  • @taoistflyer , I like the review. I have just bought this heli myself and i really like it, but is there anyway i can bind this heli with my esky honeybee v2 transmitter? I would really appreciate an answer :)

  • Open the tx and switch the pots around.

  • @n6ugyham That was the first thing I tried, but this transmitter didn't allow it.

  • would u recommend the air hogs heli cage

  • @RYANROCS2616 I haven't tried it but people say the cage works about half the time.

  • And if you're suffering from technology fatigue you can lie down at 07:18 and read Tao Te Ching.

  • what is accel button for on the side??????

  • @terpfan67 On some versions it is for trim and on others it's for a quick burst of forward flight, on other versions it doesn't do anything

  • Hate to break it to you but that is not mode 1, that is mode 4, mode 1 has throttle on the right stick not the left. And plus US people do fly mode 1, its not unique to the places you mentioned.

  • hey what happens when there is no charge?and why is there a blinking in my remote control?

    Please reply.

  • hey can u make a video on how to fly the second smallest rc helicopter with the to tink in the air cant remember the name

  • is it better than syma s107?

  • @SakuraSolidMarker A little bit

  • I just received mine. I charged it with the usb into my pc. After only a few minutes the usb indicator already turned off. I tried to swittch on the heli but nothing. No flashing lights, nothing. So either it wasn't charged yet or it is broken I guess... Just my luck... I just plugged it back into the pc and then again after a minute or so the USB light turns off, indicating it it done charging and again nothing happens when i switch the helicopter on. Any suggestions anyone?

  • @knarghel Usually even without charging the helicopter the lights will turn on when you turn on the helicopter, these batteries should never be allowed to run all the way down, if they do run all the way down it damages them. If their is no power going through it then their may be a problem with the battery the battery may be dead or have a bad connection, Did you try charging with the transmitter.

  • Have you seen the new Force Flyers shown at the NY Toy Expo last weekend? RC is a glove.

  • @tennisnutaz I just saw my first video of one, it looks intersecting, I'd love to try it out. it looks like the prototype uses one of these avatar helicopters.

  • I have to agree with you there, modes get very confusing. In Europe we fly mode 2 mainly now, but still I know alot of people that fly mode 1 still(all over 60 years old). But if you get into bigger helicopters or planes, then you get your own transmitters and you are able to swap modes on some!

  • shut up and fly

  • Nice control.. i bought someting simller but a little bigger and i keep smashing it on the walls... :S

  • I'm pretty sure that this transmitter is capable of changing modes. The one for my 4-channel Drift King is. With the control off, turn power on heli. Then press and hold both buttons in at the top while turning on control. While still holding buttons in, try throttle to "bind" control to heli. Do this while standing appx 5' from heli. Hope it works because this is to be the next heli added to my "fleet"!

  • @wademech Thanks for the advice, I'll charge it up and give it a try and see if it works.

  • i just bought the same helicopter but i am having trouble getting mine to work. i have put the 6 AA in the controler and out of the box i turned the helicopter on the lights were flashing. i cant get it to work. please help!

  • @666AHEAD666 does the controller light up, I have had bad controllers before and had to return the heli to the store.

  • Oh sorry i am wrong, my appologise!

  • dude you rock on that thing im gonna get one

  • my main rotar wont spin.anyone know how to fix?

    

  • @nickychowx Check the cogs from the motor drive pin haven't been dislodged, that's why mine stopped.

  • my one is blue and i got it for $50 and mine is mode 2 its easer to fly but i cracht at my first flyt but its ok its a verry good helicopter for the size

  • nc speech

    

  • hey can you make a video showing how to fly a 3 channel heli? plzz thnaks

    

  • who did you buy this off on ebay ?? how do you know if its real or fake ??

  • мартышка в кепке!!!

  • looks like a Syma S107 with some crap bolted to the side of it :/

  • Sweet little heli! Thanks for the info on mode 1 and mode 2, I didn't know that. Also that was a sweet landing in the bookcase, I could tell you thought so too with that satisfied smile on your face!

  • Do you always wear that hat?

  • @taoistflyer I can't my bunions are acting up!

  • I have the same

  • It's amongst the best cheap indoor helis - not true 4ch - but it does side-fly.

    They are about $24 out of China now.

  • People who say that this heli is bad, it's not, you just have to be careful with it

  • I like that sand-timer thing.

  • i bought one of these a few weeks ago but its not working right now. the little switch thing behind the on/off switch broke off and i dont know how i can fix it. any tips?

  • @TheRedStar31 that happen on my airhogs sharp shooter, I had to use a needle to turn it on and off, it was a pain but it worked.

