Big RC Helicopter A Quick Guide For Beginners
People have different hobbies, and you might just be one of those who love to tinker with machines, such as remote control helicopters. A lot of people assume that remote control helicopters are toys designed for kids - such as remote control cars. However, you can have fun with them too, especially if it's a big one. If you're new to the flying business though, it's important to consider several things so that you'll learn to fully enjoy and have fun with this hobby.
Big RC Helicopter
Find Someone Who KnowsFlying a big RC helicopter requires a certain degree of skill, and while you can learn to fly your chopper using an online simulator, flying your the device in real life is something that can actually be more difficult. Finding someone who already knows what to do is the best way to really learn - without the risk of damaging your new helicopter. Asking or hiring an instructor to teach you provides you with one on one mentoring, which will allow you to learn and practice, while having someone more experienced in control.Choosing Your HelicopterStart with basic or easy-to-use models. Sure, you might find a fancy big remote control helicopter, but if you're just learning to use it, it's a better idea to stick with something easier to use and less complex.
When you've mastered the art of flying and controlling the helicopter, you can then move on and buy your coveted helicopter of choice that's better in aerobic performance or power.Controlling the HelicopterBasic big RC helicopter devices are quite easy to control than expensive models. This means that with basic models, controls are usually kept at a minimum - such as moving up and down or left and right. This may not give you the best aerobic performance you want, but it's a great start to mastering the controls, before you finally move on to something more complex such as spinning and other tricks.Getting Your Big RC HelicopterThere are various ways to purchase these kind of device.
There are local sources that sell pre-built or second hand RCs, and there are online sources that sell DIY RC helicopters and pre-made ones. Buying online is a good option because it provides you with a lot of options in choosing helicopters.
Don't forget to always check the dimensions before ordering. A lot of people just read the description or the title name of the helicopter, only to be disappointed that what they get is actually a mini to their standards. If you're buying these as a gift, always read the fine print and not rely on the photos alone, as they may be misleading.
The prices of the helicopter also greatly vary. Depending on the brand, make and power and control options, you can shell out as low as $80 to as big as $1000 for a bigger one, so don't forget to check out a variety of sellers, too before finally deciding on a specific option.

Esky Lama V4 Review
The Esky Lama V4 is an inexpensive indoor electric helicopter. For less than $100 USD online, you get a completely assembled and ready-to-fly helicopter, four channel transmitter, LiPo battery, charger, and a spare set of blades. The Lama does not come with training gear or an instructional video like similar models from Tower Hobbies and Horizon Hobbies, but it only costs half as much.
The first thing you'll notice is the two main 13" rotors, each of which has its own 180-sized motor. This coaxial design cancels out the torque of the blades without the need for a tail rotor. This supposedly makes the helicopter more stable and easier to fly for beginners. Turning the nose left and right (i. e. yaw) is accomplished by changing the relative speeds of the top and bottom rotors. While this works quite well, there is a drawback in that turning changes your total downward thrust, so moving the rudder stick can change your altitude. Forward/backward motion as well as left/right roll are determined by two servos which tilt the swashplate.
The battery, charger, and A/C adaptor. The stock battery is a 7.4V, 800 mah LiPo pack which is good for about 10 minutes of flight. It takes about an hour to charge with the supplied charger/balancer. I was happy to see that this two cell pack has a balancing connector for charging, rather than using the main discharge lead and potentially leaving the cells uneven.
Flying for the first time was straight forward. There's no assembly involved at all - just charge the battery. It wasn't clear whether the factory had trimmed the controls, so I set them all to neutral and turned on the transmitter. After plugging in the battery, the gyroscope took a few seconds to stabilize, and then lit up solid green. It's important to bring the throttle up slowly to avoid stripping the gears. I was happy to see the Lama come up off the floor easily and seem to be pretty stable.
Rather than taking a chance, I took note of which way it was drifting, then landed and adjusted the trims. After a few tries, I was able to get it pretty well dialed in, with the exception of yaw. I found that even with the rudder trimmed fully to the right, the heli would still turn slowly to the left and needed constant correction. An open basement with seven foot ceilings was enough space to learn how to fly, but more height would have been better. Spending a few hours on a simulator before the first flight also helped a lot in terms of orientation and anticipating what the controls would do.
Flying the Lama V4 is really addictive. It's a very easy helicopter to learn on, and it's remarkably tough. It's endured more crashes than I can count, and the only things that have broken are the rotor blades and one side of the landing gear. The flybar has a resilient design which causes it to pop out undamaged in a crash, which is a great feature. It's important when reattaching it to make sure that the upper blades pivot freely, which largely determines how stably the heli will hover.
Performance wise, the Lama V4 is not a rocket ship. It will move forward at a brisk walking pace, and will happily move in any direction you command it. It is definitely sluggish compared to a traditional tail-rotor, non-coaxial helicopter. The reason is that the upper blades have no cyclic control, and so are always working to pull the helicopter back to a static position. This is fantastic for a learning flyer. However, sudden changes of direction are prone to causing ‘blade clash’, where the tilting lower blades come into contact with the static upper blades. I’ve only had this happen once, when hauling hard back on the cyclic while the heli was at close to maximum forward speed. If your idea of fun is flying circuits of your lounge, but not high-speed aerobatics in a gymnasium, then the Lama is perfect.
The Lama will not fly outdoors, except on the most incredibly calm days. Considering the forward speed is so low, it can barely hold position with full forward cyclic in even the lightest breeze.

We fly a new SYMA S107, that is a okay hen nevertheless mainly made of metal (slim linen aluminium) which is negative and positive. Metal, even aluminium, is robust but large. My pal Skillet flies the actual V268 and, in my opinion, your V268 is the greatest plane. Though it can be a bit smaller compared to S107 throughout all round length along with rotor period, that demonstrates better airline flight features, largely much better rise fee as well as more time trip period.
We chalk this up on the lighter weight as a result of all plastic-type development and greater principal items enabling greater torque At reduce Revoltions per minute. We've got both gone down our wild birds quite a few occasions as well as my own getting items is actually chance while his can be heading powerful. Their canopy panels has jumped away from inside failures, nevertheless somewhat nuts glue took care of in which. For the investment, this is actually the best Several route heli-copter I've come across.
We've Several planes, coming from 19.98 for you to 60$ versions and also this helicopter is the BEST to fly along with management inside.

Have a good trip! mini rc heli
We personal several helis and perhaps they are all exciting in order to soar in different ways. Other evaluators have written superb books, and that i is not going to waste your time and energy by repeating what they've said. I believe the Syma planes are generally better. My personal main gripe using this heli is the fact that they have put extremely showy, incredibly sporting, multicolored Light emitting diodes across the pursue as well as in your nostril. Listed here are my own findings about this chopper:
Benefits
A single) Great price to the price
Only two) Enjoyable and steady for you to fly
Several) The particular blades accelerator control (regulates up/down) just isn't early spring crammed
4) Can charge from controller or perhaps the Hardware getting cable television which is included
Five) Resilient
Negatives
1) Cheap and unattractive looking -- I would not such as the nuts Light emitting diodes or the paint job
Two) More noisy compared to the Syma 108 and 109Three) Inexpensive feeling controlled
Some) Cut manage on significantly right
