The Bible of Manipulating the RC Helicopter


As a player for the remote control helicopter, you must have your own the bible of manipulating the RC Helicopter. Because the remote control helicopter is not a simple toy, its principle is the same as the real aircraft flight. If you adopt the improper operation, it is very dangerous. So I have to remind you to pay attention to safety, and remote control helicopter must be on the premise of safety to bring you happiness. The novice is always very excited and easily to control the remote control helicopter at the first touching. Such as manipulation is not correct, it will happen to bad condition that fell down the ground and can be dangerous.
Compared to the operation of other remote-control devices, RC helicopters are a little trickier to master. Their responsiveness is also their handicap for the novice, because one misstep will send your new toy hurling to the ground below. Once the remote control helicopter does not receive radio signals, the propeller stops working, and the helicopter will directly fall into the ground. Although helicopters have the design of seismic, but this kind of way is not conducive to extend the life of the model. Unfortunately, the best remote-controlled helicopters are made to take a few crashes. Here are a few tips for your first flight.
RC Helicopter
1. Start small. Although helicopters are easily operation and have good stability, it is still an aircraft. If you want to handle it well, you also need a period of time and learn how to operate it. Only by constantly improve your own manipulation skills can you find the great fun for the remote control helicopter. You must carefully read the accompanying instructions before the flight, and do not be eager to real machine operation. Even can look for an experienced person to learn as a teacher. It is also important for you to check after the assembly. What is “nip something in the bud.”
2. Start from the test flight. At the beginning, you’d better priority to low flying (about 1 meter), and push the lever to half, feeling the manipulation of the handle. It’s not difficult to to make the helicopter fly high, the great master will fly to in the low altitude stationary hover, and steer and precise fixed-point landing around. Manipulation of the remote helicopter that is where the greatest pleasures, but you want to reach this level, you usually need to 5 ~ 6 voyage (to charge for a voyage), not impatient.
3. Start from charging. Your helicopters flying batteries stored the parts for you in the first time to test the functionality of the helicopter. The helicopter is not charged before the first test, you can simply fly a few minutes. When power become weak, you should land the helicopter and recharge the batteries. Please follow the instruction of the charging time. When the helicopter fly, the battery need to run out the power and repeat 3 ~ 5 times. And then the performance of the battery is in the best state. Maximum flight time, let the battery cooling between flights. A hot battery don’t charge as efficiently and may interrupt the fun after two or three minutes instead of the five to seven minutes that most RC helicopter batteries provide at their best. Consider buying an extra battery so that you can be using one while the other is charging. You also note that you should turn off the power switch of the helicopter before charging, and battery plug cannot be plugged in reverse, otherwise, battery will break.
RC Helicopter
4. Start from familiar with the directional controls of your RC helicopter. On two-channel helicopters, you only control the up/down movement and left/right rotation. These helicopters can’t hover in place, they move forward as a default. Three-channel helicopters put you in charge of forward (and sometimes backward) movement, so they can hover in place if you set this to zero (usually by not touching the control). Four-channel helicopters can also move sideways. The more channels, the more control you have over your device, but the more practice it takes to get good at it. you have in your device, but more practice to get good. It is difficult for a novice to operate the helicopter at once. So you’d better be good at using the fine-tuning button on the remote control. You effectively control helicopter flying up and down and it is easy to operate it flying left and right. In generally, the novice can simply operate the helicopter in a week.  If you want to play a variety of fancy, you need more efforts to practice.   
5. Start from crashing. When the plane crashed into an object, you should quickly push the accelerator down or turn off the switch, and should not continue to refuel to reduce the damage to the motor. After a crash, check the condition of your helicopter in you put it in the air to avoid missing parts again. So you control the helicopter, you can use small, subtle movements. Fast speed or direction changes will make you lose control.
6. Start from safety. Your operating level is not very good, when you learn the control of the helicopter at beginning. It is possible for you to happen to accident or hurt other people. Therefore, the best place to play the helicopter is flat over and no obstructions open field. It is more ideal, if there is a lawn. The most basic is away from the crowds as far as possible to ensure safety. 

May be you will think that the remote control helicopter is just a toy. From now, I hope you can change your mind, because it’s really dangerous if you adopt to wrong operation. 
In a word, hope these tips can make you get you more the pleasure of playing remote control helicopter. To be honest, I has played remote control helicopter for a long time, in my hectic life, it is not just a way to relieve stress and release the mood, also has exercised my ability. I adhere to manipulate it every week, and I keep practicing. It’s really make me develop good patience and perseverance. If you want to prove you helicopter flight technology, in addition to practice, and practice. So come on! Let your remote control helicopters fly freely in the sky!

