Answer
I own a thunder tiger mini titan e325 3d its electric and i found it easy to assemble( having never done it before)

you can find this heli at many sites

http://www.towerhobbies.com/#

theirs lots of other places you could buy from too.

i would go with electric to start off. gas can be more complicated.

word of advice dont just buy the helicopter find someone willing to teach you how to do it without destroying it.

sometimes they can even help you set it up.

local RC clubs may be able to help you get more info on the hobby.

trust me get help learning so that you dont crash.

its a great hobby and once you learn can be great fun!

I want a RC helicopter and i am unable to find suitable one for me i need some help.?

THE Type of rc helicopter i would like is not a small one that is for kids and not an expert big one but a sort of medium one that i could fly indoors and outdoors and not too exspensive


Answer
HI there,

If you find the mini heli too easy i suggest you start with a 250 sized heli. that is not too big, can be flown indoors and even outdoors on easy days.
You could start with a 4 channel (not 3d).

In my experience this is a very good heli to start with:
http://www.rc-heli-review.com/rc-heli-reâ¦

Easy to fly, very easy and cheap to repair in case you crash it and there are lots of spare parts availible. ALs very strudy model so won't break down on a soft crash.

Good thing is that it's even flybarless wich makes for a superiour flying experience.
Make sure you get the hovering under control before you go all out on the sticks.

It costs 150 dollars but i'll last you a long time before you grow out of this model and you won't break it that easily. If you really want to get into this hobby start out with this one and then after a year you can always upgrade to something bigger and more agile.

any chance to get from someone any spy rc vehicle{a plane , better }?




mclaren_sl


i neeed a spy rc plane or helicopter or even a tank ,must have a mini camera any chance to get that from someone from yahoo answers


Answer
You sure can't from me. I have a plane with a camera on it. But it is not for sale. You could get these planes Ready to Fly at a local hobby shop or online (some with the camera already on it) for around $200.

Besides from that, you can't... unless someone is willing to go through the trouble of posting it on ebay or something...

Good Luck with that! Wonder what you're going to use it for...=/

I don't use the camera, it just came standard with it.

i have rc helicopter question?

I Shall Ri


is it okay for BEGINNER to buy 3 channel helicopter or should i buy 2 channel first? im planning to buy mini helicopter only


Answer
Which models are you looking at?

Most of the 3 channel helis I have seen far outperform the 2 channel helis. The 2 channel models are too unstable in terms of yaw stability. They often spin uncontrollably.

If you have links to what you are considering, post them as additional info (or as another question). then we can give you better purchasing tips.

What do you look for in a RC helicopter that is able to go left and right, back and forth.?




Thang D


My cheap one only flys up and down depending how much power you supply it. I am think it has to do with the # of channel. Can you recommend somthing that is cheap. Thanks


Answer
I have just recently ventured into the RC Helicopter world. For my first heli I decided on an ESky Lama V4 which is what they call a coaxial heli. It has two sets of main blades stacked on top of each other turning in opposite directions & no tail rotor. It offers up & down(of course), sway left & sway right, forward & backwards, and spin left & spin right. After researching them a bit I found that the coaxial heli is perfect for beginners and novice pilots due to the controls being very easy to learn and master. This unit came with a flight simulator that allows you to fly right on your computer using the actual remote for the heli. It also came with a training kit to help aid in first time flights and landings. All this cost me about $85.00. It is a nice sized heli for still being considered a mini. It measures about 16" long and about 7" tall.
There is a another helicopter made by EFlite called the Blade CX and CX2. These are very close in comparison to the Lama but with a little higher price at about $120.00. Both are very nice helis and look great! Also both of these helis are easily upgraded to allow for individual tinkering and likes if your brother decides he really likes the RC helicopter as a hobby. Oh, I forgot to mention........ both of these are electric helis and can be flown indoors as well as outdoors. Hope this helps!