  • @taoistflyer i dont mean the actual on/off switch. im talking about the thing just behind it. i dont know what its called, mabey its a lever of some sort. its not mentioned anywhere

  • @TheRedStar31 it doesn't sound familiar 

  • @taoistflyer to be more specific your pinky finger is toughing it at the 0;33 mark in your 'how to fix your RC helicopter" video

  • @TheRedStar31 remove the on off switch and join the wires, as soon as u plug in the battery the power is on... problem solved

  • @TheRedStar31 that is the reciver for the controller

  • @treedome36 could you tell me the easyest way to fix it?

  • @TheRedStar31 im sorry i honestly dont know how. Try bringing it back to the shop.

  • @TheRedStar31 did you find a way to fix this? I'm having the same problem. The thing broke off instantly. I can't get it to work. The lights flash and all, but it seems it can't make a connection with the controller.

  • @knarghel no i tried to glue it back on but i still cant get it to work

  • you are so ugly :S

  • @RamelaoGosta Everyone, observe the troll in it's natural habitat. Note the very small reproductive organs on this specimen. Most likely the result of incest among the small pack of these creatures.

  • @MrCumstein Be careful, they are easily startled and will quickly asexually reproduce themselves into their own supporters.

  • my teacher has this helicopter, and i was allowed to fly it for one time, and my friend also. i have flying experiance, but my friend totally no experiance! we could both fly this helicopter, the best i know!!!

  • Its very quite

  • I'm amazed that the little heli doesn't seem to be affected by crosswinds bouncing off the walls. Great review. Thanks!

  • Comment removed

  • is the any websites you can hook me up on but the helicopters need to have gyro

  • @cjd2433 lightake.com

  • @cjd2433 lite hawk is good for starters and training

  • I have this same copter,It is not very good Quality,It kept loosing gears and finally lost a counterweight off of the roter,JUNK AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED!!!

  • @thomasshelton where did you buy yours from.

  • where do you work

    

  • get back to work

  • Need to adjust your trim, to the right.... :)

  • Compre uno de estos.. y en un dia lo descompuse... ;'(

  • you speak so boringly

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • i was thinking of buying one of these helicopters are thy easy broke iam sick buy a helicopter that brakes after 1-2 crashs is it a good wee helicopter e mail me please on martin-1888@hotmail.com

  • when you fly this helicopter, does it really produce the music from a speaker or did you just edit the video and add it in?

  • @OutdoorAdventures13 LOL no but I'm surprised no one has dun that yet.

  • you got it off ebay and its real

  • i hav this in blue i got it for $75

  • I like the control scheme of this one because the rolling right and left waste so much battery with the extra motors and I just choose not to use it and with in on the throttle side it works out great.

  • he looks like a 70s pimp

  • @will2223006 I should have worn my fish tank platform shoos.

  • @will2223006 HAHAHAHAHAHA

  • I just got a Protocol Skyline (Brand) midsize R/C helicopter and it flies well but was 80 freakin' dollars including tax. Should i just buy this one? really all I need to know is if protocol is a shitty brand or not. I got it at future shop and i'll bet if I crash it and screw it up they won't take it back... Should I return it before I crash it before im $80 in the hole?

  • @Glichster13 I think they over charged you, they sell online for 20 bucks, you can get a good 4 channel heli for 80 bucks.

  • @Glichster13 From my own experience with it ,Protocol is not a good brand.You could also read the reviews others have written about it.I recommend Syma S032.Or Double Horse.They're both around 20-60$.Most of them are fairly large too=D.Hope this helped.

  • @frozenstringS1 thanks very much, but my mom is a ^%&$% so I can't buy online. but still thanks!

  • I'm new to RC helos, and I got this model for Xmas but ended up returning it for a larger model because I couldn't get it to hover. I find the new model (more than twice as big) handles exactly the same. Is it always a constant battle to get them to hover in the air, on a 'holding pattern' as you say?

  • Nevermind, it flys forwards and backwards much better now. It turns out the tail rotor was a bit broken, so I replaced it and now it's much better. But still, are the two side propellers (in the wing-things) supposed to rotate, or are they for looks? If they're supposed to rotate, how could I fix it? Thanks in advance!

  • I got this helicopter, and it worked great... for the first flight. Now, the side propellers (on each wing-thing) won't rotate. I haven't crashed it badly at all, but all of a sudden it will barely move forward. All of the other directions (up, down, left, right, clockwise and counter-clockwise) work great, though. Any suggestions on how to fix it, or what's wrong with it? PLEASE REPLY!

