traditional kind. Negative reviews should be removed from the site, according to me. Yes, you get 2 pink copters, 2 orange copters, and 2 blue copters, as well as one of each of the "slings". Buying more is a good idea if you need During daylight savings time, it's worth spending hours outside playing at night!.

It's amazing that these things exist! One of my friends had a brand that was different from the others
5/5

It's amazing that these things exist! A friend of mine had a different brand when we went camping and the kids loved it. A few weeks later, we ordered more for another family trip. Children between the ages of 3 and 5 were with us It was a boy of 6 years old and everyone loved him. was even delighted to shoot them, even as an adult of 31 years old. Being able to get it as high as you can is addicting. Though the 6 year old was able to shoot them pretty well, the younger kids enjoyed watching the adults shoot them as well as their attempts There is only one warning When they used to come down straight, they would sometimes not have the "copter" effect. They would come in pretty hot and could be dangerous if they hit a child. Our kids were very careful to watch if that happened and stay away from While we could not figure out why some do that more often than others, we suspect that it might have something to do with the way you bend the wings because you must bend them individually. Furthermore, I am worried that they will not last for very long. The package I bought lasted us for about three nights of doing them for about thirty minutes a night. We lost a few in trees, however, and a few broke after a lot You can't go wrong with them for the price!.

This is garbage
3/5

People have given me these as gifts after I saw them being used on the beach on vacation and thought they were neat. There will never be another purchase from me. First off, the instructions that came with the package were missing, so we had to search online for them in order to fold and launch the copters properly. In these, the Y-factor was not included Rubber bands wrap around short plastic sticks shown in this picture that have the shaped launch handles. Using these, you could launch the copter into your thumb and the band into your fingertips. On a piece of plastic, a child cut his thumb. Apparently, they also failed to keep the rubber band attached, making the band fly across the yard in the dark, with little hope of finding it in time. This is a poorly constructed and designed site.

The best toys ever
5/5

Taking these copters is a lot of fun. Playing with them every night has become a habit for my boys. The view of the explosions and the spiral back down is just as enjoyable to my husband and me as shooting them in the air. I really like the toy and it is of The last time we used them they were like new, and we've used ours for 2 weeks now. The price is too good to be true.

The best toy ever It was an all-around happy event! They are so much fun! I wasn't sure what to expect, but they are really We launched our 9 and 10 year old daughters and their cousins into the night sky and had a lot of fun
5/5

Despite their name, I would not describe these as 'backyard toys' because the wind can easily blow them in all directions, or on the roof, if the wind is strong enough. Because of when we purchased the items, I haven't had a chance to test for durability, but they have all survived countless landings on the driveway and road without the slightest damage. How you fold the plastic wings makes a significant impact on the quality of a copter's performance some were perfect others didn't fly well. The others were not as good as they could have been (but still enjoyable). You should definitely take a look at Even the parents love it, since it gets everyone in the house smiling and running around outside!.

I love this
4/5

Despite the fact that 3 of the 6 already failed, they were so much fun. In another case, one light refused to stay turned on, and two split their wings along their length, and the wings refused to deploy back. In their entirety, I would have given them 5 stars if they had all lasted 30 minutes. Even so, it was a lot of work trying to keep the kids busy while they were trying to have fun.