When will the military stop using overpriced military contractors?

small rc helicopter youtube
 on RC-Helicopter-Walkera for sale in Hemmant QLD | RC-Helicopter-Walkera
small rc helicopter youtube image



Lalalalala


And look for innovative citizens who can make things cheaper and far more innovative? As demonstrated by this video.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hfcWBey5T0&feature=relmfu
Reagan - Don't be asinine. Building a huge helicopter drone isn't going to be doing anything for surveillance besides making a huge overpriced target. That's likely to be shot down and reengineered by entrepreneurial Chinese technicians.



Answer
Actually, you'd be surprised at how much DARPA will talk to people from small industry and businesses to make developments. I know a lot of the Navy relies on small business for our work (especially in the industrial/manufacturing side of things). These guys just haven't sold it to the right people. And there's a really thorough contracting and testing process for things like this. People in the defense industry are great at saying they can come up with all sorts of great things cheaper, but then don't deliver. Once you have to try and make it meet government standards, it gets harder.

The military will stop using overpriced contractors when they can produce it on their own, cheaper. Which will never happen, since the military has gotten out of the "owning industries" business, and relies on civilians to do it cheaper.

While he may have reduced production costs, he's made some of the other costs harder. Wireless RC remotes aren't going to work for counter-IED robots. Wires are better. If you have to go with wireless, that's going to cost you a lot in making the controls work around the counter-IED Jamming.

A lot of the reason we go with big companies is experience-they know how to deal with government contracting. It's easier some of the times to go with familiarity who can meet government standards. This is before we talk about the overall program development process, which is a huge bureaucratic nightmare that has some areas that rightly should be reformed.

"Building a huge helicopter drone isn't going to be doing anything for surveillance besides making a huge overpriced target"

O RLY? Because you've seen the videos and watched what they can do? I have, and I vehemently disagree with your statement. Even if they get shot down, so what? It's cheaper to do that than use a manned aircraft to do the same thing, since there's no risk of pilots getting killed. And actually, they are FAR less of a target, than a manned aircraft. They crash more, but that's a developmental phase and control problem. Again, though, who cares if they crash?

i need to stop my heli mini from spinnning out of controll and falling?




resean25


my helicopter every time i fly it will fly up in the air and stay their for a second and then willl just spin out of controll and fall and i wanted to know is there anything i can try?
Ps> I got the hair out of the taill rudder and it still does the same thing and i dont want to spend more money on another if i dont have to so can anyone plez help me. Thanx



Answer
Which heli is it? That will help us help you.

If it is one of the bottom end 2 channel helis like the Picco Z or the Havoc, then besides hair, there are 2 more things that will cause this.
1. The tail blade has a crack in it. It inly takes a very small crack to make the tail less effective and it spins. Most models come with a replacement tail blade in the package.
2. You have a defective heli. Of the 30 or so models that I and my fellow RC club member purchased, fully 50% failed in the way you describe, out of the box.

You can also ask on the dedicated RC heli forums:

What model is the best mini RC helicopter? I want it for indoor use, and would like it to be able to hover. Of course battery life and operating time are also factors.


Answer
I bought the Air Hogs Apache Havoc Heli for my fiance, it was $25 on sale at Toys R Us, it comes with a little target that you can shoot with a laser. The target is shaped like a satellite, it blinks and make noise etc. It is a pretty cool toy, the charge runs down after a while but he has never been very bothered by it. The only thing I hate is that hair will get tangled in the tail rotor and it will break, but you can get replacements by calling their company that are cheap. It hovers well, the turning is a little hard but you get the hang of it. I also bought him the UFO one, but it is not as fun even though it has cool light up action. So, that is my review of that although I haven't played with any others.

The tail rotor on my Mini RC helicopter broke and I have a replacement but I need help.?

 on MINI 3Ch RC Helicopter metal airframe first day
mini rc helicopter broke image



seth w


I have the replacement, but when I put it on, it spirals out of control. If I look at the original and the replacement, they look identical!

What is wrong and how can I fix it?



Answer
You need to make sure you have the tail rotor oriented correctly. It is possible to install a tail rotor backwards in some cases, which would just make your heli spin like crazy.