  • @taoistflyer, I Have this exact Helicopter, ive never owned one before, I crashed it abit and it worked fine, but this morning, it stopped working, i turn it on and the blades spin for about 10 seconds or less, then stop and it may get 3 ft off the ground, then stop, please help if you can

  • @naturalisgreat I had the same problem and I realized the motor shaft drive cog was missing. By sheer luck found it on the carpet. Unscrewed the underneath of the heli and got it back in place again. Flew it again and it took a slight Knock and the cog came dislodged again, rotor stopped. Unscrew the underneath see if the cogs ( they're very small, about 4mm) are still there. should be one for top rotor and one for the bottom. If this is not the problem than I don't know. Good luck

  • i really want one.. can i please have that one in the video .. please! :) thank you... i am from south africa... and they dont sell them here.. :(((((((((((

  • @Ipwnedyoumadbro it may need to be returned.

  • i was thinking of geting one do u recomened it i have only had 2 helicoptersso iam not the best pilot but i have at mode 1 all my life i live in uk r they easy broke tb tb tb tb

  • @martin9065 You may want to find something like a blade MXC better flight time and controls.

  • I need some help, the rotor closest to the body doesn't work. Anybody got any ideas on whats wrong?

  • @rarosa787 the motor may be bad or the wires may be disconnected.

  • I requested a helicopter from the link in the description and now it is a month waiting

  • @supercane65 you may need to contact them, shipping usually takes 2 or 3 weeks.

  • could you tell me the weight of the helicopter because im from ecuador and i buy by ebay and there does not have the weight thanks

  • Me and my friend have made a video on this, check it out at, SkysurferDublin2011 and my friends channel, Jaza100, love this heli!

  • I just got mine today, don't quite know what the problem is but it is fully charged and yet the lights on the copter won't turn on and it won't respond to the controller. Doesn't seem like there is any interference with the signal, i tried it on all frequencies. It feels like the problem may be the switch, it doesn't feel like i'm actually affecting any circuit when i push it, merely feels like i'm bending soft plastic or metal. Any ideas?

  • @enragedcrow you're probably not actually turning the chopper on. the on switch is a little clear switch directly below the charging outlet. not the black plastic thing. thats what i thought it was too. do you have any idea how to make the red led light come on the transmitter or how to change the frequency of the chopper?

  • @3kickitx OH, that really small square piece, yeah, that turns it on. By the red light on the transmitter do you mean the small LED signifying power or do you mean the ones on the front? I got the power light on and obviously know how to change the frequency on the transmitter, but don't know how to change the copter's frequency, is there another microscopic switch?

  • @enragedcrow the one at the top thats supposed to be like a steady light? cause i have the power one on and the chopper on but thats as far as i got. i think the frequency for the chopper is the thing you were talking about earlier....that black thing. but i've had no luck matching them up. :( we emailed the company so hopefully they can help..

  • min tail dosent work =(

  • Okay so i got the avatar drone...the transmitter LED light doesn't ever turn on. its supposedly fully charged and the helicopter is on....but i have NO CLUE what the frequency setting of the chopper is or how to change it. that could be the problem. PLEASE HELP

  • @3kickitx turn the helicopter on first, then turn on the transmitter, when the transmitter is turned on it automatically calibrates the helicopter to the frequency that you have selected on the transmitter.

  • is that a good one for a bigginner to start with even if i don't know anything about rc helicopters? an is it that hard to fly? and what its flight time?

  • @hakim0744 It's decent for beginners but a traditional heli like the blade MCX is much better. it's pretty easy to fly, flight time is about 5 minutes because it's so heavy.

  • @taoistflyer thank you for replaying and just an other question if you have the time to reply can you please tell me the flight time for most micro-helicopters ?? and how much time do they need to charge?

  • @hakim0744 Most helis fly for about 5-10 minutes and charge for about 20-60 minutes

    gas helicopters can fly for much much longer. 8 min is about average on most electric helis.

  • My helicopter is the same:D

  • @ALEXX1X2X3 lol

  • G'day,

    My son got a 4 - Channel R/C Infrared Controlled Helicopter for Xmas, it looks identical to the one in your clip. It didn't come with instructions, what we don't understand is once it's turned on and the controller is on we don't know how to get it to go, it seems that we stand there looking at it for ages and all of a sudden it goes up which we then can controll......But we don't know how we are getting the chopper to start???? Please help an Aussie beginner!

  • @thetarpman Make sure you aren't trying to fly it outside because the infra red signal will be blocked by the sun or bright lights. on this helicopter the left stick controls throttle and left right motion and the right stick controls spin and forward reverse.

  • Do you own any larger heli's?

  • @ktydd a few

  • its really a problem, it doesn't lift off, don't know why yet, the problem is that i can't unmount it

  • Hey,i bought this helicopter but the last blade is sometimes spinning and sometimes not i dont know what i have to do that it spins.You have some ideas?