Red Esky Hunter Co-Axial RC Helicopter


I want to introduce one helicopter for you, this is Red Esky Hunter Co-Axial RC Helicopter.
The Esky Hunter Co-Axial was designed to be an authentic scale model of an EC130 helicopter used by police and emergency medical service agencies.The Hunter's finely crafted and highly detailed fuselage fratures a realistic ducted tail rotor and a colored indicator light in the tial which flashed during flight.The product includes the helicopter,transmitter,changeer,extra set of main blades,Li-Po battery,and 8xAA Batteries for the remote.In this 2.4 GHz remote control set with 4channells,you have a radio control system that is suited for model planes and model helicopters.
Red Esky Hunter Co-Axial RC Helicopter
 Its proportional function channels allow 4 control functions to be remotedly controlled independently of one another. The 2.4 GHz transmitter and the receiver tuned to it do not work on a frequency prendetermined by the sender and recevier crystals.Each time they are switched on, the transmitter and receiver scan the frenquency band for an available, open channel on which the radio link is then established. Naturally, you can use other programs as well, since the function of the remote control transmitter via the interface for the opera-ting system looks like a conventional joystick. This means, that each game that can be operated via a joystick/gamepad, can be operated via the transmitter. However, keep in mind that the keys of a conventional joystick/ gamepad are nuturally not available on the transmitter.
The product must not get damp or wet. In an uncontrolled flight condition, a remote controlled model helicopter can cause extreme damage and injury; you, as the owner, shall be resonsible for the same.Ensure that your insurnrance covers these damages or get a special model airplane insurance.Please get the assistance of an experienced model pilot or a model airplane insurance. Please get the assistance of an experienced model pilot or a nodel making club for the initial test flights. Take note of all the safety instruction in this operating manual! This model is not suitable for children under 14 years of age! The Esky RC helicopter is completedly ready to fly out of box!
Red Esky Hunter Co-Axial RC Helicopter
How to bind the transmitter & Receiver:
The transmitter and receiver are already correctly preset at the factory. It is normally not necessary to restore the link. Only after changing the receiver or transmitter or to correct an error might it be necessary to carry out this procedure. Since other manufacturers use different frequencies, channels and methods of coding and decoding, a different transmitter/ receiver combination than what comes with the set might be incompatible. Therefore only use genuine spare parts.The bind button on the receiver can be accessed from the front through battery compartment.Take out the rechargeable battery.
And then, this is what I want to tell you about Red Esky Hunter Co-Axial RC Helicopter, hope you will like it. If you want to find more information for it, you can find the rctophobby.

The Advantages And Disadvantages Of Remote Control Car

Remote control car referred to as RC Car, RC is short for Radio control or Remote control. In Europe, Japan and Southeast Asian countries, the remote control model car race is a kind of sports competitions and a noble sport, even a high-tech hobby. This is a competition from age limit because enthusiasts who participate in this sport is aged from 8 to 80 years. This also suggests that the remote control cars is the same as remote control aircraft, whether adult or children can play. However, it has a certain degree of risk, because the remote control car is not a simple toy, its principle is the same as the real car. So, I still recommend that children would better to accompany by their parents.
RC car
Players who just touch remote control car will certainly be very crazy, there are too many types of remote control cars, then what kind of remote control cars is most appropriate. Let me tell you the classification of remote control car and have a simple understanding of remote control car.
According to different classification of motivation
1, Oil move RC car
Oil move remote control model car is powered by a fuel engine, it also can be divided into classified according to the type of fuel. Fuel powered engine has the advantage of powerful, it has high degree of onomatopoeia vehicle model simulation, and can give players a real feel. The advantages is large fuel. If there is leakage, the maintenance will be very troublesome. In addition, since the fuel is added to increase the engine power output compounds that are corrosive, so vehicles need to do careful corrosion protection, maintenance cost is not small.
2, Electric remote control car
Electric remote control car is primarily provided power by an electric motor. Due to powered by a battery, it has the higher the overall operating efficiency and excellent acceleration performance of vehicles. Because of Clean Energy, the vehicle maintenance is very convenient, just pay attention to the maintenance of transmission parts. But because the electric motor remote control car need high requirements of motor performance and battery performance, so the motor and battery  consumption is very high in the beginning, coupled with the electronic speed control, remote equipment costs. If you want to run an electric model cars, you will be basically going to spend over 2000, which is one of reason to make electric remote control model car restrictions.
RC car
According to the remote control car driver type and shape classification
1, SUV
SUV can be seen as a flat road car variant, the chassis is also a flat shape. But diameter of tires is much larger, suspension travel has also increased, which is mainly to increase the performance of the vehicle through performance. At the same time to increase vehicle power, SUV also need to put forward higher requirements in vehicle steering or other aspects of the vehicle on-board electronic systems, such as the need for greater torque servo steering gear to provide powerful steering torque, etc.. The advantages of SUV is that to retains the high-speed performance and increase through performance. That is a relatively funny remote control car.
2, Monster Truck
Do not think that big wheels can be called monster truck. Monster truck is relatively flat road cars and SUV, it has its own unique characteristics. In addition to large wheels, truck biggest feature is hardly a vehicle chassis, to support vehicles parts transmission and axle systems are generally appeared in the form of frames and side plates, as if all the parts are " hanging" on the frame. The benefits is to improve the off-road performance. The bottom of the car can be made arch to meet the rugged road, so the car has high playability. According to the different speeds, it can be graded, ordinary monster and climb monster truck. The climb monster truck is mainly designed to climb the rugged road, a huge vehicle torque, but in order to meet the torque and stability, the speed will be very slow. vehicle work requirement is very high, the price does not poor.
3, Flat road car
Flat road vehicles are concerned for RVs and cars, because of its low chassis, chassis plate-like, vehicles through poor performance, but the straight line stability and acceleration are the most superior. Two -wheel-drive flat road car is mainly used for racing, flat road four-wheel drive sports car for racing, drift race, etc.
Now do you have a general understanding of the remote control model cars? So how to choose a suitable remote control model car? First of all, you have to understand remote control car, you can choose according to the above type, and then make your own choices based on the quality of remote control car, appearance, utility, brand and so on. But there are several points to note:
1, The best choice is to choose batteries, and also to choose a professional RC model batteries, such as the World leopard lithium batteries. Because the charging is too trivals easy to damage.
2, To choose a solid and durable, and simple to operate.
3, The vehicle must be selected a good bonding effect, it is very important to all parts bonded together, this is not easy to escape.
4, there must be additional instructions, product manufacturers and related certification. The important thing is that products are made of a lot of recycling waste materials which have many harmful ingredients, bad for your health.
For this kind of remote control toys, I also like. However, I know its danger, even experienced its dangers. That is because the RC car is not a simple toy, its principle is the same as the real car. that . So I suggest that you must carefully select the appropriate remote control toys. Meanwhile, I hope you can free to enjoy the driving pleasure, but more importantly, I hope that it can relieve your stress and give your life to add a touch of color.