I could give you a better answer if I could see/knew exactly what type of tail rotor you have. However, generally the tail rotor must blow air to counter the rotation of your main rotor blades.

E.g.:
- if your main blades rotate clockwise
- tail rotor pushes the tail clockwise also

This stops the tail's tendancy to rotate counter to the direction of the main rotor blades.

Alternatively, depending on the type of heli, you may have issues with your tail gyro adjustment, tail gyro direction setting, or tail servo linkage adjustment.

Hope that helps

What kind of rc helicopter should I be getting?

Chance


My dad is going to be getting me something for Christmas, $85 limit. I want a rc helicopter. Ive only had cheap walmart ones before, so i need some expertise. Im wanting a namebrand fairly decent sized helicopter that will be able take some minor crashes. I did a little research and it seems that the Align T-Rex 250 is decent. Any ideas? Remember I have $85 to spend, including taxes and shipping.


Answer
I wouldn't recommend the Align T-Rex 250, and it's over the budget anyways? The smaller the helicopter, the more crashes it can resist, and the cheaper the replacement parts are. Just the battery looks like it's 3 times more expensive than a mini helicopter, and you will need extra batteries if you would like to fly for more than 10 minutes.

Do you have a radio/controller already? If you do, you could buy the BNF version of the helicopter and it will be cheaper. If you don't, then look for the RTF version that comes with a radio/controller.

The Blade MCX RTF is $80 at Horizon Hobby
http://www.horizonhobby.com/products/blade-mcx-rtf-EFLH2200
It's a coaxil heli, so you will have to fly it indoors and outdoors only when it's not too windy. It can take a good beating, better than the t-rex, and the parts are pretty cheap.

These 3 are some I have looked at while I was doing research about rc helicopters when I wanted to purchase one. These are fun, you won't be able to do 3D tricks with them though. It depends how many channels was the one you had, these are 3 channels and good practice.

The Syma S107 is $27 at amazon. It's a beginner helicopter, but it's small and reviews say it does good in taking crashes (4 out of 5 stars).

The Helizone Combat fighter 3.5 Channels looks fun. It's $36.99 on amazon, and you can look up videos on youtube.

The Syma S107C has a built in camera, and it's $39 on amazon.


I purchased the Nano CP X BNF, and a DX6i receiver, and depending your age and experience, this is not a beginner one. But it's just something to look for in the future if you want to get into the hobby. The heli cost me $160 online, and the reciever/controller (DX6i) cost me $70 USED.


You could also suggest to him to look on craigslist for used ones, don't be uptight about it and demand a new one if your father can't afford ones over $85. I bought the DX6i for my boyfriend from craigslist, and it came in original box and everything, for less than half the price, and he loves it anyways. You could find a used Blade MCX or MCX2 for a really good price, and if it's from a person that looks like it's their hobby, it will probably be very well taken care of.


you or your father should check out this forum's for sale threads:
http://www.helifreak.com/forumdisplay.php?f=6

you can also feel free to ask questions on there, or check out the "newbie" section for advice, there has been many people also asking for a beginner heli, so you can read the responses.

Don't try to get a "professional" type helicopter because for those you need to make a bigger investment than just the helicopter. For an advanced heli you need an advanced radio, not the ones it comes with, and you will need to purchase a simulator to practice on because crashing the helicopter will cost you a lot of money!

Goodluck and have fun :)

whatis the difference between 3channel and 4channel rc helicopter?




Lito T


this is for hobby , remote control helicopter


Answer
Hi Lito,
A typical 3 channel heli has throttle, yaw and pitch.
Throttle makes the heli go up and down.
Yaw makes the heli turn left and right.
Pitch makes the heli lean forward and back (making the heli fly forwards and backwards).

A 4 channel heli adds roll.
Roll makes a heli lean left and right (making the heli fly sideways to the left and right)

That addresses your question, but I recommend this additional reading:

How do I Make a RC Remote?




