Top Five RC Toy gift ideas By RC 101

[DirtyBlade602]

wanna grow the fuck up?

[ptuccillo18]

how come he doesnt have the pocket copter on it

[taoistflyer]

@ptuccillo18 this was before the pocket copter existed.

[Minecraftpizza1]

i havent flown it yet though

[Minecraftpizza1]

At 2:35 i just that one today its christmas (:

[taoistflyer]

@Minecraftpizza1 It's a lot of fun.

[serbiahabibi2]

I wanna buy my first heli do you recommend 3 chor 4 ch? :)

[taoistflyer]

@serbiahabibi2 I would recommend a 4 channel coaxial helicopter.

[iGotRice00]

wats the sharpshooter heli that can hold up to six missiles?

[taoistflyer]

@iGotRice00 the heli blaster from silverlit. I have a review of it posted.

[Megalodon64]

02:35 i have that helicopter. I defentetly agree that its preety fast. LOL

[taoistflyer]

@Megalodon64 I'm giving one away this Christmas to one of my subscribers so stay tuned and subscribe if you want a chance to win one.

[rcfanatic101]

I just bought a blade msr just recently, and that would be a good gift for an intermediate flyer. (I will make a video on that shortly.)

[AlexsDMR]

is the airhogs sharpshooter good because i want it for black friday

[rcfanatic101]

To AlexsDMR: I think the sharpshooter is not very well made. My sharpshooter that I had would not hold a charge. Very disappointing.

[taigaboi]

Do you got something good to say about the micro twister pro? Ive heard that it is a really good rc helicopter. I just got a syma 107g and its working just fine! But now i want a helicopter with longer airtime and better flyabilities. Please send me a pm. Thanks!

[taoistflyer]

@taigaboi they look like almost the same type of flying experience, their will be a few differences in performance but you should check out some of the 4 channel helicopter deals at x heli.

they have a few single rotor 4 channel helicopters for less then 40 bucks.

[M3X3MOSACKBOY]

CARE PACKAGE! :D

[Mrblaze0505]

hey where do you think i can get spare rotor blades for the airhogs reflex????

[taoistflyer]

@Mrblaze0505 I've seen them for sale on ebay. you may also be able to use another set of coaxial rotors from a similar helicopter.

[Mrblaze0505]

all the airhogs choppers ive had ive had nothing but trouble with i had the havoc heli then the sharpshooter then the razer then the red rescue chopper and then the reflex and none of them trimmed right idk whether its cause im not letting the gyro calibrate and taking off imediatly but idk

[taoistflyer]

@Mrblaze0505 you should check out  a 4 channel helicopter from e flight, like the MSR or MCX

[20284488]

great landing with the eflite heli congratulations and nice collection!!!!

[ADY18K]

cool rc toys collection man 5* rate :D

[pets019]

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmuuuuuuuu­uuuuuuuuuuutttttttttttt

[juroxzg3]

If youre so skilled whit RC helicopters why dont you go up to the bigger models?

[taoistflyer]

@juroxzg3 They are just so expensive, i can buy 10 small ones for the price of one big 3D capable one, plus the bigger ones can usually only be flown at the air field, the small ones can be flown any time inside rain or shine.

[dittsboylogan]

@taoistflyer Dude............I totaly agree i'm 12 and my parents always tell me to get big ones. But i could get several 2,3, and now 4, channels from toysrus, target, walmart, any local store pretty much!

[taoistflyer]

@dittsboylogan the tech really has come far in the past 5 years, theirs no reason to spend thousands of dollars now, and no more getting snub at the airfield by guys with thousand dollar aircraft, i can fly at home all day and night.

[dittsboylogan]

@taoistflyer I mean it's kinda fun to get maybee a 100 dollar one like a blade mcx2 (which i just got and its awesome!) but the cheaper ones are still great fun, they just don't always last five years. I had an air hogs aero ace bipelane for 6 years and it stilll works!

[ricardoangelc]

KOOL

[mrfunnykidd]

I have the 2 channel micro and i must say it is great to fly its one of my favorites to fly actually its very durable because my cousins have flown it and not broken it ( miracle huh??) But i love to fly it around my sisters head when shes watching tv (haha) its easy to fly so great for begginners and for more experienced pilots its alot of fun and i say you should buy it.

[timyfin]

Love your wife and fly your helicopter... thats it!

[xxkil]

the chinoook is the best and most stable 3 chn i,v ever flown i recently bought the bigger version of the sima chinook and it flies exactly the same if your thinking of getting into rc heli,s please get one of these they are so stable.......HAPPY FLYING :)

[pcelf]

You can get the microcopter again this year at Safeway for 14.99 with the club card. I got one last year and it really flies very, very well. I was surprised and a year later it still flies very well. Depending on your skill, you might need to put some weight on the tail to slow it down. But it''s really a nice heli for 2 channel.

[taoistflyer]

@pcelf it really is one of my favorite 2 channel helicopters ever. looks great flies great, and great price.