Yellow Esky Lama V5 CO-COMANCHE RC Helicopter

How about some honest truths to begin with? I’ve flown plenty of planes, but I’ve never flown a helicopter before.
I’ve been rather intrigued by them though, especially now that they’ve become more affordable and a lot easier to fly thanks to coaxial rotors and other features that make them more beginner-proof than ever. Beyond that, I know little to nothing. Gyro? Sounds like a Greek dish to me. Coaxial? Sounds good if it makes it easier to fly. Hover? I know what that is, but I also know I’ll eventually figure out how to do it. Durable — and a spare set of blades? So, when ESky came out with its latest beginner helicopter, I knew it was time to go ahead and try it. The esky Lama v5 Co-Comanche, while similar under the canopy to its older siblings the Co-Co Lama and Lama V4, does include some upgraded electronics. On the outside, it comes in three different offerings of canopy: desert sand, olive drab or camouflage.
All it takes to get started is putting the batteries in the transmitter and then charging the LiPo. The RC helicopter comes pretrimmed and tested from the factory, so there’s technically no trimming required other than what you do on the receiver. The charger works extremely well, and I like the safety that a balancing charger like this offers. It’s a nice touch that you can also charge it through the included wall wart, especially for a beginner who may not have access to a battery or a 12V power supply. Now, if you want to charge the battery through your charger of choice, you may do so, too: The LiPo comes with a JST connector, and the balancing charger fits any V2 connector. It took about an hour to charge the battery (it charges it at .8A, or 1C for this specific battery). So, with the battery charged, it was time to head to the field and see if this really was a beginner helicopter!

Yellow Esky Lama V5 CO-COMANCHE RC Helicopter 

Flying
Basics
After doing a range check and making sure each stick was doing its job, it was time to throttle up. Just a tad over half throttle is all I needed to get off of the ground. Anything beyond that, and it was headed skyward quite quickly (though full throttle can be quite the life, er, blade saver in hairy situations). Any less, and it is a victim of gravity. The radio works wonderfully, and the 4-in-1 controller along with the servos are surprisingly responsive, especially for a beginner model. While other beginner systems may have a bit of a lag, the Co-Comanche is quick to respond. Flying the Co-Comanche was surprisingly easy: The pitch, roll and yaw rates are rather low, so I didn’t have to worry about getting the helicopter into a situation I couldn’t get myself out of easily. I found that I had to trim the roll rate a bit, but that was about it. If there’s one thing you want to remember about the Co-Comanche as you head out the door it is this: It doesn’t like wind. So, especially on your first few flights, be sure to find a nice, calm day or otherwise find a indoor space. In wind it gets tossed around easily, and it becomes a bit hairy to control. The pitch rate is nice and gentle, and it won’t just lurch forward quickly. Sometimes I found that to be more of a hindrance than a help, but it’s a matter of trimming it to your liking. It looks great in the sky, too. It definitely has a great scale look to it, and I think beginners appreciate flying a realistic-looking kit rather than a model designed for easy flight. It is often a more rewarding experience. Most importantly, I appreciate that you can fly the Co-Comanche close to you. I found myself flying at above eye level or a bit higher than that and always within a 15-to-20-yard radius outside. I could actually see what I was doing.
Take-offs and landings
The trick to takeoffs is to make sure you do so from a level spot, especially if you’re in the grass. With a model this small, you’ll often find yourself rolling over, and even more often if you don’t have your Co-Comanche fully trimmed. In the pavement it’s just a matter of revving up to about half throttle, and you’re in business. It’s that easy. Landings are not hard either though I found that the landing gear is a bit on the flimsy side. I broke the front wheel setups a few times (though they’re easy to repair). The rear wheel also can come loose if you’re not careful since it’s just glued to the fuselage with some CA. Unfortunately, there are no training balls available, which would help beginner pilots with their landings.
Acrobatic maneuvers
With the counter-rotating blades, the model is as stable as you’d expect, and the travel rates are low enough that you won’t be able to do anything aggressive with them, so there are no aerobatics to speak of.

Yellow Esky Lama V5 CO-COMANCHE RC Helicopter

The great indoors
At first, I was a bit apprehensive of flying the Co-Comanche inside. As a beginner, I thought I would be a bull in a china shop. But, since I was doing this review in the winter, and it had been too windy outside to shoot video for it, I bit the bullet and decided to try the plane indoors. I straightened out the garage a bit, took the cars outside, and put the heli on the floor. I was ready to take to the (limited) skies. And boy, was it fun! Indoors is where the Co-Comanche performs best by far, and indoors is where you’ll have the most fun as well, especially if you’re a beginner. Think you’ll break the heli indoors? No way. Your flights will be a lot more stable so you won’t be crashing as much (you won’t get tossed around by the wind, either). Think you won’t have enough room? No way. You can fly in a living room, a break room, an office — anywhere! This is where I found out how gentle this heli is. I knew the counter-rotating blades would make this ESky heli way easier to fly, but I didn’t know it would be THIS easy. After a while, I was able to let go of the sticks, and the Co-Comanche would just hover in the same spot forever. You can have a lot of fun with it, too: You can set up obstacle courses, make patterns around the house, you name it. The possibilities are endless.
Is this for a beginner?
If I could fly it, so can you! As a first-time pilot, it only took me a couple of minutes to get my bearings and get used to flying the Co-Comanche. As long as you fly indoors or in calm-wind situations, you’ll be able to control this heli easily. The control rates are low enough that you won’t be able to get into situations that you won’t be able to get out of until you hit the ground.
Conclusion
Well, I did it. I flew a helicopter. I thought it would take three helicopters in the trash before I could fly one successfully, but I proved myself wrong. I owe it to the Esky Co-Comanche that I was able to do so without wrecking three models in the process. It’s easy to fly, it’s forgiving, and it’s durable. It looks great, too, which is sure to give beginners even more of a grin of their faces. This is a great value. And, should you break blades (which, along with landing gears, you more than likely will so go ahead and order a couple of extra sets of them), replacement parts are affordable. For any beginner, that’s something worth considering. The electronics, especially for this price, are great, and they are fully transferrable and upgradable – yet another nod for this great helicopter.

