This is a great little kit, FOR THE PRICE. I may not be the most precise in terms of fit, but it provides definite bang for buck. Pay close attention to the (limited) instructions and trial fit everything before committing the parts to more permanent fitting. And definitely be careful not to overtighten.
The tail drive occasional rubs on the main gear and this is most probably where future troubles may arise.
But don't forget the great price!

I bought this helicopter for my sister's birthday at the end of March (this month). It did not come with a remote control and I do not know what kind of remote to buy for this. If anyone can direct me to a remote control she can use with this particular Helicopter I would very much appreciate it. She is very good with models the wiring and everything else, but she has never had a remote control helicopter.

Type your review here.
Try to include as much data as possible.

I just now paid for it so I don't have it yet but Looks like it is much more durable than a lot of micro helis only you have to build it before you fly... what better way to get first hand knowledge how a heli works.

I think this heli can be built for not much more than $60.00 if you already have a RX&TX.

Try to include as much data as possible. i would not recommend this heli. though the head is reasonably good. the tail slider and connecting links made it impossible to fly. there was almost 2mm of play in the tail blade if you manually moved them. the connecting links are a bit short so not allowing enough throw to counter torqe the fit and finish of the plastic to the metal slider bushing was poor. i have now spent 50 dollars more for the guai aluminum tail rotor assembly. unlike some of the other customers i did not have any problems with the bearings on the tail shaft. there is no radio tray so it is very difficult to place electronics. if you go to elerc.com they show a tray but it doesnt seem to supplied with this kit. on the front of the frame there is no place to put the battery like how a 450 or other helis mount the battery. the front of my frame had a hole in the center of the of the ribs of the frame so i had to put a piece of carbon rod in it so i could mount the battery with a rubber band. the fit and finish of this hole air frame could be much better so i suggest that if you are looking for a little heli like this you save your money and time and buy the quai 200 you will be much happier in the long run.

It's good item.

But main shaft very flexible, so you must add order main shaft.

And good 205mm blade for this heli just hovering, It's for 250 size heli blade.

Becaue 3d woode blade and plastic blade crack some crash.

I use HK929mg digtal servo and Hk401 gyro.

It is something modify servo mount but very good.

Nichts fr Anfnger!! Anlenkhebel alle falsch vormontiert und keine Grundeinstellungen. Fliegt sich sehr zappelig, trotz Digital Funke. Motor zu schwach.Schrauben werden sehr leicht berdreht. Bei mir waren die Schrauben vom Heckrotor eingeklebt, weil kein Gewinde drauf war.

You cannot have more fun with 20$ than with that heli. I did not believe it - but it flies very stable and smooth and lots of power with 2cells and a 48800kv brushless.

Use plenty of locktite on the tail - and main blade holder screws, and use the Hxt500 (5gr) servos, the extra work to cut out the frame is worth it: day and night difference! I love that little thing.....

I've bought this one and it seems it will fly after I find a way to assemble its rudder. Materials are flexible, quality is not so good, but I happy I can buy something like that for such a low price!



I think I'll buy FF200 after I finally asseble this one