[triplejayvideos]

by the way awesome review

[taoistflyer]

@triplejayvideos thank you, stay tuned for my new Christmas special.

[BreakzoneVIDS]

feels like a porno

[firedwheelman]

great video and i am looking for a rc helicopter that can withstand the weight of 3 3/4 inch gijoe. any suggestions

[taoistflyer]

@firedwheelman defintly, go on to xheli and look at the 4 channel coaxial helicopters, the esky lama v3 is the least expensive, and it should be able to carry it.

[nerfman300]

hello, thanks for your reply. but how are the thunder trucks sooooooo much better than the terrain titans?in other words, whats diffrent? and whats the diffrence on charge time? thanks

p.s you do really good reviews.

[taoistflyer]

@nerfman300 Thank you for watching.

They charge in 50 seconds with a better plug, and drive for 5 minutes.

they are more powerful and have a higher wheal base, they don't get hairs stuck in them like the micro terrain titans did, so they are less likely to get bound up by stray hairs on the carpet, they go over obstacles much better, and jump much farther.

the only thing the terrain titans are a little better at is handling, but not enough to justify buying a terrain titan over a thunder truck.

[nerfman300]

does the micro car charge from the wall or controller?

[taoistflyer]

@nerfman300 it charges from its transmitter, and it only takes 50 seconds for it to charge, it drives for about 5 minutes from that charge.check out the new version the micro thunder trucks, much better performance.

[2009ryanbennett]

stop spendin on shit an bye sum curtains u fukin froot

[Pacfan98]

Which 4-channel heli do you recommend me to get for Christmas?:

E-Flite MCX

Air Hogs Helix 360

Both of the above

[taoistflyer]

@Pacfan98 their is a new e-flight MCX version 2, it has improved forward flight speed and stability, don't get the version one, it's way to slow in forward flight.

the e-flight blade msr is even better.

the helix is a lot of fun, it's easy to fly, and it charges quicker and easier then the MCX does, the down side is the IR control, so it's for indoor close range use only, but it's a lot of fun to fly.

[jeepcj5118]

@Pacfan98 get ground stuff

[joshcubbs]

dont fly so close to your face bro

[jmej2010]

i thought u said CYMA THEN I WAS LIKE WTF THEY MAKE AIRSOFT GUNS LOL

[MadDwarfProductions]

2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 etc channels isnt like you can go up right left down and stuff, it controls your servos. i have a 8 channel reciever, and use only 5 channels, check my channel for the vids

[Urkraft1987]

your collection is amazing

[playstation21000]

what is 2channel and 3channel



[taoistflyer]

@playstation21000

4 channel means you can control its up down left right forward backwards and spin, 3 channel only allows for up down forward backwards and spin control,

2 channel only allows for up down and spin control.

[matewz12]

I want to buy the chinook helicopter, what helicopter you recomend me ?

[taoistflyer]

@matewz12 the 3 channel syma Chinook is a really nice helicopter, it flies really well, and it is very inexpensive.

[matewz12]

I dont understand wellthe diference about the halicopter with 4 channels 'cos it 've 4 blades like the other. So what is the diference ??? =)

[taoistflyer]

@matewz12 4 channel means you can control its up down left right forward backwards and spin, 3 channel only allows for up down forward backwards and spin control, 2 channel only allows for up down and spin control.

[flyboy83297]

lol you have the same space between your toes just like my toes!

[silentsniper441]

haha you can see the IR light from the controller on the camera!

[Umaxen]

Great tutorial. Thanks for the vid...

[S4MMYM4N]

gay

[Pimpmastahanhduece]

why dont they just give gps and cell phone powered internet to control a model plane from a computer/handheld program. finally a way to have a camera, out of line of sight, and tens of miles of range. home made spydrones anyone?

[taoistflyer]

it is possible, but you need special permits to fly out of line of sight. The more advanced the technology gets the more controls we will see put on it,

Once you start flying out of line of site it opens up all types of doors, some of them very dangerous.

[Pimpmastahanhduece]

god damn, im only 21, where the hell were $20 5 minute flight rc helis when i was little?! i had to settle for a styrofoam glider with full pitch up or neutral. next thing you know theyll have a streaming camera which works off bluetooth and/or wifi for extreme control all on a heli under $100

[mcbain57]

i got 2 of the cars and i have 2 take one of them i am going to get a thunder truck

[taoistflyer]

@mcbain57 the thunder trucks are a lot better and worth the money, if I would have known about them when i made this video they would have been on the list.

[stoogebrothers]

you now

[evilcanadian43]

were did u get the Chinook at??

[taoistflyer]

x heli, it was only 24 bucks

[evilcanadian43]

ok thax

[sk8doodoo]

lol at 05:17

[sk8doodoo]

i really dont understand why they would even make helicopters that dont go forward and backwards its not even a helicopter without the forwards and backwards

[godfreek]

its has weight at the front so it gose forwards on its own

[viss3n]

you got a good camera girl and camera. cous you can see the infrared!

i got the syma S025 and i love it

[zooom180]

whats the difference between a 2 channel copter and a 4 channel copter?

