Answer
Yes, it is good. But, if you're a beginner I would suggest this:

Best beginner RC heli out. Like the others, if you are NOT a beginner then buy a 4 channel. 3 channels are made for beginners. If you want the full expierence get a 4 channel

mini rc helicopter fastest?




flu


whats the fastest cheapest mini rc helicopter. With good front and sideways controlls


Answer
What is your definition of "fastest"? Also, front and sideways as in use of ailerons and elevator?
What do you mean by cheapest? Like $40 cheapest? $200?

Usually the fastest helicopter that is modded for a low price costs about $189.99 without the mods. You could make it go about 20 MPH. This is the Co-Axial helicopter.

The helicopter is the E-Flite Blade CX2.

looking for a mini rc helicopter?




shor_d_ing


i used to have a cheap mini rc helicopter and it was not very stable. it quickly was misplaced.
the other day a friend was playing with his new mini heli and it was extremely stable and easy to fly. he said it was a syma. i don't know what model but it was the metal frame.

im wondering if there is any other helis like this out there that are better, his budget was 50 bucks where im willing to spend more. any suggestions?



Answer
DUDE you have to check out the Z-Series Z008 Micro Helicopter w/Gyr !! this is a bad a$$ mini helicopter!! with LED lights

http://www.jatoytown.com/Z-Series-Z008-Micro-Helicopter-wGyro--As-low-as-3382_p_108.html

Its 4ch and VERY VERY VERY stable in the air with an all alloy body! Those cheap plastic 2ch and 3 ch helicopters are very unstable in the air.

This one on the other hand is one of the most stable I have seen for its size. With the hover blades you can even move it side to side which is awesome for a rc helicopter.

the retail on these are 89.99 but tell you what. use coupon code clist30 and that will give you 30% off the entire order which will make that helicopter around 60.00 which is a killer deal for that brand.

There is even a youtube video there on how that little guy flies. Check it out and let me know what you think..

There are other helicopters there too but as far as best mini one, this one takes the cake.

Hope this helps

plz help me



Answer
I have had alot of experience with mini copters. I can say that 99% of the time the spinning issue is caused by several factors.

1. hair(s) just one hair wrapped around the tail rotor can cause it not to fly correctly. Check for hairs and strings , threads , etc.

2. the trim issue takes ALOT of time. It is digital so it needs several seconds to actually register into the processor bs so it can fine tune itself and set itself. Do this very , very slowly. It will take at least 5-10 minutes.

3. The battery connector harness is so tiny that if it is not plugged in snuggly and all the way in, it will cause it not to charge correctly. Try to verify it is snug by wiggling the harness a little. If it is too tight then it is not set correctly. If it is too loose then it needs to be pushed in harder.

While these are some common remedies there are others too.

Feel free too review my other questions I answered for some more info on micro R/C copters.

Feel free to email me for more specifics too.

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

Q. 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.

i want to buy an rc helicopter please recommend (note:price range is less than $300 AUD)?

iv already had 2 mini helicopters but now i want something more complex i dont want to need lessons or anything thanx for ur help


Answer
With a more advanced helicopter, you need practice or you will simply smash your heli into the ground first time out.

(The videos of them doing crazy stunts have an expert at the controls.)

This product comes with a simulator that may be helpful.

What is a good beginner mini RC helicopter?




NOLAsoccer


Syma Mini chinook? Propel Gyrotper? Are these good? and any other suggestions will help.


Answer
The picoo-z Heli's are pretty decent for starters, but the tail rotor tends to break rather quickly. This applies to most helicopters that have seperate motors to power the main and tail rotor.

What are some of the better small Indoor/Outdoor RC Helicopters like the "air hog"?




Brad


Moneys not really an issue, but I don't want to spend like $250 for some RC helicopter I just want to have a little fun with- so $15-40 is my preferred spending area, but I could go higher. Probably not more than $120 or so though.

I did a little search and people are asking really complex questions- like comparing features that don't make any sense to me. I don't know anything about RC helicopters, although I do fly RC gas powered hobby airplanes.

A friend of mine had an air hog that worked great, but then his younger brother got a new air hog for christmas that is different, and doesn't work too well. I've seen other brands that don't work so great either. Does anyone have any recommendations for some of the better "cheap" (as opposed to those several hundred dollar gas RC helicopters my father used to fly) electric mini RC helicopters that can be used indoors and out? Thanks



Answer
For your price range, don't expect a helicopter that can fly outdoors, but you can have a lot of fun with the little indoor electric helicopters with twin main rotors. I can commend the E-Flite brand. They do a little one called the Blade mCX. I fly a slightly bigger one, the Blade CX2, which has had excellent reviews, and which can be taken out on a very calm day. If you don't want to spend as much as that I have also had good fun with the tiny Silverlit helicopters, including the PicooZ TandemZ, which is like a baby Chinook.
