Estes SF161 & R73-OPS 3ch RC helicopters mini-review

[theotherchannel3]

syma is good for cost

[n78422]

I got one of these and it flew great and crashed like you would normal. Only about five times on day after charging it up it just was flying and the motor cuts out like I am letting the throttle off and then it will do that for the whole flight. Do you guys have any sugestions?

[tonto7082]

You can get the Syma brand of these on Amazon for $20. I have the appache (S109)

[movieshop1000]

@tonto7082 how does it do? anything gone wrong with it yet?

[tonto7082]

@movieshop1000 It flies great most of the time. Occasionally mine stops getting the signal from the controller and drops like a rock. I've crashed it ALOT before I broke the drive pin for the top rotor, so it flies all wonky and uncontollable now. But for $20 and free shipping you cant beat it.

[movieshop1000]

@tonto7082 thanks :)

[jonathan54384]

[TraxxasAllOut]

@TraxxasAllOut Watching a video before commenting is recommended :)

[TraxxasAllOut]

@UltimateRCnetwork Your're right. I should have been a lot less stupid and just watched.

[optimusjaan25]

I have the sf161 an after about 2-3 weeks of using to the back motor stopped working!

[XscXps3]

Lol I was playing with my mini gyro heli at the weekend!

[Craftsteen117]

review the redcat i want to see if theyve gotten any better or if there still the same shitty rc's they always were

[losiboy454]

Hmm looks like more fun than the Walmart ones, I'm gonna get one

[meamjustme]

Very nice. I just ordered a $26 4ch helicopter. Cant wait to see how it preforms XD

[rccrazer]

we get these as cobras and verious other manufaturers.



[TheLucas2696]

Now, if you could get parts for them, to actually stock in hobby shops, that would be awesome. But I sure wouldn't sell it if I couldn't get parts for it.

[adma20]

looks like rebranded Syma S107, about 23 bucks on ebay with shipping

[demonchacer]

whats the battery life on those?

[familyrc1]

ripoff of syma s107

[thedarkcore1]

just get an MCX or MCx2 for 40 more bucks or scout for 10 bucks more and can go to your LHS for parts  and cheaper parts for a 100% better RC and its HOBBY grade

[UltimateRCnetwork]

@thedarkcore1 40 bucks more is 100% more and my LHS has no more MCX parts than Syma parts (none of either) :-/

[thorprime1984]

@UltimateRCnetwork I'll agree the that MCX isn't in the same class. But darkcore has a point with the scout. Its a much more stable helicopter than the S107 (it has a full 3-axis gyro), has a replaceable battery, 2.4ghz rather than IR (you can fly it outside in low wind, the gyro is that good). Also, any LHS that stocks air products will have the parts for it. Even given $30 for the Syma vs for the $50 scout, I would recommend the scout right now to anyone looking to get their first RC heli.

[UltimateRCnetwork]

@thorprime1984 I have a scout. It does not have a 3-axis gyro, only one, just like this. There's never a need for pitch & roll gyros in coax craft with flybars as they physically stabilize themselves. The Scout is no more stable than this in my experience. I'll put up a review of that one soon.

[DoverVintageRiderSBR]

This really makes me hate my CX3.

[Atheistprimate]

I like the little red one, might just get one of those.

[3brosRCSam]

i flew one of these around its very fun! The durability is something else too! they are tough.
