What model is the best mini RC helicopter? For indoor use...?




linzter


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.

I need a really small wireless built in battery spy camera to put on my rc helicopter please help.?




Vala


please notice that my helicopter is very small as you can see in this link
http://www.brookstone.com/mini-remote-control-rc-helicopters.html?bkiid=hmpg|mn_flash|627067p|new|s2
I live in san marcos CA so remember to mention a link that is available in my city.



Answer
The hardest part is finding something small enough to work with your helicopter. Most of the miniature spy cameras run on a 9 volt battery.

Is your helicopter strong enough to lift a 9 volt batter? How about two of them? You could try taping two batteries together (do NOT connect their terminals). If you can fly that around, you can probably find a good spy camera to use.

If you can't lift the batteries, then the costs for a wireless mini camera is going to go WAY up. Getting super tiny cameras is quite expensive.

i want to put a mini camera into an rc plane?




Guitarzan


I want to put as small of a camera available into an rc plane and see a live feed to see as if i was in the plane. Can anyone help?


Answer
I can Recommend a 2.4 G spectrum - onboard DV520T by Mustek which can be used on RC cars, RC planes, RC helicopters, and RC boats if you keep it dry. It has crystal clear quality and you can see a video which persuaded me to buying one myself. It also gives live streaming to your computer.

rc helicopter servo?




T C


What is servo for? what does it do ?


Answer
A servo is a small motor that is hooked up to the reciver. When the reciever gets a signal from the remote, it tells the servo to move. When the servo moves, it is connected to a linkage that controls either the elevator, aileron, pitch, collective, rudder, or engine power. It does this by either pushing or pulling a ball link which pushes or pulls other links to cause movement of the main blades, tail blades, or throttle. If you are thinking about getting into the hobby, I would say go for it. Before you try to fly anything though, you should go to a flying field to talk to other pilots and get the required permits and license. Good luck, and happy flying.

What does determines the weight that can be lifted by a helicopter?




Hilol007


I am trying to find a RC helicopter able to lift objects, what determines the weight that can be lifted by the RC helicopter? The RPM of the blades? the blades' size?

Thanks



Answer
in real helicopters, a lot of factors.

for the most part, those can be reduced to engine power and main rotor efficiency being the critical point.

engine power AND altitude/temperature are the most limiting factors for slingload operations, where you HAVE to hover with your load.
for internally transported payload, you can use rolling takeoff/landing, which enables you to lift more.

the MTOW and mass and ballance and other factors come into play, too.

for your application- be sure your payload is placed as close to rotor axis /center of gravity as practical.

anyways, for practical reasons all the "decorations" common RC helicopter has, they can be all removed and replaced with payload.

in small RC helicopters, the RPM of the rotor influences the lift. in real life, we use collective pitch.
yet increasing RPM is not a cure for everything. you have to observe blade loading from centripetal forces etc.

What RC helicopter should I get?




Tactical


I'm 15 and I wanted to get an RC helicopter. I've only had one mini helicopter before but I want to get an Intermediate helicopter, because I'm buying it with my own money and it will most likely be a one time purchase. My budget is only $200.00. I only want the single rotor design (whatever that is called). It needs to be durable and perhaps fast. Also, I would like it to be able to go backwards, forwards, side to side, up, down, hover, and turn left and right (for some reason I think that's called 6 channel). If you could also help me with my terminology, That'd be great. Thanks!
What I meant by single rotor design is I don't like coaxial design. Thank you.



Answer
Blade MCX. Easy to fly, upgrade, and well within your budget.

I want an rc helicopter and i want a good one for under $200?




ndadvc


i have flown before but i want everyones opinion on what i should get....preferably a 6 channel


Answer
Try kyosho.They make helicopters,cars,boats,mini monster trucks,planes.Only thing to remember is to start out slow.get a basic copter first and when ur used to it,u can start modifying it.there are so many things you can do with a copter and some of them are expensive.
also,keep in mind the price.even though the price might be cheap,the mantainence costs could be very high

Good luck.

i need to know a good rc helicopter to buy?




Tyler C


i have some experience in flying rc helicopters, and i want to move a step up to a good 3d rc helicopter ( one that can do loops and rolls ) please post the link to a site if you find a good one..........any help is appreciated


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!

Which Micro Collective Pitch RC Helicopter is better?




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

My new Syma S.026 mini Chinook RC helicopter spins out of control on takeoff. please help?




CGI03


They won't take it back they claim that i broke it. I did crash a few times but not from height or to fast because i cant fly it so i cant really crash it


Answer
Where did you buy it? If you bought it online, then you can't really do much but have it as a paper weight. If you bought it at a store, then you could pull what they pulled on you and purchase another helicopter and put the broken one back in the new box and say your child doesn't want it.

As for chinooks, the mechanism used for it to fly is very advanced. There is no guarantee these are going to be 100% perfect for every helicopter especially if it isn't an expensive hobby helicopter. The company "Syma" is not a company that you would want to depend on. Read the manual and follow the directions. That is all I could say.
