Had my heart in my mouth when you went close to that tree 😅😂 fair play for the turn, you must have missed by an inch or two 😂

[@TandTRC]

Me too!🤣

[@chazzy1237]

Very cool!! It looks like a blast!!!!

[@TandTRC]

Definitely is. I had to order a couple more batteries.😂

[@spike--]

I can't believe it survived!👍🏻👍🏻

[@TandTRC]

Me either!🤣🤣🤣

[@GreyShooter]

Hey, you can have fun and blow the leaves off your track at the same time! Win,Win! 😂 Very cool, that looks like a lot of fun. 👊😎🇺🇲

[@TandTRC]

True!😎👊

[@thatsmyrc]

Any Rc is a fun Rc you did good 👍🏼 nice little sparrow bird 🚁👍🏼

[@TandTRC]

Thank you sir.😎👊

[@motobator1895]

I was flinching right there with you tools. Looks fun.

[@TandTRC]

🤣

[@charlesmorgan1879]

That does look fun ! The birds & squirrels are nervous...

[@TandTRC]

They've been slinging acorns at me ever since this flight!😂

[@charlesmorgan1879]

@TandTRC 🤪

[@LuckyDog350X]

This end of the hobby is totally new to me, never had or tried anything that flies, but for the cost it is a super way to try it out to see if it suits you. Thank You Sir.

[@TandTRC]

Same here. I was actually surprised how easy it is to fly. I was just outside running it some more. Got a couple extra batteries on order.😆

[@yuvgotubekidding]

Nice save heading straight into the tree. 😬😁😎🇺🇸👊

[@TandTRC]

My teeth were clinched the whole time!🤣

[@gingerman6560]

Cool heli. You got my anxiety up a little with the landing lol. Nice run though for the first time

[@TandTRC]

I went full panic mode!🤣

[@scarifrougeone7225]

Yep, I was going to say strap that camera on. After you get the hang of the flight and controls. Pretty sure you won’t be able to strap on any of your armaments. lol 😂 Anyway very interesting I have never messed with anything like that before. Reason being I would have in 50 different after the first flight attempt. 😂. Good first time flyer, be safe and thanks for sharing. 🇺🇸⭐️🇺🇸⭐️

[@TandTRC]

I definitely expected to need the spare rotors.🤣

[@YellowHammer26]

👍👍pretty good for your first flight. I would have had to have been in a big field or I would’ve busted one of those trees. 😊

[@TandTRC]

😂 It's easy to start panicking for sure.😆

[@clutchcargo1239]

Lol, you did alright for a newby chopper pilot. Setting 3 would be better for me. I love choppers, quads, and planes... Enjoy!

[@TandTRC]

I was out running it today. Level 3 is definitely the way to go. It's more responsive for sure. Now I gotta check out some more.🤭

[@jasonschell9860]

I was waiting for you to get something that flys! I knew it was coming 💯

[@TandTRC]

Super fun little helicopter! Good thing about this one is even a total loss crash only puts you out like 80 bucks. Not a small amount of money, but not near as bad as some of the really high-end big ones.😆

[@jasonschell9860]

@ amen brother. My buddy does drones and it’s kinda cool. His return home and land themselves and stay out even in wind but they are high end so I don’t fly it

[@steelpunisher6944]

Yes! Lol. You are a natural my friend. My first flight was disastrous and expensive 😂. That is a real cool little chopper. This is such a fun channel. I enjoy all your content 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@TandTRC]

😂 Appreciate that. I made sure to take a few pics before the video just in case there was nothing left afterwards!

[@Raven_96001]

That looks fun as heck.

[@TandTRC]

I was just outside flying it again in a bigger area. It's pretty fast even in the strong wind today.

[@Raven_96001]

@TandTRC I'm an old man, 50 now. I come here from your pew tube. I'm currently in the middle of a pew build so I'm committed, but you got me over here about to delay my forward progress. Lol

[@l.a.3887]

Pretty cool 🇺🇸 👍 😎

[@TandTRC]

🚁😎🚁

[@tendraftsdeep]

You figured that out quick! Nice choppa!!!! Makes me want to get one or a drone. Fun video!

[@TandTRC]

Too much fun! I already ordered a couple extra batteries.😂

[@tedcollins4684]

Usually a 1st flight ends with bad language and broken parts. Nice job.

[@TandTRC]

Thank you sir. That's what I expected.😂

[@jeff9062]

I remember back in the day we used to learn with handmade gliders.

[@TandTRC]

Yeah I was expecting that kind of control, but this thing is really nice for sub 100 bucks.

[@jeff9062]

@TandTRC That's a smokin deal, specially for rtf stuff! I'll tell you though, nothing beats large gas models. 🤩

[@raybo34]

You handled that pretty dang good. Looks like a lot of fun. I've flown drones before but that looks like a lot more fun. I can't wait to see what else you get. I built and flew balsa wood planes as a kid. Those were a lot of fun.

[@TandTRC]

Definitely some fun stuff.😎👊

[@MrBowser2012]

Nice flying! I tried to fly one once and it was a mess😂

[@TandTRC]

Thank you sir. It went way better than I was thinking it would.😂

[@1erinjames]

Gift idea accomplished!! Thank you Tools :)

[@TandTRC]

I ordered a twin pack of batteries for this one.😆

[@6feetunderwater357]

Cool

[@TandTRC]

Definitely some fun.😎👊

[@JarofMayonaise]

Set your trims inside your house/garage where there is zero wind. Once you lock it in with zero wind you can better trim it out to compensate for wind. I used to have a bigger one like this.