How To Choose The RC helicopter

So you've decided to look for RC helicopters and not sure which model to choose? Let us and our experience in the RC helicopter help you make the best decision and remember that we carry spare parts for all the remote control helicopters we sell. Trend Times only sells electric powered rc helicopters as they are quieter, cleaner, safer, and easier to use than gas powered rc helicopters. Plus, you can fly them indoors when you get accomodated to flying the helicopter and do not have to worry about the neighbors complaining of noise. These helicopters are whisper quiet which is especially important if you want to mount a mini camera on your heli. Our mini cameras transmit in full motion color with sound. Therefore you want your helicopter to be as quiet as possible or the noise on the video will be to great.
RC Helicopter
We have 2, 3, 4, and 6 channel helicopters. 2 & 3 channel helicopters are more geared for children or the occasional helicopter flyer that just wants to have some fun in the backyard or living room and are listed here. These remote control helicopters are really fun to fly and will keep you entertained for hours. Check out our full range of toy helicopters that are great for all ages.
4 channel helicopters are geared for people that want to learn the RC helicopter hobby and demand precise control that mimicks a full scale helicopter. Many of our 4 channel helicopters come with free flight simulator programs which you load onto your computer and connect the included computer cable to the helicopter remote control and your PC. Now you can practice flying RC helicopters on your computer with the actual remote control! These remote control helicopters fly forwards, backwards, left, right, and hover too. Bank right, bank left, and perform all the maneuvers of a real helicopter. You can fly them outside and when are more experienced fly them right inside the house.
6 channel CP (collective pitch) RC helicopters are just like 4 channel helicopters plus they can perform inverted 3D flight maneuvers. That means you can fly these helicopters upside down. CP RC helicopters are a great choice for people that have experience in flying remote control helicopters or for people that have patience and want to learn the helicopter hobby. Here you can find our 6 channel helicopters.
RC Helicopter
Remote Control Helicopter Information:
2, 3, & 4 channel Fixed pitch (FP) helicopters have blades that remain at a fixed angle (you can not alter their pitch). To get lift on these helicopters you must increase the power to the main blades. They are simpler in design, and are easier to fix when damaged.
6 Channel collective pitch (CP) helicopters control lift through the angle of the blades, they have 3 servos instead of 2 (like the fixed pitch models) allowing you to alter blade pitch. This will let you perform more stunts and inverted flight, but they are more suited to an experienced flyer.
How about now? Are you very clear about the rc helicopter through my presentation?Hope you can choose a very satisfied helicopter.

Why Remote Control Helicopter Will Be Delayed?


Remote control helicopter has been growing love for people, and with the development of social science and technology, this technology is also constantly progress, when operating the remote control aircraft, most people will encounter series of questions for example how far the remote control helicopter can fly, how high can fly, and how long can fly. Now let me on these issues to be analyzed it.
RC Helicopter
1. How long model helicopter can fly in the air?
Typically how much flight time ( blank time ) is mainly determined by the power system. If the size of the electric motor power helicopters and carrying capacity of the battery voltage and engine displacement of oil moving helicopter carrying the fuel used and the volume. Generally either electric or oil moving empty time after a charge or refuel in 10-20 minutes. First, the energy weight restrictions, and the second is also taken into account to avoid manipulation by prolonged mental fatigue two highly centralized control caused turnovers.
2. How far and high the remote control helicopter can fly?
Due to the higher altitude, the lower air density, so the helicopter flight altitude generally much lower than fixed-wing aircraft flight altitude, even so it has been far greater than our visual control distance and remote distance, soin terms of flight altitude and flight distance of the aircraft is decided to the remote control device's safe remote distance and visual distance. Generally particularly smaller body aircraft flight speed also up to 20 meters.
3.Why so difficult to fly the plane , did not think so good to fly?
There are mainly two major reasons:
1). Since the stability of the helicopter can not be compared with the fixed-wing aircraft. In addition to the coaxial propellers structure of the helicopter, there is no a helicopter can not be controlled in a stable floating state of a long time in the air ( usually within 10-20 seconds, will lose balance and fall to the ground in ) , so you must keep the spirit of the highly centralized control.
2). I personally think that because the beginner has not yet formed a conditioned reflex to control the direction in the brain in the beginning, so often the aircraft is under some kind of flight attitude, giving the aircraft via a transmitter wrong action command, even brain a blank , but the aircraft did not give enough time to manipulate those corrections caused by plunging to the ground . Just keep right exercise can be manipulated with ease up. In the early days can be completed using a computer simulator exercises.
RC Hlicopter
4. why the helicopter will turn left, or in the other direction rather than straight off when taking off?
That was under the influence of downwash effects and main rotor gyro, it is generally tilted to the left during takeoff helicopter type normal. Need to play some slightly to the right aileron control lever ( right hand horizontal lever ), but not by aileron fine-tuning, such as the case of observing stable after hovering around the body sway and then adjust the aileron trimming. If the offset to the other direction can be corrected at the time on the ground by fine-tuning.
Nowadays airplanes are the best entertainment toys for the most people, remote control helicopter flying in the air will follow our hearts off, remote control helicopter will bring us a very strong sense of stimulation, sense of stimulation is now the main pursuit of people's lives one. Many people understand the remote control is not enough, remotely piloted aircraft and sometimes there will be some glitches, the problem we first need to do is to analyze the reasons why there is a delay on the remote control helicopter can not fly and spin the issue as follows:
The main reason there is a delay of remote control helicopter three points:
First. Distance problem, maybe too far away cause reception problems.
Second. Most helicopter landing gear wires are tied there, and that is to receive remote control commands wires, you need to check the wire is broken or damaged.
Third. Remote control power, how much power of remote control is directly related to with remote sensitivity, the above questions so I suggest you make a body check to the aircraft.
Helicopter can not fly and always spin as follows:
Frist spin, because your motor can not provide the speed of taking off, there is not enough lift, plus the plane of the motor torque led to the aircraft spin.
Followed by either your plane overweight , but this situation should not happen.
Motor voltage and current speed is not enough to specify. The reason may be in the plane of the circuit board. If HM four more helicopter by another four-in this case as long as the receiver is on the line.
I hope the above analysis can make you a better understanding of model helicopter.

