We fly all my helis ! Helis in this video are. Nano s3 Blade 120s2 Blade 150s Smart Blade Infusion 180 Blade 330s Smart My favorite is the blade 330s !
I really really liked your video. I've been flying a direct drive brushless helicopter in 6G which is like safe and having a blast. But 3-D pilots have been looking down on me they don't understand if I'm having fun that should be enough… One of the reasons why I love your video so much is because your more real than all the other videos about helicopters. most people can relate to this… I don't even want to fly 3-D. I don't have the money for the broken parts either… All I can say thank you for being out here. And just enjoy and fly the way you want.
I was there bro right where you are now , and the 3d guys look down on you like that because it how they push you to go big. I can do some 3d now but it has taken years of practice and hours on the sim. Just keep them in air and sim time and you will be looking down on noobies soon enough to 😁.
@@merlavery5057 thanks for your comment but I will never look down on new pilots. I don't have a narcissistic bone in my body… Each person can have fun anyway they wish. The ones that show this I'm better than you they are the losers. I would hate to have friends like that. Competitive their souls are a little fried and it's going to their head.
Keep flying bro you are doing great. The aggressive flights will come gradually as your skill level and confidence level rises. I was were you are years ago but now I can fly the wings off your birds . It will happen. Stay on the sim .
Thank you, you have saved me a shed load of money, I was thinking of getting the 150 or 180 but I don't want a 3D monster, just something to cruise around with. I think I'll stick with my MCPX BL and MCPS helicopters.
Great Video CLEARLY demonstrating how expensive this RC Heli Hobby is. New piece of thin plastic canopy: $20+, New plastic swash plate assembly $20+, New battery due to damage of a single cell in the pack.....another $20+......I've seen guys go broke and/or clearly mismanage their financial priorities due to this hobby alone, not that I'm implying you're guilty of such. - Best advice I can give you - Purchase a single heli (even a 700 Class) with safe mode/ bail-out, give yourself plenty of altitude for mistakes and learn on ONE helicopter instead of confusing yourself with a variety of flight characteristics.
Great advice. I have the same issue as the op. You find the tail settings are so different between helicopters. I'd say for that reason alone go with one.
@@jakesrcflying8601 We've all been there, 3 factors to success.Time,cost and perseverance....but its an addiction! Might be worth using a very dialed down setting as per John Salt (on rc helicopter fun) lots of expo, reduced dual rates and reduced pitch curves to make it less twitchy. The 150 is a great little bird when dialed in but it's a handful straight out of the box on recommended settings. Took me 6 months to get mine flying how I wanted it.
@@jakesrcflying8601 I think you can fly fine, you are dealing with confidence. I highly recommend taking it slower and trying to do simple hovering in idle up without the safety net of SAFE. Safe is great for beginners but also teaches you that you can be rough on the sticks to get it moving around vs idle up were you need to be much more gentle and deliberate with inputs. Its totally different than being in safe and holding the stick in a direction. The right way is to learn to tilt the rotor head and control the momentum you get when the heli starts moving in that direction.
I highly recommend the fusion 480 super combo kit and the fusion 180 smart! The fusion one 180 is a absolute ripper! It's a fuking beast on 4s! U can 5000 rpm on the head and it's mental! 100% throttle 0 throttle offset.
Have a 150s and Fusion 180. Got advance enough to the point the 150s tail could not hold in fast tail forward flight. Switched to the Fusion 180 and was blown away with the tail performance. It held excellent with everything I through at it, albeit there was tuning necessary on the PID's.
Had plenty of blade helis back in my early days of flying. The mcpx v2 was the heli that taught me. Flew it EVERY day learning the basics. Now I fly the big boy helis doing big air stunts and 3d.
if you're wanting a dirt cheap Ali Express heli, the v911s is a good buy, I have been flying mine around for a while now. It isn't collective pitch but a good intro to flying.
@@Anthraxnz64 Okay sorry my fault.. I typed it into duckduckgo then clicked on the link and it said no longer available but it probably meant from that ali express seller. I didnt type it into ali express search engine itself, which is what I should of done. Sorry.
