Only yesterday got and flew around already!

From minuses (doubtful), charging does not go in a complete set, but it to me and not needed - engaged in helicopters a long ago, there is professional.

Helicopter really very little, but shockingly stable! On soosnikakh did not fly a long ago, all on klasike (T-rex 500,600), for a small apartment in long winter evenings - ideal variant! Does not create noise, managements obeys, hangs up and hangs even on an air pillow (with the easily controlled tearing down). I am satisfied!

I received it yesterday, I made 2 flights to try it... I used my WK-2602 transmitter and it fit very well ^^
First fly was to tame the beast and trimming attempts. But from the second flight, it hovers very well and is very accurate in movement. I didn't have to touch the hardware to have a very stable helicopter !

The only problem I had is at the beginning of the second flight, the rudder rotor didn't want to start !!! But a big shot on rudder stick made it start and it flew very well after... I will see with the future flight if it do it again ? '^^

Very good stuff anyway, I just hope it will be durable (especially the motors which seems to be fragile...)

Excellent little beast!
It The can be hovered almost motionless at one point.
Also, it can be very agile, nimble and fast. Very accurate in control.
After several days of training you can do figure 8 between the legs of a chair. Very durable. But tail boom is the weakest part of it. It's too thin and fragile. It serves only for appearance and not play any role on flight characteristics. There is an excellent replacement for it at a third-party (look for "Xtreme tail boom kit" or "Xtreme Flexible Tail Truss" on the web).
Nevertheless, Walkera 5G6 requires some experience with coaxials.
From the box it should be trimmed well to get an outstanding flight:
1. Tighten all blades, but not too hard. They should move in the blade holder with a little effort.
2. Adjust servos linkages length to get ideal hovering (Don't do it if you haven't experience! It can damage your helicopter!).
3. Fine tune it with transmitter trimmers.
Experienced users recommend to put the heat sinkers on both motors to prolong their life (can be found on web).

Great little helicopter. Very stable and silent. Perfect to fly around expensive TV's and Computers. Maybe even useful for harassing collegues if you have a tolerant boss. -)
