wow, nice rc helicopter.... nice review

[@Flight6677]

@@edutaimentcartoys thank you

[@fpvpilot7713]

They look nice. I always want an Airwolf with retracts or a Blue Thunder helicopter. I have seen a few Airwolfs but only home built Blue thunder helicopters. Probably copy write issues.

Hello Flight6677, at 10:43 you mentioned that you were using the same C189 Radio transmitter to control all the RC ERA heli ya. That means you just needs a transmitter to control all the heli right.

[@Flight6677]

@@dannyyeoh2340 yes, I have the C129v2, C186, C159, C187, C189, C190 and C123 and all of them can be flown with my C189 transmitter. The transmitters are interchangeable between these models. Even the flip function I believe still works using the non C123 transmitters.

You can do it by cutting the wires when you take canopy off

[@Flight6677]

That's one way but not the elegant way :) I prefer to open it and just unplug it.

[@demlegaspi]

@@Flight6677 i think that's better.👍

[@jonspikes4935]

I have two C189 MD500 they ❤❤💯 i wanna get the c190 but idk for some reason i don't like the way it flys optical flow on are off idk just seems to unstable to me so ima pass on it

[@eonreeves4324]

lol it would be pure chaos if you hit the auto take off button lol

[@Flight6677]

I do think so LOL

[@jeffkraus1457]

Is the largest orange 'Magnum PI' heli a direct drive? Direct drive is where it's at!

[@Flight6677]

@@jeffkraus1457 not sure which Magnum PI helicopter model you are referring to.

[@jeffkraus1457]

@@Flight6677 The large orange/red one, the biggest.

[@jonspikes4935]

C190 flys better if you disable the optical flow

[@Flight6677]

Yes, I agree. I will do that with one of mine soon.

[@RCCopterLove]

Very nice review and comparison of the different models!! Will you do a flight comparison?

[@Flight6677]

@@RCCopterLove Thank you. I can certainly do that soon if of interest. I have been really busy with my day job lately LOL

@@Flight6677 Thanks a lot!!

[@frankl8440]

Hi, seems like this might have less problems compared to C189 which has gear ? Does this flies better than C189 ? Thx

[@Flight6677]

@@frankl8440 yes it flies better and has more control.

[@danialtun5431]

Behind motor spare part have or not dont know daily fly this small motor damage fast

[@Flight6677]

@@danialtun5431 brushless motors are very resilient and last a long time, probably longer than the helicopter so I don’t think it’s a concern. Plus, spare parts are available and cheap.

[@fklotaloi]

Thanks for uploading 👍, although none of these AirBus helis are my thing. Horizon hobby should counter these Chinese stuffs ASAP🤓🤓🤓.

[@Flight6677]

Horizon Hobby will probably get one of these and name it "Blade something" and sell it for double the price. But they will make sure it has a nice manual :)

[@fklotaloi]

@@Flight6677, They soon come up with smethng scale coz Chinese brands already made scale helis popular in the market such as Eachine, XK etc. Survival of the fittest now 🤓🤓

[@cjb405]

Thank for the comparison, all these new scale heli are very exciting. Shame the c190 isnt direct drive as iv seen a few sites selling it that says both motor are dd? If u look at the box art of other models they intend to release i hope they do the chinnok! Very exciting😊

[@Flight6677]

@@cjb405 You are welcome. If they claim C190 is a direct drive main rotor they are wrong. It clearly has a gear, probably the same exact gear as the C189.