The Skill Of Remote Control Model That You Must Know


Remote control model is a kind of entertainment, mainly divided into two parts, the remote control and model. Player mainly through remote control from electromagnetic wave (sometimes for infrared, but quite rare), driving or flying control model. 
If you research remote control model deeply, it is a deep and complex world. Assembly, maintenance, handmade and handling of all kinds of remote control are very complicated. Some remote control model is children's toys, of course not be so complicated to operate. But the real professional players playing remote control model, all aspects are quite profound. For beginners, I'd like to give some suggestion. 
RC Helicopter
For thr first time, the structure of the coaxial sculls is the best choice to the rc helicopter, the stability of this structure is the best, the speed is slow, the trainer is a helicopter! Also you can choose the traditional small level model of the main rotor + tail rotor structure, speed faster, airspace, but as far as possible, choosing the stability helicopter.
How much empty flight time (time) is mainly determined by the power system. Such as the motor power of the electric helicopter using size and carry the battery voltage and capacity, engine oil displacement of the helicopter and carry fuel volume. General electric or oil on a single charge or the blank time after refueling in 10 to 20 minutes or so. One is energy weight limit, the other is also considered to avoid the pilot lots of concentration for a long time transition fatigue caused by the manipulation of the error. 
Due to the higher the height, the lower the air density, so the helicopter flight level are generally much lower than that of fixed wing aircraft, even so have distance is much larger than our visual control and remote control distance, so it can be for the aircraft's flight altitude and flight distance is the distance from the security of the remote control equipment remote control and visual range. Form special smaller aircraft usually flying height can reach more than 20 meters (about 5 to 6 floors). 
The plane hard to control, there are two big reasons:
1. The stability of the helicopter can't be compared with the fixed wing aircraft. Besides the structure of the coaxial sculls again helicopter, there is no a helicopter can not control condition for a long time and stable floating in the sky (usually within 10 to 20 seconds off balance and fell to the ground), so you have to keep a spirit highly centralized control! 2. Due to the beginners in the first place has not been formed in the brain to control the direction of a reflex, so under the plane in a flight attitude, often through the transmitter to the plane error motion commands, and even the brain a blank, and the plane can't give enough time to correct the pilot, and fell to the ground. As long as the correct constantly practice can be easily manipulated. In the early also can be finished with the help of a computer simulator practice.
RC Helicopter
pitch
Pitch refers to the helicopter rotor or fixed wing of the propeller rotates 360 degrees, up or walk forward distance (in theory). Is just like a screw, screw you after a circle, can the length of screw in. The greater the pitch forward distance, whereas the smaller! However it is difficult to measure the size of the pitch, so general fixed wing aircraft using the same pitch labeled on the propeller of the diameter and the size of the pitch (mostly in the unit in inches), and in order to facilitate the appropriate engine systems. The vast majority of fixed pitch of helicopter blade is generally designed for a certain level of customization, so only indicate the diameter. Variable pitch helicopter can be very easily by measuring the Angle of attack of the blade Angle (wind) size to reflect the size of the pitch, and change.
hover
Hovering helicopter is peculiar to a way of flight is also the charm of helicopter flight! Just as its name implies is almost still stay in the air of a helicopter in height, which can accomplish common fixed wing aircraft was unable to complete the task! For beginner friends must begin from hovering flight of practice, because of the helicopter takeoff, landing, and other action is the beginning and end of the flight need to first enter the hovering flight status. So the hover became the base of helicopter flight practice subject!
paddle
Refers to two or more than paddle blade when rotating, are not at the same rotating plane held high! Blade tip like with open mouth of the scissors. Paddle is due to two or more different cause of blade pitch (lift). As long as all the tip of it with a different mark and with one of them as a benchmark, then observe the other oar the rotation is located in the top or bottom of the benchmark blade, can the other oar pitch (Angle of attack) are fine-tuned to watch again, such as observation held high two rotary surface which is eliminate the OARS. Double-screw can cause strong vibration, is must be eliminated!
gyroscope
Gyroscope is used to balance the direction of the helicopter, like fixed wing of the rudder. It can automatically control the helicopter in the transmitter was given direction instruction, keeping the original direction! Because it is a tiny devices with high sensitive sensor and highly automated, so its price is relatively high.
The spin
Spin is the body rotate 360 degrees centered on the propeller shaft. If there is a spin, so there are two possible. One, high-speed rotating to the left or right, the rudder no role, is the reverse, gyroscope swappable gyroscope reverse switch on the body. If not reverse switch, can be done by reverse installation fixed gyroscope; Two, head to the left (main blade clockwise models) slower spin.
Electronic governor
Electric helicopter power is provided by all kinds of motor, the power output size is determined by the rotation speed of the motor, and the speed of the motor is controlled by the electronic governor. RC model control steps are given as follows: the discretion of the transmitter throttle position through radio signals by plane receiver to receive after decoding, transmitted to a in the gas channel receiver on the socket electronic governor 3 core signal input, governor according to signal to determine the speed at the other end that how much power to the motor of electric supply distribution, to have the function of adjusting speed of the motor. We can put the governor simple as an adjustable resistor (actually more complicated).
I hope this help the novice to quick mastery skills to play model planes and more know the model helicopter,play it better.

