Leider hab ich mit eachine und banggood sehr schlechte Erfahrungen gemacht. Ein eachine e120 kam zum Beispiel defekt. Fliegt leider nicht. Sehr lange warten, und dann kommt frust🤑🤬 Ein anderer eachine den ich besitze fliegt gerne aus dem 6g mode in den 3d mode. Sehr unangenehm wenn man Stabilisierung gewöhnt ist. (Meine meinung) Finger weg von banggood Helikopter 🤑👎💩

[@loganyoutube4818]

It looks like the link takes us to the one that crashes

[@Planespotterdude]

Yeah it had potential. I really appreciate your honesty and transparency here.

[@stanbrewer6079]

Nate as others noted, if your gonna crash test. Grass soft, asphalt hard. Choose wisely.😂🤣😂😆😁😁. ⚓️⚓️👍🧡💛💚👍⚓️⚓️.

[@rc-fannl7364]

Although grass wrapping around props/rotors can easily burn out something. Especially with these altitude hold helis, there is often no single switch motor disarm. I crashed my Nine Eagles Solo Pro micro heli several times and usually the electronics survived, as the motors stop when you close the throttle. But stuff like this Eachine needs some special stick movements/positions to disarm, and then you're almost always too late... It wrecked my Eachine E120, but luckily they replaced it. Mine just suddenly dropped without lowering throttle, and then got caught in tall grass with spinning motors

[@UlisesBatalla]

I have had this heli for two years and we don't have that problem. We also have the E120 and it does not have that problem either. They fly great and alt hold is awesome.

[@BLKBRDSR71]

I love your honest review guys.

[@johnnymaynard299]

Thanks Nate for this review, an honest report showing a good looking product with a fatal flaw . Thanks for showing and stirring us in the right direction. Love your truthfulness and all the stuff you both do for the RC community. AWEWSOME STUFF !

[@stevejackson3564]

Better give Abby the controls

[@stevennagley3407]

Abby busy flying the camera

[@MitchellBolognaniRC]

Awesome video thanks for finding that flaw

[@winstonsmith7801]

I have the 129 V2 and it's really an Indoor heli , but it's great fun for learning and confidence.

[@davidlewis620]

Nate, as I was reading the features list on the Banggood website for this heli it also allows for switching between mode 2 and mode 1, left hand throttle and right hand throttle! I'm not sure but maybe this had something to do with the problem you were having with this helicopter!!

[@TheRcSaylors]

Good thought! It is possible, though I had throttle on the left side. But yeah, I’d say it’s some sort of programming issue in the radio for sure 👍💯⚓️

[@monsterfeet6926]

My RC Era c129 v2 cuts out as well. You should check out the rc era c129 v2. It’s like the Eachine c129 except it CAN DO FLIPS (forward, backward, sideways). Also has an even faster 3rd speed.

[@JohnCuppi]

I just received this exact model to review, the E130S and tried to reproduce the bug -- but it doesn't happen for me, so they must have fixed it or that one you guys have is defective. But the heli is meh -- my swash plate broke in a fairly minor crash, and after I fixed it one of the pins came undone and went flying, sending it for another crash... no spare swash or pins in the box.

[@Ariel-zp6en]

I have a JJRC M05 (same as the E130S), the same defect happens, I had 4 crashes (even pressing the automatic landing button it turns off the engine in flight), to avoid the problem when I go down I follow it on the radio, I give a maximum of 40% command, it goes down slowly but does not turn off.

[@migalito1955]

I don't seem to see a link for the alternative. It looks like two links for the same craft.... Ok, its an indicated video, not a link in the description..... I would still buy this especially if discounted.

[@Fr0stByte917]

continues to test that over the pavement instead of the grass which may help to absorb the crash. =0) good find though. Seems to activate the emergency engine kill which you usually have to hold the sticks down and inward (or outward been a bit)

[@TheRcSaylors]

You know, that’s actually a really good point! I should have flown over the grass, lol. I think I am just so used to that area being my flying space that I didn’t even consider the grass an option 😂😅🤷‍♂️⚓️

[@BenjySparky]

Abby and Nate y'all rock! Peace

[@TheTootie52]

...and THIS is why I'm afraid of RC helicopters!! Having said that... GREAT job, Nate determining/repeating/diagnosing!! Maybe it has a CRASH MODE button!! Thanks Saylors for sharing whatever experience you end up with...always FUN to watch!! 💟👍😘

[@EccoH_]

to be fair, you dont need to be afraid of helicopters because of this. this just doesnt happen with any helicopter. Most if not all other helis dont have this problem, also those extremely big/high end/expensive helis will never have a problem like this so no need to worry

[@k.junior4075]

Pretty bad statement of yours. People should not be afraid to try something not matter how difficult it can be. We all pass for very difficult times not long ago. And it was global control to engross their pockets only by the means of fear. No thing else. I don’t get you avatar looks like you are an old lady. Maybe at your age this could be kind difficult to assimilate technical concepts. But your grandsons and nephew would like to learn something new and enticing and , most importan to leave the eternal cave and get away from social media and cell phones that are enslaving and controlling us pretty bad. Mind my words.

