The product, in the report: Toy remote helicopter
My 9 year old daughter received an Ignite Radio Control Falcon Flyer 3.5 Channel helicopter (Item No. B1113) for Christmas. She opened the box on December 24th and I decided to help her get the helicopter paired with the remote control. The helicopter came with a wire attached to a button which you could press to see the helicopter blades move. I disconnected the wires and unscrewed the back of the remote where I found two batteries, I noticed it needed four more AA batteries which I retrieved and placed in the remote. I read the instructions and attempted to pair the helicopter with the remote control. I placed the helicopter on the floor (flat surface) and mimicked the instructions on how to pair. Nothing happened, the helicopter was not responding. I decided at that point to double check the batteries in the remote. I unscrewed the back of the remote and started taking out the batteries. The first two were warm, the second pair were hot and I tossed them on my ottoman. At this point my mother who was beside me asked what was wrong and I told her the batteries were hot. In my attempt to take out the remaining two batteries (the ones that came with the toy) my fingers were burnt. The last two batteries were extremely hot. At this time I was looking at the remote wondering how the batteries could get so hot when they hadn’t been in no more than 2-3 minutes. While holding the remote I noticed thick grey smoke starting to emanate from the front of the remote control. At this time the batteries were still out, there was no power source and the remote control was smoking. I got up and was about to toss the remote into my kitchen sink but the sink was filled so I tossed it on my granite countertop. I was a bit confused at this point and was trying to take stock of what was happening, I scanned the room and both my daughter and mother were looking at me pointing to the kitchen, I turned around and the helicopter was smoking even more. Grey smoke billowing out of the small remote control so I opened my back door and tossed the remote on the concrete patio to smolder. I contacted the manufacturer on 12/24/2013 and I got contacted on 12/25/2013, they offered me a replacement which I refused, they have also requested I send the defective product back to them which I will do tomorrow 1/7/14.
