Double Horse 9100

[Bradair1]

Hi mYfLASK,,, great video mate. I also have a DH 9100 but mine is now 4ch, much better. The dh 9100 is a great heli and i enjoyed this video.

Many thanks

[HappyLolotte]

Hey, does someone know the name of the song? ^^' Thx.

[lamborghini1895]

how big is the copter, can it fit cameras on it?

[mYfLASK]

@lamborghini1895 Yes you could fit a keychain cam on this helicopter.

[LOVE2Flute]

I just bought one. I'm looking forward to flying her. Looks like fun!

[mYfLASK]

@LOVE2Flute I would say challenging the Blade MCPX are Fun good luck with your DH-9100.

[carr869]

I have the 9100, haven't beenable to fly it much to get it trimmed right. It doesn't like the wind. Even a light wind. You need a VERY calm day but I like and will wait for that day.

[kenjira]

cual es el nombre de esta cancion

[perryinjax]

Can the 9100 do acrobatics? Like loops and rolls?

Please advise, Over...

[mYfLASK]

@perryinjax Possibly but not intentionally as it rotates out of control, realistically no 3ch helicopter can perform 3D manoeuvres, sorry :)

[perryinjax]

@mYfLASK I guess because it is missing collective pitch on the rotors? How does that make a heli more manuverable for acrobatics? (if it can be explained in simple terms in this setting..b.c. the google results get kind of complex for the layman)

[mYfLASK]

@perryinjax In layman terms, blade pitch is the ability for the blade to travel through a negative and positive position while maintaining a constant head speed, the DH-9100 has one servo to tilt the blade in a forward direction.

[wallaguest1]

is a 3 or 4 ch ? lokks a 4ch to me

[mYfLASK]

@wallaguest1 I think the swashplate may be throwing you,this DH-9100 is the first 3ch single blade helicopter,

[2012SpecialForces]

Oh my God!!! perfect pilot skill!! and perfect Heli!!! REALLY GOOD JOB MY FRIEND!

[mYfLASK]

@2012SpecialForces Thank you for your comments, I would love to take credit for my flying skills, but I was only re-correcting this helicopter position from the way it decided to fly at that particular time.

[DauntlessEagle1]

God this is so much better than the 9101

[youngkid1021]

Can i replace the canopie ?

and what canopie size would i be able to get ?

[mYfLASK]

@youngkid1021 Yes you can replace the canopy if you don’t want to get the original, you can go for a 200 size, the 250 size will fit, and you may have to re-drill the fixing holes.

[leefuji]

@mYfLASK how much fly time you get on a single charge ? is this a 3 channel heli ?

[mYfLASK]

@leefuji About seven minutes with the 7.4v Li-poly Battery, if you can keep it in the air for that time, as this 3ch helicopter tends to be a little unpredictable.

[leefuji]

@mYfLASK cool, unpredictable ? Looks you have pretty good control over it, I've seen other videos of the 9100 which are decent as well.

[ThePatjofski]

Hi. Got my dh 9100 for just 2 days. I haven't crashed it yet but my servo is making a weird sound when i push the controller stick backwards or forwards. Does anyone else has this problem or is it normal? Thanks in advance...

[callofdutyfreak39]

@ThePatjofski i dont have one but impretty sure its normal plus i might get one im new to helicopters-outdoor so is tghis a good heli for me

[mYfLASK]

@callofdutyfreak39 These are very nice looking helicopters also at an attractive price they are not easy to fly and would not recommended this for a beginner sorry. ThePatjofski, not crashed yet I am impressed, I would love to see your video. your servo arm may need altering as its sounds like it is bottoming out.

[callofdutyfreak39]

@mYfLASK so i shouldnt get it then which one cause im looking for an outdoor to 50-100$

[mYfLASK]

@callofdutyfreak39 I am not saying you shouldn’t get one, but think you will find a coaxial easy to fly, or you could consider building your own 250 size helicopter but it’s your choice at the end of the day.

[callofdutyfreak39]

@mYfLASK how much is it cause i cant get it for too much cxause its not for my birthday or christmas its just like that so is it 50_100

[callofdutyfreak39]

is it outdoor

[callofdutyfreak39]

@mYfLASK is it really hard to fly or will i manage since i am great with indoor helicopters

[callofdutyfreak39]

@mYfLASK but isnt this a coaxial

[mYfLASK]

@callofdutyfreak39 No a coaxial has two sets of blades, this is a single blade 3ch helicopter

[callofdutyfreak39]

@mYfLASK ok but i already know what im getting im getting a 9104 which is single bladed but i still want it because it looks great and am very fond of it and it will be very hard to pull me out of it

[callofdutyfreak39]

@mYfLASK what does double horse mean

[callofdutyfreak39]

@mYfLASK SO SHOULD I GET THE 9101 soz bout capitals

[mYfLASK]

@callofdutyfreak39 Should you get the DH9100 I would suggest reading all my comment on this page then make your own mind up good luck. :)

[callofdutyfreak39]

@mYfLASK can you just tell me

[mrkodir]

thats nice...

Hello again, my fLASK - I've posted another video called "when good times go bad part 2" ; )

Please watch if you'd like!

[NFaceFan]

Hi I HAVE A DH 9100 AND I'M TRYING TO TRIM IT BUT NOTHING WORKS I REALLY NEED HELP IF YOU CAN HELP ME E-MAIL ME PLEASE ILL SUBSCRIBE I JUST NEED SO MUCH HELP SOMETIMES I GET IT IN THE AIR BUT IT WONT TURN LEFT OR GO FORWARD PLEASE HELP ME THANK YOU :) I HAVE SUBSCRIBED

[helimadlee]

hi myflask and nice video, ive had my 9100 for a few months now and it is a little too light for flying against wind, to help forward flight try removing the decorative bars on the tail boom. i found a difference without them, also after many flights i noticed the swash plate was coming apart and just needed pressing back together maybe this is something other flyers so look out for on the 9100.