  • @MrDivad006 As you saw, it only spins to alter the pitch of the helicopter, nose down or up which causes the copter to fly forward or back, likewise the side blades alters it pitch, either one side down or the other. With just the main rotors spinning, imagine a column of air supporting the helicopter, it will stay in one place. To get it to move in a particular directing you need to tilt it in that direction tilting the air coloumn pushing it in that direction. They operate when needed

  • i would like to buy one but can u sell in kiddy palace thx and please change to mode 2

  • too bad there aint any weapons on it... that would've been awesome...

    how is the signals range usually on such choppers?

  • you never seem happy...

  • Comment removed

  • i find this easy to masturbate to..

  • guys i really need some help i have the exact same model but the top blade doent spin could someone tell me why is this happening i have to say that i just bought it and that it has been charged for over an hour!

  • @berdgar charge time though usb is quicker, but still about an hour.

    if one of the rotors doesn't spin it may be unplugged or un soldered.

  • i live in canada and some of are cantrolntrols are the same

  • @berdgar what you have to do is take off the plastic cockput and one of the metal side panels covering the rotor cog wheels. You will see two large, horizontally placed cog wheels one above the other the top one controls the spin of the top rotor, you will notice that a smaller cog wheel coming straight from the electric motor is not aligned with the top large cog. Just use a screwdriver to re-aligne it and that's it!

  • did I write "cockput"??? Well - you know what I meant...

  • @cerbera1973 that was the problem but the smaller cog it is too loose each time i try to fly it it comes off :/ do u have any idea what i could do?

  • Hi, i got one of does, but it doesn't lift off.

    it says to push the gearshift lever upward, do u know how to do that?

  • @ALEXX1X2X3 Up = push stick away from you, down = pull stick towards you

  • taoistflyer sorry thats not the problem i did not explain very well it has the toilet bowl effect what is the problem.

  • dude do you work at a spa?

  • can you take the side parts off pls rply 

  • you sound like joel olsteen

  • @Shaung1231 first time I ever heard that. I am from Texas so that's probably part of it.

  • hows mode kiss my ass!

  • FAST ADVISE: in Italy there is a great success of the new GW Xieda 9958. It is relly cheap but all the users say that it is a great microHeli.

    Let's try it if you can...it cost about 25€ but is compared to the E-flite microHeli

  • Oh yeah, thanks for sharing your time and making this video for us. (Tom)

  • I bought 2 of these on amazon and when they arrived they were F103 types. Not the Z008 so be sure you check the remote before you buy one if you want this type. I sent mine back and reordered the Z008 model from another seller. Just a word of caution.

  • how loud L O L

  • I stabilized my first piccoz's counterclockwise-rotation with a little paper from the body to the tail,along the whole tail boom to opposite the movement by the air friction. Can it block this little counterclockwise rotation?

  • @biolanpi1 you can and that is a very clever idea.

  • during the hover it goes to the left...do you trimmed it?

    i don't like the auto-turning during the hover.

  • @biolanpi1 you may need to put a little bit of weight on the right side.

  • Only 22.29 from Banggood.com.

  • hahaha when he hit the chair i was like "oh no its all over!" but then it just bounced off. Good video

  • subbed mate, you have some good videos

  • @TheTubeTrooper Thanks for watching

  • excuse me taoistflyer but i bought thins and its unbalanced it does not spin around but i goes in circles please reply i spent good money on this!

  • @MrStupidjoker you may just need to set the trim on the transmitter until it stops spinning but one of the tiny gears on one of the motors may have a crack in it. watch my video how to repair your rc helicopter to see how to replace the gear, you may not be able to see the crack but it may be their causing the rotor to stick when it turns.

  • What is the recharge time???

  • @MisterTrevi when I hook up to the usb it takes about 10 to 20 min,s depens on how dead it is but my 2 charge very fast I think.

  • Mine doesn't respond. To controls!

  • the controls are the same as battlefield 3 except the throttle is the triggers on game consoles. sounds like something to check out.

  • I saw this video about a month ago and jumped on ebay and order two of them I got them for about $20.00 each and I just got one in today and talk about fun I been flying it all day crashed it a ton of times and it's still flying great Lol for 20 bucks you cant have this much fun!! Only down side is it took for ever to get it!! PS hey guys he makes flying it look ez but the man's got skills!!

  • @scottgsxr1000 nice deal!

  • @scottgsxr1000 Thanks.

  • @taoistflyer Hey let me ask you I also have a t-rex 450, but I am looking for a good low cost indoor outdoor 4ch Helicopter to play with around the house the trex is just to much. what do you think what comes to mind? Thanks.

  • @scottgsxr1000 The E-flight blade MSR is what you want. if you can fly a t rex then you have the skills to really enjoy it and it will be your new best indoor friend. I love mine.

  • @scottgsxr1000 this is only20 dollars in ebay ? why is it cost much if you buy it on wallmart in asia cost as much as 50 to 70 bucks ?