Alex


I lost the remote for a Brookstone Silver Bullet helicopter. I know that it's not a big deal, but I don't just want to throw it away. If you don't know the answer, can you think of some creative ways I could use the parts of the helicopter? By the way, this helicopter still works perfectly and the romote uses an infrared senser. Thanks!


Answer
You could try contacting Brookstone and see if you could by an extra remote. Or, since they seem cheap ($29.99) just buy a whole new helicopter/control, and then you'd have an "extra" helicopter for parts. http://www.brookstone.com/mini-remote-control-rc-helicopters

Trying to build your own remote would be next to impossible (unless you're an electronics engineer, in which case why are you asking?)

Another possibility is to try a different brand of helicopter, such as the Blade series helicopters from Eflite. They are quite a bit more expensive, but they use what is called "Bind N Fly" technology which allows you to use better transmitters for the helicopter if you wish. As well as the Blade helicopters are fully repairable down to the last little screw or bit of plastic. I have the predecessor to the mSR X, and I love it. Tough as can be, challenging to fly (if you've never flown a heli before) but once I learned how to do it, it is tons of fun.

the Blade mCX coaxial helicopter (similar to your Brookstone in that it is coaxial)
http://www.horizonhobby.com/products/blade-mcx-rtf-EFLH2200
or
the Blade mSR X which is a single main rotor with a working tail rotor. Harder to fly, but much more realistic looking.

Which mini rc helicopter is better? Air hogs havoc heli or havoc stinger?

mini rc helicopter controls
 on Indoor Flight - Micro / Mini RC HelicopterGuide
mini rc helicopter controls image



usamonkeys


Which mini rc helicopter is better for controlling and which has a longer lasting battery? I wanna do stunts with it and fly it around the house. I can only choose between the Air hogs havoc heli or the havoc stinger.


Answer
They are both the same. The only difference is the design of the two helicopters. The Air Hogs Havoc is in a Helicopter shaped body and the Air Hogs Stinger is in a Stinger Bug shaped shell or body.... You can NOT do stunts with both helicopters because they are 2 channel helicopters. The only stunt you could do is probably spin in mid air. Both could be flown around the inside of your house but NEVER outside. They both fly about the same and have the same battery time. They vary helicopter to helicopter just by a few seconds. So it is all up to you. I personally suggest the Havoc because it looks more of a helicopter.

Have a happy flying with your future purchase!

Where can you buy or make a computer controlled RC helicopter with realtime video?







Where can you buy or make a computer controlled RC helicopter with realtime video? I can make it or buy but I don't know where to find it.


Answer
Computer controlled is really hard to make and you will have to know a lot about or just know a person who does electrical engineering to build your own system.

What I would suggest you do is to get a RC helicopter that is very stable to fly like this http://www.xheli.com/50h33-warhawk300-q4-comancheblue.html. This is a coaxial helicopter, it's hover by itself and you wouldn't need to worry much about it. The reason I would use a big one is because there would be more space to store a camera. Most of the cheap coaxial helicopter are only made from plastic with no metal bearings and can only fly up and down anyway.

After you have your copter set up, something like this will help you:
http://hackedgadgets.com/2005/08/10/computer-controlled-rc-helicopter/
http://www.endurance-rc.com/pctx.html <buy an adapter to connect to your transmitter, it should come with software
Note: You may have to re-program the controls in order to control your helicopter from computer.

For the camera, get something like a mini helicopter cam like http://www.xheli.com/72p-90-carcam.html or http://www.xheli.com/72p-52-voicecam.html. Get a electrician to help you design a wireless connection system between your computer and the camera. OR buy a wireless camera out of a shop that can fit into your heli. This website has the technology you talk about: http://www.geekalerts.com/real-time-video-rc-helicopter/

What you may want to search up is UAV helicopter designs. Many people use bluetooth to control their helicopter but I would stick to radio transmitter.

Answer
If you really want a durable model i suggest you go for the Syma S107, practically indestructible and one of the best micro heli's out there for that kind of money.

Check:

One of the best sold heli's and that is not for a reason, it's simply the best quality mini heli out there.

Good Luck.
