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.

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

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!

How do you keep a stable flight?

Mike

I have a little Dyna Blade RC mini helicopter. I understand how trimming works and the controls but am wondering if there any tips that I can use to keep the helicopter stable. It seems to want to wander all over the place even when i'm trying to just hover and keep the tail in one place. Any suggestions?

Answer
well... not for that helicopter. I looked it up, and it seems to have only 2 channels? Is that correct? Coaxial helicopter? well... 2 or 3 channels, im positive its an coaxial helicopter. Tell me if im wrong, and i'll give you the proper information.

So you can't do much to stablise the helicopter. You could try adding an equal amount of tape on the tip of the helicopter blades. It helps stabilise the propellers, thus stabilising flight. But don't add too much... It could cause the helicopter to use more power and give you less flight times.

Another thing to do, is fly in a bigger space. If you are in a space room, the reflective wind will hit your helicopter, creating the helicopter to move in the direction of the wind.

Thats pretty much all I could tell you to do with the helicopter you have.

If the helicopter is new, and is not a 3 channel helicopter, I would suggest returning it and getting the Air Hogs Reflex. I had that helicopter, and it is amazing.