Remote Control Helicopter Flying Skills

Do you still remember you play the rc helicopter at first? Now I want to  introduce some tips for the new hand to do it better.

RC Helicopter
First, the novice generally starts from the entry-helicopter. Coaxial sculls helicopter 3 channel and 3.5 channel is generally classified as a toy helicopter, the operation is very simple, easy to control, adults and children can play. Model level is generally divided into 4-channel and 6 -channel. Some friends may not know what is meant of channel, in fact, as long as you know, the more the number of channels means that more aircraft can play tricks on the line, the general novice four- sufficient.
Secondly, which is better for the oars and sculls. 4 channel helicopter generally have oars and sculls, because the different structure of the helicopter, of course, control the degree of difficulty is also different, in general, difficult to control oars, sculls easier, but now on the market mainstream are single paddle, especially if you want to play 6-channel, then a single paddle is preferred, if you just want to play, then sculls more appropriate.
Finally, the novice choose the model helicopter. If the entry-level, four-channel sculls nine eagles have several okay, of course, veterans feel boring, sculls did not challenge, try a single paddle it.
The note for the novice:
Remote control helicopter is not a toy, it 's a real helicopter flying with the same principle. Novice in the operation must first do the following:
1. Skilled and remote control functions to keep in mind the role of each of the operating lever with the fine-tuning.
2. Before departure to check whether your remote control battery into the battery and determines the adequacy of the helicopter, spacious venue choice to avoid the crowd.
3. Open the remote control power to check the power indicator ( light ) and to determine the right control lever ( throttle ) below the most. Then turn on the helicopter fuselage power ( pay attention to do not oparet the remote immediately after the power is turned on operating the remote control, the plane does not move for about 5 seconds, to ensure normal detection gyro lock.
4. First stop about 3 meters away from the helicopter 's distance training, and to ensure alignment of your helicopter tail (if the helicopter in front of your nose, your operation is the reverse ). Slowly push the throttle lever to let the helicopter propellers spin up, high-speed rotation of the propeller driven lift helicopter slowly rises, not the beginning of the operation the helicopter ground higher than one meter distance from the time fly, learning to control the direction of flight of the helicopter in the process. If it appears to be slowly losing control when the throttle lever to pull down the aircraft slowly to the ground.
5. If you want to practice the process is more stable, you can use the remote control helicopter training aircraft, training aircraft can effectively reduce the loss rate of the crashes during practice remote control helicopter, as well as help you learn as quickly as possible remote control helicopter flying skills.
6. Remote control helicopter in practice often remain completely parallel with the ground, showing the landing attitude perpendicular to the ground, so that the body slightly forward when landing approach glide landing , the tail of the first aircraft to avoid falling.

RC Helicopter
RC Helicopters basic structural features:
1. the front hood of the chassis for easy commissioning and maintenance.
2. six-way remote control receiver system, remote distance, if you want to play fixed wing, you can add a receiver, and achieve a controlled multi-value 3,3800 KV brushless motor, 25A brushless electronic speed controller, power more full.
4. piezoelectric gyroscope, better performance, stable flight, so you handy.
5. 120 degrees ECCPM control system, plus four high-performance digital servo, more responsive, more precise movements, can complete a simple 3D stunts.
6. 450 class helicopter, the structure is relatively complex and need to have some basic debugging maintenance or flying around with a certain flight experience led by the Friends of the lower die before flight experience.
7. large-capacity battery, longer flight time.
8. except for the remote control switch to achieve aerobatic stunts, adjustable pitch switch, gyro lock switch, sensitivity switch, the coach switch, it also can simulate functions.
9. in addition to the above features, the remote control right hand throttle interchangeable, applies more broadly.
That is what i want introduce to you, hope it can help you to play it better.

Beginners Tips to Helicopters

Here are some quick tips for beginners to RC Helicopters:
RC Helicopter
1.Always hold your blade grips tightly when you start your helicopter. If the engine starts at a higher rpm than you expect and you don't have a hold of it right away you may not be able to stop it. This can happen if you forget to reconnect the throttle link after maintenance or forget to turn the rx on.
2.If you do start your engine and it is near full power the first thing you want to do is pull the fuel line off the carb, then kill the throttle on the tx. You want to get the RPM's down asap to avoid damaging the clutch liner.
3.If you have a radio with a lot of switches, make it so that when you start your engine all the switches be one direction. For example, when all my switches are flipped back / up and the throttle is all the way down, my helicopter is ready to be started.
4.Always tighten / check the mission critical screws before you fly, especially the ones that control the tail.
5.Be very careful with those damn e-rings, or they may either fly across the room or drop into the heli and disappear for ever.
6.When you crash, inventory your heli and make sure you picked up all the pieces, because they're expensive as hell and you can never buy one part of a set.
7.Tilt the heli back after each flight to let the oil pond out of the muffler base, or it may end up in the seat of your car.
8.Make sure your throttle linkages are secure and set to idle before starting your engine, or it may try and get you!
9.If you have one of those short glow starters, don't forget to take it off after you start the engine. Those things get hot when you try and remove them later, and the battery dies too, so that's your last flight if you forget. I tied a plastic ribbon to mine, so that I could see it hanging down if I forgot. I think I need a bigger ribbon though.
10.Those foam blade holders that cost 3.50 aren't just to keep the blades from rotating all over, they preserve the life of those mixing levers connected above the mast, which otherwise get "stretched" out and cause slop
11.Don't forget to put the frequency crystal back into the tx after you've been using it with the CSM Simulator,(since the tx batteries last 10 times longer without the crystal installed) it's a real drag to go to the site and just as you're ready to start-er-up you notice you don't have a crystal in your tx.
12.Secure the Rx's frequency crystal with some tape. It's not unheard of this crystal backing out from vibrations causing loss of control.
13.Speaking of using the CSM simulator: if you use a different flight mode with your tx when playing the sim, don't forget to switch back to the "real-world" model before you try and fly!
14.If you're using the CSM HH gyro (and some others that work the same) you need to turn on the tx before the receiver or the gyro will not activate!
15.If you notice slop in the tail that didn't used to be there, land and find out why it's there now, or you may find yourself practicing a pirouetting autorotation.
16.Read the WHOLE manual, just because it looks done doesn't mean it will keep flying for long.
RC Helicopter
17.Less lock-tite is more. Don't get the screws all dripping with goo!
18.When the machine shakes very hard, and the blades appear to be balanced, check to see if the clutch shoes didn't snap off, or that the blade grips are not too tight and other things like that.
19.When you have a bearing or something that needs to go into or onto something else, but it won't slide on, consider heating the outside thing and or cooling the inside thing. The cold will make it contract and heat make expand.
20.If you get shakes really bad with training gear on and you're sure your blades are balanced and shafts straight, try chaning the length of the training gear. There are a few things that will affect the resonance frequency of your helicopter: 1)Weight and weight placement 2)Size and lengths 3)RPM 4)Shape. So when in doubt, change one of those variables and see what happens.
21.When you are flying with wind, remember that you'll need more power on the down-wind turn (when the wind becomes with you) because while it may look like you have forward flight, really you are just hovering. Hovering takes a LOT more power than forward flight which benifits from transitional lift, so be prepared for it to sink faster than usual in a turn with no wind.
22.Be sure to read through the "Crash Log" on this web site, it will give you an idea about what kinds of things cause crashes so you can look out and try to avoid doing the same things that others did.
i hope this can help you.

