Cheers:

None!

Jeers:

1. It is only 50% complete as shipped, not 95%.

2. Servo holes must be enlarged to fit servos.

3. Tail is difficult to set up for proper travel.

4. Gyro does not set up easily.

5. Only parts pics are provided and no EP200 manual could be found at ELE or elsewhere.

5. Very difficult to control in flight.

5. Frame broke at tail support, which is poor design, after crash.

6. Parts are very difficult to find anywhere.

Hello,

Nice little heli for indoor flying. All parts are good quality and are easy to mount with the pictures on this site. I had to enlarge a little bit de servo locations but now the servo's are perfect fitted. Had paint my canopy yellow also. The frame is PVC and very strong, all the screws fit very well in this frame. I am just looking for spare parts (ball links) and can't find them. First flight at home, very nice. Tanks Hobbycity!

Not impressed...

Mar 08, 2009

Ok, first of, its not 95% assembled... There are no instructions, and although you can figure it out, and the pictures on this site help, its a pain. The screws to hold the balls on the servo arms are missing. The motor comes with bare wires, no connectors, but the ESC comes with connectors. Now I either have to source some small connectors to fit, or just cut them off the ESC and solder the wires together, thats what I'll end up doing. This is the first product I have been dissapointed with from Hobby City, and I've ordered lots of stuff so far. This is all my first impression, I just received it today and have not even flown it yet.

PROS:

1. Includes a 2S 800mah battery. 5-6 min. of hover.

2. Gyro works well.

3. Heli is more stable than expected.

4. The frame appears to be nearly indestructible.

5. Parts are relatively cheap. Some FF100 parts will fit the FF200.

CONS:

1. No manual. Only a parts diagram.

2. Servo mount openings are too small for the servos.

3. One servo died on the 4th flight.

4. Blade grips are easily broken.

Pre-assembled but the manual is not helpful. You have to imagine which parts is for which, decide your own process. The pictures on this site will be helpful for assembly, linkage in particular. Electric parts don't have connectors at all. You have to prepare them by yourself. Apply screw glue to the main / tail blade holder screws. Tail parts spined-off during flight in my case. After all this tiny heli flys very well, considering its size.