[@BillKisel]

Observation from a grumpy 79-year-old... Man Nate, you got me so upset while watching this video. Why did you not test for that flaw over the grass? I know it's yours to do with as you like but it really hurt to watch you slam the Heli onto the hard surface runway. Ps. I'll get over it.

[@a100nick]

Have you guys thought about going to some local Heli events there is a small get-together October 6th -7th in Cincinnati tickets are on me if you come

[@SightsNjunk]

Can that be corrected by an update?

[@jamesgeorge2852]

I didn't know there was a v2 of the 130 the original was bad in my opinion it would ballon all of sudden in forward flight sometimes bad enough to flip it over backwards and into the ground out of the blue especially if you flew in any wind at all

[@torchs34]

I have syma quad copter, does the same. crazy.

[@1970chevy]

This is a great truth video. Nice.

[@Jambuttie]

Great video. But no link for a better alternative?

[@SamcroHD]

What's a bad issue. The E130 hadn't have this kind of problem and was a nice chopper...

[@GSG-lc5zm]

If eachine is smart they'll get rite on that programming

Hi guys, thanks dor another great video, thumbs up 👍. I cant seem to find your link to alternative heli? What is you recommendation for best first heli for outdoors, under a £100 uk pounds for outdoor flying? Keep up the great vida and good work.....

[@UsernameUnavailable-c3e]

How often do you go flying at Vinton County Airport in Ohio?

[@dailyprophet6641]

Will this bind to the E120 transmitter?

[@BDF-]

Yowza!!! 😲

[@FlyingFun.]

Each one always do the same, make something that could be great but then make some stupid mistake that renderes the thing dodgy and a bit useless lol. I reviewed load of their products and every single one was like this , very frustrating, they always say thanks for the feedback and sometimes sort it but then come out with the next thing with problems lol.

[@EJ-74]

Craziest thing I ever saw 😳 Thanks for showing this 👍🏻✌🏻

[@craigrees5700]

Took my brand new e130 outta the box. The controls work. The main & tail blades do nothing. Anyone know what the problem is? Weird cause the ailerons, etc respond.

[@gregharter8212]

I've had 2 Eachine 130s.. Both went up in flames. will never purchase this heli again. Had read great reviews and purchased the first. Thought it was a fluke. Tossed it and go a second and had the same issue. Love my E129, but will never buy another 130. Burnt too many times.

[@mangokane11]

Happy birthday! Ummm... i forgot who's. That's not the point! It's the happy birthday sentiment that matters! Smh....

[@jedbedrock2944]

Sounds like a programming condition statement error to me.

[@SkunkWorks2001]

Alternative is the same as you were flying (??)

Fatal Flaw = No LEDs 😝

[@oldmandoingstuff8997]

Yea, Newbies are Clueless as I am a 65yo Heli Newbie myself. We Hang on Reviewers Videos an talks to Attempt to Save $$. Tks for your Honesty. Eachine will fix it that Flaw Good Company.

[@gvibes69]

At leaast make the test fall in the grass poor heli ;))) And you investigate other videos to see if it his a flaw or a problem with your unit ???

[@richardbrown9035]

Oooops oppppps something not right??

[@Frobard]

I think you should learn to fly a 'real' (bigger) RC helicopter with only a tail rotor gyro. Then you'll have to do all the flying and balancing of the heli. Train a lot in a simulator first though. First learn to hover without flying around. Then slowly learn how to use the throttle and how to control and balance the heli in all directions. It's a great feeling when you do your first fly around in a big eight without any fancy acrobatics. The bigger the heli the easier it will be.

[@wingtang1180]

I started on a Shuttle in the early 90s. After a few weekends of practice I ventured to complete my maiden solo, even did an axial roll in the process. After landing my builder was like "What?!" I gave the Shuttle to him afterwards cos he needed spare choppers to practice new moves.

[@roadstar499]

He wouldn't like one of those...they take a ridiculous amount of time to master..many just give up after a few crashes and repairs..the guys that fly those are in a class of their own...

[@jeffwhite9392]

Better not let you guys / gal's near an XK K200 then ; wouldn't want to make Nathan cuss ...

[@jimsmalleimb7709]

I would think that if you were TRYING to get it to fall out of the sky, you'd want to do it over grass instead of pavement.

[@TheRcSaylors]

Yes, that’s a good point! I think it’s just been deeply engraved in my head to never fly “behind the flight line” so it didn’t even occur to me.. Have a great day and thanks for watching! 👍😎💯⚓️

[@jimsmalleimb7709]

@@TheRcSaylors : Yep, but I also understand it's hard to take off a small machine like that from grass. I recently bought (because of your review) the Eachine E-120 (took over two months to be delivered and the box was heavily damaged and two rotors were bent!). I take off from the patio in the back yard but then fly it over the grass to be sure if it crashes it'll be fairly soft. Fortunately I've not crashed it yet but although I have flown many RC aircraft over the last thirty years, it's taking me a bit of work to get used to the chopper. The controls are quite different! ;-) Flies beautifully though!

[@roadstar499]

​@@jimsmalleimb7709i used to bring a board with me 14"...can take off anywhere..and also test your skill landing on it

[@pixelpeter3883]

That's something that should have come up during trials at Eachine. So maybe this one is defective?

[@davebedard6478]

Thank you, very informative, curious, did you hear from anyone else having the same problem with that model Or was everyone of them defective