Blue Esky Big Coco Lama RC Helicopter for Outdoor RC Flying

Here is a world of Rc Helicopter. This can be the huge version of the famous TWF Esky 4 channels coaxial helicopter using the latest 2.4Ghz!
Blue Esky Big Coco Lama RC Helicopter
This is the huge version of the famous TWF Esky 4 channels coaxial helicopter with the latest 2.4Ghz! Include EVERYTHING TO FLY! Outdoor flight radio controlled helicopter. Great power against wind. Super stable. You will be amazed at how EASY it is to fly a 2.4Ghz 4-channel rc helicopter.
The Esky Big CoCo Lama is a much larger sized 4 channel helicopter designed to be flown outdoors. The product includes the helicopter,transmitter, charger, extra set of main blades, LiPo battery, and 8 x AABatteries for the remote. The RC helicopter is completely ready to fly outof box!Binding for RC System of each model has been completed in factory,without needing to debug again.
2.4G transmitter wil twinkle for 3 seconds, which indicates thattransmitter is sending code binding information. After 3 seconds, thetwinkling 2.4Gtransmitter indicator becomes solid, indicating thatsending the channel data. Then connect the 4in 1 mix controller, observethe 4 in 1 mix controller, 2.4G transmitter indicator twinkles two timesand gets solid, which indicates that the reception of the channel data issuccessful and are ready to fly. Turn on the transmitter and power on thehelicopter. LED indicator of 4 in 1 mix controller go out after twinklingtwo times, indicating that binding is failing and need to unbind firstly andrebind.Power on the transmitter, indicator twinkles 50times within 3seconds of binding period, the indicator get solid after the binding.(Please note that in the process of binding, first connect the or 4 in 1 mixcontroller before powering on the transmitter ).

Designing & Building a Rapid Removal Micro Model Airplane Two




Rapid Removal Micro Model Airplane
Last time we talk about making landing gear, now we continue to introduce the airplane.
5, the production wing connecting frame
1 ) Cut the connecting frame parts
First with a laser to draw graphics on the 0.6mm CCL, then with electricity grind and 1.05mm cutter cutting( Note electric grinding cutting speed can not be too fast), and finally with ferric chloride to remove the copper on the CCL .
2) prepare other parts
Prepare two carbon rods 3, 2 root shrinkable tube two, 2 roots heat shrink tubing three (half cut), 4 heat-shrinkable tube four(half cut).
3) assembly
The main method is to use heat-shrinkable tube positioning and fixation point 502 glue. Specific steps: First, assemble 0.8mm carbon rod and link rack pieces, revealing only the ends of the carbon rod 0.5mm, 502 glue fixed points, set in 0.8mm carbon rod is 4 length 6mm, 1mm in diameter shrink tube (used to install the main landing gear), penetrating the two ends of the heat-shrinkable tube to the 2mm link frame piece hole because of heat shrink tubing a little bit rough, 1.4mm carbon rod in the first set, with the hot air blowing to shrink then remove; carbon rod into the 1.4mm fuselage mounted on the frame piece 2mm linked heat shrinkable tube; finally install the landing gear, with a heat gun to shrink tube blowing stereotypes, then 0.4mm wire strapped carbon rod cross gear and a fixed point at 502 glue (be careful not to let the glue flow 1.4mm carbon rod).
6, the production wing
There are six wing ribs, with four carbon rods 4 are worn together. First with 502 glue to secure the ends of the ribs, and then adjust the middle four ribs location (note the middle two distance 50mm), and then fixed with 502 glue all connections. Next, with the former making balsa wing trailing edge, and they are polished smooth; finally press from the back, from the bottom of the order posted tissue paper.
7, making the lock - lock function is fixed wing.
Rapid Removal Micro Model Airplane
8, assembly
Assembling the wing and tail connecting frame, paper tape tail bonded together and connected frame; locking the wing with fixed wing connections shelves. To adjust the horizontal tail wing is connected to the reference frame to keep the wings level after its installed power system and a fixed point on the 502 glue, and finally attach the battery and micro receiver. Check the center of gravity is appropriate to change the battery and connect the wing rack position can be adjusted if inappropriate.
Third, the test
Because outdoor wind, so I chose an empty factory test, although this model aircraft very quickly on the ground roll, it is difficult to take off. Analyze the reasons may be two things: First, with respect to such a small size, the model is too heavy, and second, there is a lot easier to take the air wing skin tissue paper pores, resulting in significantly reduced lift.
Fourth, improve
For test exposure, I developed a modified program: 1, remove the carbon rod under the wing and trailing edges of the beam; 2, wing skins to change with plastic wrap; 3, horizontal wing without electromagnetic rudder; 4, landing gear 1mm diameter 0.6mm diameter carbon rod into the carbon rod.
Specifically:
1, the transformation of the wing
Remove the wing tissue paper, glued over the place there will be some glitches, can be roasted over the fire carefully (note not a big fire). Edge of light wood, carefully took off under the wing trailing edge of the beam and the carbon rod is removed after removing the wing and then put a light wood stick back (wing will deform); would cling film to start laying on a flat desktop , with a ruler and a knife to cut the upper end aligned and glued to the rear edge of the wing light wood, and then from the rear to the front, top to bottom tighten the wing surface covered with plastic wrap, in the wing trailing edge with plastic fixed, then wrap with plastic parts wingtip fixed; finally with polyester thread sewing clothes will be pulled into a curved wing, on the line.
2), the replacement of the carbon rod
Need to replace the wings connecting frame carbon rod and landing gear carbon rod. Replacing the same process and the installation process.
3) improve the horizontal tail and tail landing gear
Increase the horizontal tail, the rear edge slightly upturned installation; tail landing gear replaced with a diameter of 0.5mm wire.
After transformation test again and found a lot slower roll model, so changed to throw off by hand. The next test is successful, the performance of the aircraft than the original model aircraft significantly improved. I believe this model plane there is room for improvement, look forward to making a better miniature model airplanes.
This is what I made model airplanes, I hope you like it. and if you want to learn more information about the RC airplanes, you can go rctopshop.

