  • i got the same helicopter and only the front bottom rotor blade doesnt work????????

  • @youbisung12345 I have seen that problem before, make sure that the gears are lined up, and that there is not something like a thread tangled in there stopping it from working. So far I have bought 13 of these exact helicopters for myself and for gifts to friends, and I've only had out of the box problems with 2 of them. One of them had the wrong freq on the controller, so we had to use another controller we already had, and one had bad gears and the blades would not spin correctly.

  • its good but i bought two of them and they both broke

  • @Mcuniversal77 Were these your first RC helicopters? I only ask this because it took me awhile to learn that RC helicopters are really not that easy to learn to fly, and I have broken a dozen of them learning to fly. As RC helicopters go, this model is pretty sturdy, and breaking one of these was not nearly as bad as when I broke one of my $250 helicopters :(

  • it looks awesome. Beanmeister i have a question. I had an S012 (apache) from syma. it turned rapidly when I started increasing freq. of the propeller (when i accelerated) it started turning to the left i believe. do you have any problems like this with the chinook or does it go straight up? I thank you for your answer :D

  • @uros160 Part #2:

    Usually the Chinooks do not spin as much as some of the others but they may have a tendency to slowly spin when you hover. During takeoff I have found that if I try to be gentle and not give it enough power, it will want to spin, or even flop over. So it helps to fly them in an area where there is no chance of hitting anything, that way we do not have to fear giving it more power. The copter in this video is the easiest one I have ever flown, this was my first flight with it.

  • @McNihilation Why do you even bother to comment on a video, when you really have nothing to say?

  • @Darkmessiah121 How much was the shipping? And was it this same model, or did you get the micro one?

  • @BeanMeister22 yeah thanks very much. im just going to go back the shop a show them.

  • @uros160 one of your propellers are broken the motor is not spinning as fast so the helicopter begins to spin with the off balance

  • @MrDippledork it costs for the small one 19.95 the big one cost 69.94

  • I GOT one last year on Christmas and its easy to fly, so much fun... amazing value, im on my third now... lol i love it

  • @BeanMeister22

    i have that exact helicpoter (RC), i bought it for £60.00 about a year ago, and when i fly it. it suddenly has a mind of it's own and accelarates for few seconds and then the connection just drops

  • Like the last post I was interested in this helicopter's cargo capacity. My Kodak Playsport camera is just under 4oz.
