rc helicopter first buy?

ralph

Hi there ,

I am wanting to buy a nice and good RC helicopter from Walkera ...
I was looking at three different models and wish your opinion

1. Walkera 4G3
2. Walkera 4G6
3. Walkera HM 1#

Also the Radio the WK 2602 seemed like a nice buy , the radio that are sold in Sets seem to be cheaper to purchase than buying heli separate and Radio separate , is this a fact ?

I am not an advanced user but have some 4 channel experience , but let that not deter you from your professional (if possible ) advise , I am looking which of these three or similar are good flying helicopter with little issues...

I was looking to spend around 250~400 USD ..

Thank you

Ralph

Answer
I've been flying RC Helicopters for years and have tested out all of these models. Out of all the ones that you listed, the Walkera 4G3 is going to fly the best for the price. If you already have 4 channel experience, then flying this chopper is going to be a breeze.

Also, I always buy my helicopters from the same site. These guys always seems to have the best prices every time I do shopping around the Internet.

Right now they have the Walkera 4G3 listed for $373, which is actually a great price for that helicopter.

Let me know how everything works out, and good luck with your new helicopter!

anybody from Wuhan? I want to buy a R/C helicopter, could you help me? What is the price?

Raja

Answer
Wuhan, China? If so here's a site that sells RC products in China including helicopters...

http://bbs.rcfans.com/index.php

RC helicopters aren't cheap first of all...They start at around 50 U.S. dollars on up to a 1,000 bucks! (here in the U.S anyways...I don't think you'll see much difference elsewhere) A decent one will be about 300 U.S. dollars.

Secondly the shipping is usually outrageous...I went to order one for my husband's birthday and the shipping was $40! (which is highway robbery!!! LOL) The upside is, is that a beginners heli will be cheaper than the rest and will give you entertainment for quite a long time before you "grow out of it" and need something more special...

P.S. You can shave more money by looking into mini RC helicopters...Not only are they less expensive but once you get good you can fly them in the house! ;D

Good luck!

P.S.S. Another great site straight out of China that has helicopters...

RC HELICOPTER EXPERTS!! THIS QUESTION IS FOR YOU!?

Bob

I just ordered a Syma S108. They look very fun and cooler than the S107. What your opinion? Should I have bought the S107 for $22 or the S108 for $30?
Thanks God Bless.

Answer
i have never heard of this model however after looking up the model i can tell you this they are both mini / micro helicopters.
these micro helicopters are ones that are marketed towards people who are new and or just want a cheap helicopter to try out the hobby without sinking much cash on a helicopter. its also smaller and can be used in small spaces compared to full size helicopters. this model should be easy to fly due to its design.

in terms of s 107 vs s 108 they are pretty much the same and you would not see much difference.

the 107 has a larger battery though and could fly for a few minutes longer.

i would say the s108 is a good choice if your only spending like $30

is this your first helicopter?

if its your first helicopter and later your interested in something more challenging or larger you could go with something like what i did for my first RC helicopter that was above the lower entry level. if your interested in something priced a little higher but could perform better.

this is what i did with my first helicopter.

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

i liked it and with help learned to fly using it.

you can find this helicopter at many sites

tower hobbies is a good place to buy from
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 don't 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 don't crash.

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

so the 107 and 108 are not to different. i wo

Best beginner outdoor rc helicopter?

BcRich145

I purchased a syma s107 last month, and im having tons of fun with the little thing indoors. Now i feel i'm ready to move onto a larger, outdoor rc helicopter( to be flown in slight wind ). For the money, what helicopter is best for a beginner? I've been looking on my own and theres just too many for me to make a decision.. I want to try and get the best heli i can for the money (<$150).

Answer
I have heaps of mini helicopters especially the Syma S107- I also have the Syma S032 which is the bigger brother and is not infra red remote so flies out side on a calm day.

It really gets down to how much you might want to spend- If you start going into the hundred dollar mark plus you can not beat Nine eagles helis and of course models from Walkera. First consider cost if you are going to single coaxial blade helicopters they are considerable harder to fly and getting a simulator from Say Ebay for $20 is well worth it as you can practice on your computer. You see one is going from a 3 channel helicopter (syma107) to 4 and 6-7 channel helicopters which have lot more movement hence control gets harder.

I got a Walkera Dragonfly 4G6S 6CH Metal RC Helicopter with a brushless motor for $300 now I know that is more than you want to spend,however my advice is I know once you fly a 4 channel helicopter you will wish you had spent a bit more money to go the full hog as you will be totally hooked, The difference of spending $300 to $150 for a rc helicopter is enormous-built really well many spares available and easy to repair and made of high quality materials,also the remotes can be $200 on their own which are supplied with say the Dragon fly and can be binded with other helicopters.

In your price you can not beat the Skyartec NINJA 400 CCPM 6CH RC Helicopter for around $170- I have put some links to where I buy my helis below-hope that helps.

Which Micro Collective Pitch RC Helicopter is better?

mini rc helicopter prices image

Jon

Looking mainly at 2 nano CP Helicopters, the Blade Nano CPX and the Walkera Mini CP 6. I've heard good and bad about both, if anyone personally owns either of these Heli's can you give me some of your own list of Pros and Cons? Also I have only flown FP Heli's and heard the Micro class is best to learn 3D flying. Thanks!

Answer
actually I own both Walkera Mini CP 6 is better in my opnion Walkera is beter

Things I like with the Mini CP.
1. The landing gear is separate from the frame.
2. Servos are mounted very secure and are very close to the main shaft
3. RX mounted vertically. No foam between the RX and frame mount.
4. Canopy mounts with two separate CF rods.

About the Blade Nano CPX
The Cool
Price is great
Cheap and easy repairs
Incredibly durable, lasting and fun to play

Not cool
Charger does not come with power supply (typical)
No brushless motors stock

What is a good rc helicopter under 100 dollars.?

Donnao

I don't want another mini. Something big.

Answer
There isn't one at that price.

I have no idea what big is to you, but to me it means a 400+ class helicopter. For a 'good' one, you are looking at over $400.

You could get a chinese helicopter, but they are cheaply made, and usually you cannot get spare parts for them - when they break you toss them or buy a new one and use the old for spares.

I need help choosing a rc helicopter to buy i dont want to need professional training?

mini rc helicopter prices image

Q. i have had 2 mini helicopters with auto stabliser but i want somthing more complex im also looking for something costing less than $300 (AUD) thanx for the advice.

Answer
I just recently got into the rc helicopters and purchased the ESky Lama V4. These mini copters are perfect for a beginner or novice who is looking for a unit that is easy to control. Another unit which is the sister to the Lama is the EFlite Blade CX and CX2. Both the Lama and the Blade are what are called coaxial units which give you effortless controlling. If you are looking for something a little more advanced, Both ESky and EFlite offer larger models that require a little more skill. All in all, most of these units will fall within your price range. Hope this helps!

It is equipped with latest Gyroscope technology which is used to stabilize the helicopter's heading, not seen on many old style mini helicopters. The S107 comes equipped with a high grade metal body frame and not a delicate piece of plastic that many RC helicopters are made from.