Building F7U EP Scale Model Airplane two

Skin and assembly models
Five parts produced, after carefully polished smooth with fine sandpaper, you can skin of the wing and vertical tail. I used thin copy paper, glue it to Mongolia after the surface of the part, you can increase the strength of the foam surface, but also free to paint with paint on it.
The whole machine can be assembled wings and tail skin after. Note that the forward fuselage assembly mounted in the rear fuselage of the first motor frame fixed. Motor frame with thin plywood production, assembly of the fuselage to the rear of the fuselage glue pressed "solid core" inside. Motors do not add installation angle in any direction, if you must change to achieve thrust line, you can use different thicknesses of rubber gasket on the motor bracket to change the angle of deflection.
Adhesive foam, I tend to use white latex, although the drying time is very long, but use it to foam bonding interface strength and the strength of the surrounding material not only has a good consistency, but also has a certain flexibility. When damaged model, interface is not easily broken. Note: When the adhesive area is large, without adequate drying time, do not think outside the glue dries on the line. When I made this model aircraft, with real dried for about 24 hours.
RC Airplane
Plane model aircraft of paper skin is easy to coating for model fans, Friends of the majority of the mold can enjoy the level of play to their paintings to decorate the love machine. By real aircraft painting, the surface should be gray, light gray lower surfaces, to a certain extent, is a protective color - deep back, abdomen shallow, the opponent in the air is not easy to distinguish. And when we manipulate the model you need to clear to see it flying in the air is very bad. To this end, I used the end of white, badge, ID, etc. are modeled on the color of the real machine, and then draw a thin line cockpit, skin lines, rivets, good results.
The characteristics of the model test
The model of no horizontal tail is more accuratek, because the pitch is not easy to adjust the balance. Therefore, the test must be checked before the formation throughout the body structure and symmetry; to ensure that the center of gravity position ( before and after adjustment methods available mobile battery ) 1 /4 of the front center of the chord; sides of the aileron should also upturned 3 ~ 4mm. After adjusting the position of the center of gravity, the need to throw the first pitch hand balancing test method for testing the model.
According to experience, found a slightly higher than the surrounding ground, open the remote control, the model is powered from a high level to be cast out, and to observe its flight, because of the high standing position, when the model appear the serious situation of " head light "and" heavy head ", you can use the remote control to the availability of its smooth landing, and will not break. If the test found throwing hand model "first light " and " top-heavy ", but in line drawings mark the position of the center of gravity, do not adjust the center position, but should modify the aileron height, or use the remote control to fine-tune the pitch channel to compensate. If you need to adjust the amount of large, fine-tuning the remote control has been insufficient to compensate, you should directly extend or shorten the length of the cabin Rack .
Hand throwing a preliminary test of the model after adjusting,carryong a experiment of a power level flight: to open a small force, thowing the model level by hand, obser model can maintain some level flight or decreased. After level flight tests, to know what the two ailerons should be adjusted to the position, then the method can be used to adjust the length of the cabin Rack. This small power level flight can be adjusted to the remote location of the center position. This test even the most difficult hurdle passed, later large powered flight would not repeat when adjusted.
RC Airplane
This frame impetus foam model aircraft, flight weighs less than 300 grams, more suitable for young people making and flying. Relatively high aircraft propeller at the front of the model aircraft safety performance, even during the flight or landing hit people or things, there will not be much damage. I made model airplanes have a better grasp of the fuselage, very smooth take-off and landing; two large vertical tail to make the flight attitude particularly stable. Then according to the proportion of different sizes made several aircraft model aircraft, small wingspan of less than 400mm, not much bigger than the remote control, because of the relatively large cell stack weight, wing loading close 30g/dm2, is slightly larger produced using fiberglass fuselage, and the electric power system uses a ducted propeller, as the real higher.
Finally, to remind everyone that will produce chlorine and other harmful substances and processing with electric wire foam pile, though rarely, it should be taken to avoid inhalation, in order not to affect health. I used the kitchen exhaust hoods and fans methods harmful gases blown away.
If you are interested, you can also try to try. Good luck.