Have you ever tried direct drive helis like the OMP M1 or M2? I have started with a Blade 230S V2 and it was fun, but these little birds with direct drive motors for the main and tailotors are so much more stable and have a lot more power. Worth to try them for sure.
The new eachine 120 direct drive looks pretty good too, doesn't have brushless tail motor like the omp but haven't seen the tail wash out in any videos yet
Just a heads up. Using safe all the time is a bad habit. When you move onto a 600 up and don’t have it and get in trouble you may not know how to correct it if you don’t practice it. I got into that habit when I bought a 300 cfx and when I got back flying my old raptor 50 I slammed the ground reaching for the safe switch lol.
DUDE!!! 24:25..."forward programming..." WHAT!? lol 28:11 The foam blocks on the body posts. When I got mine, thought it might be slick to leave them on, however, without trimming, they interfere with the servo arm. Be careful! I just got my 330S today. Haven't maidened it yet. too windy for me.
Thumbs up. More people should care about small helicopters for their natural high endurance of flight time. I modified my 230s to become a FPV helicopter at 249 grams and HD onboard video recording that flips/dives/snaps with 35 minutes of flight time per charge. No quads under 250 grams can ever beat that, not even professionally designed DJI. They either have to change a battery and going over 250 grams, or they have to turn off HD video and turn off FPV and navigation and make the drone fly in a circle at constant speed to get that advertised 35 minutes per charge, and even then, they can't flip/dive/snap.
@@mrcadzilla collective pitch means the heli uses the pitch of the blades to go up and down with a fixed blade RPM. (Allowing for inverted flight) Fixed pitch means the heli uses throttle to go up and down with varying RPM.
At least you showed you're inexperienced, lol. 😂 I'm a fan boy of HH. And blade. They are cheap compared to a real one. However, the buyer still needs to set up. If you expect it to fly awesome out of the box, it's hard to come by. (There have been a few in my life).. Once tuned, they are great, helis. But no quality control, that's on you. Lol. The 180 is my next buy. And the 150, lol. Learn to fly that 150. Or 180. The 330 is flying you, and that's not good. Too big. I've had most, 10 years ago. Getting back in, I bought the 230 and 330. Love em both. I need to figure out the tilt when I hit panic on the 330. But it's the same as my old 450x. Other than new lol. Have fun and be safe
Don’t keep buying and breaking new canopies. Instead, tape then back together with scotch tape until you stop crashing. That’s what I do, and it works fine.
For the tiny canopies I use the clear plasti-dip in the spray and tape off the outer side and spay a couple coats on the inside it will hold together even after the canopy gets cracked
The 230s is a great heli I will have a video soon for it ! I haven’t had a chance to Maiden mine yet but have heard great things but it is a little underpowered.
@@jakesrcflying8601 i bought that one last year and have only flown it once. What little experience I have is with rc planes, but I plan on flying it more. Seems like it has enough power for me but then I am extremely inexperienced with rc helicopters.
Your saying the 150 hard to fly or fusion ? Anyone for that matter you can tame them all down with the radio been flying 15 years you will not learn how to truly fly on safe its cool for a save in a pinch thats it
Dude you need to get a simulator till you get better. Crashing is part of the hobby but you shouldn’t be putting after market parts on till you really have your orientation down. I made that mistake years ago.
First train to fly an heli at a sim before starting 3D and talk about how the model fly! You fly only around (most of the time forward and backward) whitout any control! Don`t give tipps to beginners before you self can fly ! Best greetings Rainer from Germany!
The best Heli for a beginner will always be a 500. It's the sweet spot. It's stable which anything below isn't (Dot fly with DPS and all other 'helping' adds - Learn to fly is much better,) The pricing is right, buy a used one, and team up with a guy that actually can fly. Spares are affordable, it rockets up in $$$ from a 550. The smaller are way too twitcy and most beginners will get very frustrated with the small heli's The 500 flyes like a much bigger heli, and that makes it much more easy to learn how to fly it. And DON'T start beliving 3D is what you want to learn as a beginner.
i have a fleet of seven different models of blade helicopters they are crap half of the helicopers were down waiting for parts especialy tail motor burning out finally got smart stop buying parts went to rc cars better hooby cheaper
