Great fun helicopter, I have a few mini drones and love flying them but thought it was about time I tried a remote control helicopter and this looked ideal to dip my toe in the water of helicopter flying.
It arrived in a branded lift top box all tightly packed with the helicopter being held down with a plastic strap at the bottom to stop it moving about and getting damaged in the box, it comes with the controller, mini Philips head screw driver, a few spare rotor blades and the USB connection charge lead. The manual is in multi languages but it includes English and the controls are very simple to understand.
I found this quite different to fly to a drone, although it has the normal up and down (power) control with the left stick the right stick controls the tilt forwards and backwards and pan round so to fly it you are lifting off and using the right stick to tilt the helicopter forwards or backwards using the pan to direct the helicopter while applying power from the left stick for motion, not really as complicated as it sounds.
I really like this helicopter, it’s very sturdy as I have crashed many times now getting used to the controls without the slightest sign of damage, I like the idea of being able to charge it from the controller, a very nice feature and the charge rate seems really quick although it does mean having six AA batteries in the controller. It’s very stable and has a really nice hover with the lights being a nice touch and I am really improving the more I fly it now being able to land it in set locations rather than crash landing :)
I have added a video and will also add a few pictures showing unpacking the helicopter, giving it a test and then some flying around, please forgive the quality of the video, my original video is of high quality but the video quality often degrades considerable when uploaded but hopefully not too much.
What I liked
*************
- The helicopter looks great
- Very nice to fly with a good stable hover
- Sturdy, I have crashed it many times without damage
- Comes with some spare parts should you break a rotor
- The charge from controller alternative is a very nice and useful feature
- Reasonable price
- Has lights on the helicopter controllable remotely
- Trim adjustment on the controller to fine tune the turning
What I Didn’t Like
********************
- The manual can be a bit of a pain to navigate with the multiple languages although this is very picky and won’t affect my overall rating
Summary
**********
Overall this is a really great fun helicopter, has some nice features and is very stable when you fly it and for these reasons I have given it top marks. If you have any questions please feel free to ask I will do my best to answer.