[@TandTRC]

You're exactly right. I ran it inside and got it nice and stable. Also realized there was a hidden little setting for the blade pitch that made a pretty good difference in how zippy it is. I got a couple more battery packs on the way to get the hang of it better.

[@brandiwynter]

I've had the tiny indoor heli's for years and they are still super fun. I have a small 'non stabilizer' helicopter thats made for experienced pilots and its come out of the box ONCE to show me I am not skilled enough to fly it LOL. It's cool but yikes! We also have one of the big ones (about 5x the size of yours). It's needing to come out now that you've reminded me. I think I need one kind of like yours. My 'beginner' heli won't fly outside because of interference from mystery sources and it'll make the heli just shut off and fall straight down. In it's defense it says it's an indoor only.

[@TandTRC]

I was really surprised how easy this was to fly. It can go way faster than I showed in the video too. I was nervous as a cat in a rocking chair factory the whole time!😂

[@diggernash1]

Try to imagine that you are sitting in the cockpit. That's the trick I used when I got into RC planes about 40 years ago.

[@TandTRC]

🚁😎👊🚁

[@bruceshelton5043]

Oh no your hooked, just Wait you will get too gas powered ones with a camera.......there very fun, I have done plane's, cars, boats, helicopter's, never done drones, way too much fun

[@TandTRC]

The worry of crashin and burnin with one of those high dollar ones keeps me gun shy.😂

[@tommylitchfield3450]

Tools, I wanna apologize for ANY negative comments or criticisms, past, present, or future.... PLEASE don't Air Strike me!! :)

[@TandTRC]

🤣🤣🤣 🚁💣💥

[@tommylitchfield3450]

@@TandTRC If I wake up and hear "Flight of the Valkyries" like in Apocalypse Now, I will be expecting a Boom Boom any minute!!

[@brandiwynter]

I'm wanting to get a large "Airwolf" heli. What'll humble you is trying to land lol. I use a much smaller pad though lol.

[@TandTRC]

They have some really cool looking ones on their site. Some expensive stuff.

[@brandiwynter]

@TandTRC I like to put on my helicopter helmet and fly the little helicopter around the house. My sister says I look like a nut but I'm having fun. I'm young enough to do crazy stuff and old enough not to care what anyone else thinks lol. You're going to need a flight helmet to master heli's lol. Maybe Cleetus has an old one he'll let you have lol.

[@scottneedham9765]

Yeah that’s pretty cool especially for $80

[@TandTRC]

Way cooler than I was expecting for the price.

[@MrBumbles2]

just a basic lidar sensor , measures distance

[@TandTRC]

😎👊

[@SuggestedJudgement]

have this one in blue!! but I’m having trouble trimming it because I have such a small space to work with 😭 I believe it has crashed in my walls for more than 5 times now and I’m surprised only scratches are made 😅

[@TandTRC]

I crashed mine inside a couple of times too getting it trimmed. I got it pretty good now. Waiting on a couple of extra batteries to get here so I can try to get some on board video from it.

[@shaunharvey1112]

I miss the mcx2 I had years ago is there replacement motors and electronics available for it im thinking I need one

[@TandTRC]

I bet you can find em somewhere.

[@1erinjames]

Flight time on one charged battery?

[@TandTRC]

I would guess just under 10 minutes if you ran it constant. I really need to time that on the next pack I run. Kinda hard to say for sure with all the trimming and adjusting I did on this first run.

[@TandTRC]

I just ran the 4th pack through it earlier and timed it at exactly 11 minutes until the led started flashing. That was on lvl 3.

[@1erinjames]

@ thank you for reporting back!! 11min is not bad for run time on one of those. Gona get even more fun with more batteries!! :)

[@cliffcampbell4267]

Is this the jelly shooter?

[@TandTRC]

💥😎👊💥

[@SuggestedJudgement]

Would you still do more RC Helicopters in the future? 🙏

[@TandTRC]

I'm thinking about getting the little Huey they have.

[@SuggestedJudgement]

@@TandTRC I’ve been seeing those everywhere lately 🔥 I’m thinking of getting Esky 150 bl or Esky 300 V2 next!! I think their designs are timeless

[@TandTRC]

@@SuggestedJudgement I don't know much at all about RC helicopter brands so I'm not really sure which are good and not good.

[@SuggestedJudgement]

@ Esky is an OG brand and they’ve made about 3 versions of the Airwolf now, Esky 150 bl being the latest version and RC Era has been dominating the rc helicopter game I must say

[@harrydickson4575]

👍👍👍

[@TandTRC]

😎👊

[@g54b95]

I was hoping you'd branch out into something that flies! I bought a RTF electric helicopter (IR control - not RC) on ebay about 4 years ago. $17, brand new, with free shipping (from china). It has counter-rotating rotors and is really easy to fly indoors. Funny thing is, if you google it, there are all kinds of sites that pop up talking about how it's trash, etc. Come to find out after some research, there are inferior clones of these being sold for less money. People are commenting stuff like 'Oh, if your tail motor is blue, that's a fake.', etc. So think about that. Mine cost $17, with the copter, 'radio', usb charging cable, extra rotor blades, shipping from halfway around the world, etc. and there is enough meat on that bone to actually have a factory cloning these and selling them as conterfeit and they're still making money. Unbelievable. Mine is an OG, and it kicks ass, btw.

[@TandTRC]

You see that a lot with gun parts on Amazon too.😆

[@randyhavard6084]

My son has been after me to get him a helicopter or a plane for a while now