[taoistflyer]

with a 2 channel heli you can only control up down and spin, they move forward on their own. They aren't very stable or precise, plus they aren't good at teaching you how to fly.

With a 4 channel heli you control up down, left right, forward backwards, and spin. they're easier to control they're more precise, they're much more fun to fly. it's the best way to learn how to fly rc helis

if you're truly interested in helis I suggest you starts with a 4 channel coaxial like an esky lama v3 or v4.

[yttocs5991]

thats hella cool!

[bigsqualor]

Nice review. I want to see you land that 4-channel on the tripod next time!

[taoistflyer]

Not a bad Idea, i should have dun that, I'll try to keep it in mind for the next video.

Thanks for watching.

[motocrossmaniac9]

where did you get that rc helicopter at

[irvinghighweb]

@toist : Great reviews! I got a uControl silver bullet rc heli for xmas, but now I want to find a better one like the ones you showed. FYI, the terrain titans are on sale at Amazon right now; two models are $7.99 and two others are $9.99. At that price they're an even better deal, and you can race 4 at once.

[taoistflyer]

I also picked up a ucontrol silver bullet, i didn't like it very much, it likes to do an extra spin every time it turns so it's hard to control, the forward facing lights also have a tendency to blind you when it's flying at you. i need to do a review of it. I personally like the syma s026 chinook, I fly it more then i fly my blade mcx s300 and it was a lot cheaper.

i also like the 2 channel micro copter at 2:19 it seams to be made by some one called rooftop brands.

[50sk8erdude]

I have a question- I want 2 buy a good micro rc car, but one with a little more design to it. The one u showed looked cool, but I would prefer one with working headlights, based of a real car, and be affordable (hopefully around 20 bucks?). Do u have any recomondations? Btw, nice review, keep up the good work

[taoistflyer]

I like the micro terrain titans because they are so cheap and they work so well, but they don't have working headlights, and they aren't scale cars. I'm really not much into cars and don't know what to tell you but their have been a bunch of cool micro rc cars released in the past few months the rcuniverse and rcgroups forums are probably the best places to go to look for good rc cars. For 40 to 60 bucks you can get some pretty pimp stuff.

[irvinghighweb]

@50sk8erdude: You want RadioShack's "Zip Zap SE", which was discontinued 1-2yrs ago. It has working LED headlights, proportional steering and throttle (3-4 steps each direction), and interchangeable parts - motors, gears, tires, and body shells. The bodies are mostly based on real cars. Check eBay and you might find some still. There are also regular Zip Zaps (now re-released as Xmod micros) but they don't have headlights or propo controls.

[heatblast425]

cool

[thepizzaman8]

this is awesome iam getting a syma

soo8 it look really kool and ur girlfriend is really nice

[slinkydoesit]

You do awesome reviews . Listening to your voice reminds me of Bob Ross.

[taoistflyer]

Thanks, I loved Bob Ross and his happy little trees and bushes, he was a great teacher.

[moolikeacow2]

Nice job man. :-)

[Pawneezr]

Man, I have bought many 3ch's, and a FreeBird 4ch... They all broke really fast... they all have plastic parts the stable bar hooks to the top blade (Inside the middle) There is a piece that I call the T-Joint. It's what the top blade sits on, Gives it that little play so the stable bar can keep the heli even in the air. Well on every Heli, It breaks to easy... One good hard landing or a smack into the wall.. Them cheap Heli's would last longer if they made that section stronger. Light metal..

[taoistflyer]

I've had a few duds myself, but the technology is getting much better, last year I bought a 15 dollar heli at the grocery store and it never flew, this year i bought another 15 dollar helicopter from the same grocery store and it flies better then any 2 channel I've ever flown.

[Partok81]

Great vid. I really like your informative, low key, approach in explaining these things. Keep up the great work you two!

[FreeFallingEmo]

Hey great video!

I was wondering about the Micro Terrain Titans, it looked really fun to play it!

is there anywhere in the UK where i could pick one up? I dont fancy paying alot for the P&P...

Great video once again!

[taoistflyer]

i don't know much about stores in the UK.

But in the USA they sell them at every wall mart, toys r us, and target. Basically any major outlet store that sells toys should carry them or know someone who does.

They are worth every penny, they truly are all terrain vehicles, they have 2 speeds, they charge in only 50 seconds, and drive for 5 minutes, they even have Mario cart versions now. They are really a great gift most stores sell them for about 15 dollars.

[MoRRisoNRisiN]

3. Trex 450 pro

4. E-flight MSR

5. Trinity acucell 6

[taoistflyer]

If your on a budget,

or you're buying something for a friend and you aren't sure what they want, I think these are all great choices.

but

I've wanted a trex Ever since Jason Krause got first place with one in 2005

the spectrum Dx7 Is great.

And I also want an E-flight MSR, they are rather fast.

Hopefully I can afford them soon.

[popcornreviews]

Yeah, I managed to fly a friends MSR into a wall flat out and fell about 20ft, picked it up and just carried on flying!
