I greatly appreciate someone who flies these copters with the nose in the direction of flight and NOT just a lift off and continual non-stop rotation around the main rotor shaft! Good job!! Once saw one of these lift off in Vietnam and just hover rock solid at about five feet for a solid 5 minutes. Must have been testing something.

Very nice! The 'plug in' lipos are very common now but do make it difficult to use a proper charger or discharger (e.g. to put them at storage voltage at the end of the indoor season). I had a go with a Twister Ninja at the weekend which has similar altitude hold and auto land/takeoff (and the plug-in lipo) - these features do make them extremely easy to fly ... much like a stable 'toy grade' quad/drone. I do love these little scale helis - I have a couple of older & smaller ones (AS350 and EC145) with 3 and 4 blade heads respectively, both flown now from my X9D Taranis via a multi-protocol module. They are both 3D capable, but I'm definitely not! 😀Not sure why you'd want to do this with a scale heli anyway - for me the whole point is that they look fantastic while hovering about and flying circuits.

[@winstonsmith7801]

Seems like the provided controller is mode 2 , can it be changed to mode 1 ?

[@123windyron]

Some nice flying.

I have a c186 pro a c187 RC era makes good products I have so many hours on these little hellies and they just keep going great product

[@cjb405]

Does increasing the 'speed' mode increase head speed or just angle of the blades?

[@EssentialRC]

Angle of the blades I think. No noticeable change in head speed as you see in this video where I go from low to medium to high speed and back to low before landing.

[@neilp2]

It increases the maximum ‘angle’ that the helicopter will tilt and therefore maximum speed. Imagine it’s a quad in angle mode.

[@cjb405]

@@neilp2 Great I wanted to check it was not more toy grade with vary speed motor, but glad its got the proper equipment thanks

[@jamescaristo6913]

Does the helicopter need any assembling?

[@EssentialRC]

No. 100% assembled. Even the rotor blades are already attached to the head.

Seagulls were dive bombing my drone so getting a 189 ,camo with rocket launchers to take the gulls out .

[@Raptor50aus]

Can the heli do aerobatics ? Is it collective pitch?

[@Dronesteve-72]

No Aeros and flybarless

[@robertosoest3846]

Is everything working fine??still today.

[@EssentialRC]

Yes...fun heli

[@ToyManFlyer1100]

Yeah, as long as you get one that don't think it's a "Rocket Man To The Moon " space launcher...with a severe and devastating impact to the Earth....Usually results in a total loss....
