mini rc helicopter 6ch image

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

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!

Help choosing RC helicopter?

I'm looking for a helo that mimicks real helicopter controls. (Pitch, Thrust, Roll, Yaw)
I'd preffer something below 200 bucks and that I can add a mini cam to it.

Answer
If you want something than mimics are real helicopter you need something like an Align Trex 450 - a 6ch RC helicopter. The original trex is pretty expensive, but you could get a clone for around $200 (Titan. HK450, Copter X). They are usually sold as a kit and you have to assemble it yourself, but you can also get a ready to fly model. I must warn you thou this hobby is a money pit, they are very hard to fly for a beginner. It takes years to master. You WILL crash and you WILL be spending a lot of money fixing it. So maybe get an RC simulator first and practice for 100 hours or so before even attempting to fly. Its a serious hobby and requires lots of dedication, reading and research. Another option is you could simply get something like a fixed pitched helicopter or a coaxial helicopter or even a quad copter, they are much easier to fly. Quad copters are especially popular for Arial Photography. Good Site: http://www.rchelicopterfun.com/best-rc-helicopter.html
Good luck.
