Toy helicopter can overheat

About 102,000 Thunder Wolf remote-controlled indoor helicopters, made in China and imported and distributed by Westminster Inc., are being recalled because the rechargeable battery inside can overheat and cause the helicopter to melt, the company and the Consumer Product Safety Commission said. This poses a risk of fires and burns. The helicopters were sold around the country between June and December 2007.