[mYfLASK]

Hi helimadlee thank you for these tips, but unfortunately I no longer have my DH9100, as I have moved up the ladder to a 450 size, but I am sure this will help other 9100 users.

[olsmokey]

All Double Horse helis are Mode 4. This makes it very easy to jump between models.

When I was setting up my Walkera UFLY I had to set it to Mode 4 to make it work the same.

[4GMAN88]

no breeze, test it indoor! direktly on the start its pitch to the left... google says its a typical dh9100 problem. i fix it with a litle mod

[4GMAN88]

hi,

why y dh9100 pitches to the left? the adjustment on the controller dont fix it...

[mYfLASK]

@4GMAN88 Single servo pitches blades forward and backward, Left movement was due to slight breeze as these are very light and hard to control in zero wind.

[jefferyjay01]

can anyone tell me what the tx mode for this heli is?

[mYfLASK]

@jefferyjay01 If you are talking about the receiver there are two 27mHz and 40mHz that comes with a three channel transmitter to match.

[jefferyjay01]

@mYfLASK Thanks but what I meant is the mode of the transmitter. I assume it is 1 or 2. Basically, which stick do you turn left and right with?

[mYfLASK]

@jefferyjay01 Oppps sorry its mod 2 throttle on the left, you turn left or right with the right stick.

[jefferyjay01]

@mYfLASK I was mistaken, most 3 channel (at least here in the US) are mode 2 or 4, not 1 or 2. The way you described this heli (throttle left stick and turning right stick) I think it's actually mode 4. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but either way thanks for the input.

[mYfLASK]

@jefferyjay01 You could say it was mode 4, without the Ailerons on the left stick or Elevator and the right. I refried this to Mode 2 only to indicate the throttle was on the Left.

[jefferyjay01]

@mYfLASK Well whatever the mode, you answered my question. Thanks for the info.

[soulkiss31]

Hello myflask - I've removed the training wheels and have graduated from the garage to the great outdoors. I've posted a video of me flying my 9100 after some major repairs (replaced canopy and soldered on a new system board after a bad crash). I also have some other videos of an outdoor flight with my 9101 and some garage flights with my 9053. Check them out if you'd like.

Thanks!

[fasolmen]

lol

boomerang powered helicopter

:3

[MisterUnconcerned]

After almost 20 years out of the R/C hobby (Associated, Losi trucks), I've found a new love last few weeks. It started with a cheap Walgreens heli, then a Syma S107G, Alloy Shark, and this is next on the list. Once I get used to the faster flight of a 9100 it's on to a 6 channel.

[mYfLASK]

@MisterUnconcerned, Welcome back to the world of helicopters and good luck on your progress journey.

[503TD]

@MisterUnconcerned same boat : ) and just got my 9100 couldnt take it out today cause its sprinkiling i dont know if there water proof tryed to fly it inside but way to powerful and fast for me to try my first flight with a such a beast indoors lol

[mYfLASK]

@503TD I don’t think the rain is ever going to stop Lol. Would not advise flying in the rain, but there is an alternative to flying indoors, tie pieces of string to the four corners of the skids, tethered down with weights to practice your hovering.

[tylerdopson]

i just bought a heli can you make a video with tips how to fly the syma s107 if you can thank you

[spwb2k]

the wide open countryside scene is kewl too.

[BaDlYbRUiZeD]

men... now i want one...

[soulkiss31]

Myflask - I have a series of questions regarding the heli. Do you mind if I send them to your personal inbox?

[mYfLASK]

Hi soulkiss31, not at all I am always willing to help in anyway I can, look forward to your question.

[teamkvs]

what is the size of the motor of this thing i would like to upgrade mine to get faster forward flight.

[luminouspc]

Hi friend, I have just bought this Heli.... Can you Recommended a Training video Link for me.. Your doing nice flying..

[luminouspc]

Hi friend, I have just bought this Heli.... Can you Recommended a Training video Link for me.. Your doing nice flying..

[mYfLASK]

Hi luminouspc thank you for the complement, to be honest these are not the best to learn on, they look great fly very fast, but poor gyro from keeping it stable, it’s not a training video you need, it a large field, and hope for the best.

[soulkiss31]

Nice flying! I should be getting my dh 9100 in 3 days.

[mYfLASK]

Hey thanks soulkiss31, these are not easy to control due to the gyro, but on the plus side they look stunning and are very fast, good luck with yours.

[ozzy065]

@mYfLASK is this a good heli for beginners

[mYfLASK]

@ozzy065 NO please see other comments for reasons why.

[phiskah1]

Looks like you were flying in a decent amount of wind there. Can't wait for summer time & "no wind" conditions to fly mine outside, right now it's just too windy, I want to be in control, & not have the wind move me backwards as shown in your flight.

[mYfLASK]

Hi phiskah1, there was a little wind, but think TBA effect contributed to the backward movement, as the swash plate was perfectly level, try hovering indoors with no wind you will see wait I mean, don’t get me wrong this is a fantastic helicopter with just a few teething problems.

[semidios1968]

Nice, and fantastic weather.

What did you do for trimming the heli? Mine hovers nice as well, but when it's a little bit windy it drifts up and away like a paper glider...

[mYfLASK]

Thanks semidios1968,  yes very lucky with the weather, trimming basically hand launch and grab, then adjust the trimming until I got a decent fly, if that makes sense. Your description of a paper plane is not that far off as you don’t fly these you re-correct the drift, and appears like your flying. LOL.

[Danpstew1]

Thanks for sharing !! I really enjoy my DH 9100 !!
