So no trolling. I just put my 4th battery through my Bell 206. Lemme be clear. If this helicopter didn't fly properly I was freaking done with ERC. Each one Ive had before had some kind of flying quirk that was just terrible. They had amazing scale bodies but put them into the air for precision flying in my basement (I'm picky sorry) and they never cut the mustard. Outside they flew fine. But thats not why I wanted them. THIS ONE. Straight out of the box...perfect. Smooth as silk. I can land it on that H dead center with little effort. A+ and that scale body is phenomenal. For the price I feel like I won the lottery. If the newer ones keep flying like this I'm IN. Bring em on.

Nice price but having a code would be good too. Nate, I see that for $5 more you can get "optical flow localization". Why not just swap the connector out and use any battery you want or isn't that possible? And what protocol does it use? Can it fly using an EdgeTx 4in1 transmitter?

@jimsmalleimb77094 ай бұрын
THANK YOU for doing this! I was wanting to buy one and was waiting for your review of it! I love these small cheap scale helicopters. My only beef is they got the shape of the nose wrong. They obviously copied the same flaw seen in the old Revell 1/32 scale model kit of the Jet Ranger. The front windshield should not curve into the nose like that. Have a look at the real ones and you'll see what I mean. I'm a bit pedantic about scale accuracy I guess. But I'm definitely gonna get one of these. Torn between the red or blue one though. I love the Eachine 120 you reviewed a year ago and I got one. Flies GREAT! Even affordable in Canadian pesos. Comes to just under $120 CDN.
@munz18704 ай бұрын
I just purchased this heli and currently in transit. But I noticed there is a optical flow version & and one that isn’t. I’m wondering if your heli didn’t have it installed and that’s why it’s not hovering in a stationary position. Btw your channel is amazing and continues to deliver great content!! Fan for years.

How does this compare to the Eachine E120 , from a beginners stand point?
@jimsmalleimb77094 ай бұрын
A few observations and questions: On Banggood's web site you have the choice between optical flow or not. The Eachine 120 (painted gray), for example, has the optical flow, but the “RC ERA” model (in orange) does not. (I bought both) But I wonder which is the parent company of these models since in the case of the 120, they are absolutely identical except for the optical flow and the colour? Also, On the Banggood site, they give you a choice between “master control” and “ordinary remote control” with a few dollars difference. What IS the difference between the two other than price? It’s not explained. Can anyone definitively answer these questions?

We also just gave away a RTF helicopter to a local fundraiser to help generate money for a new dugout for the local parks baseball field for little kids, all in the last week or so for example. 😁❤️✝️💯⚓️
