Radio Control Helicopters

Author: inroad
Helicopters are great fun, they can be very easy to fly, and anyone can be taught to fly them. The way to start is just buy one of the simple coaxial models available at drug stores Wal-Mart or online. They fly themselves; basically, the twin rotors on the coaxial system are designed to do all the controlling forward backward up and down.
Then comes the real helicopters, fly bars or flybarless heads. Where, you have to control everything. These machines come with all the controls that are available on a full-scale helicopter, but they are available in trainers. And of course as always, one starts with a trainer. The learning curve on this type of helicopter is much steeper, but it can be done.
This is the type of Radio control helicopter that is...
used in 3D scale completion. A person can buy a competitive helicopter and set it up as a trainer. With upgrades and changes in settings and programs use the same machine for 3D.
In order to learn to fly this type of helicopter properly, it is most beneficial to have an instructor, most clubs have helicopter instructors. You will not need an instructor for the original coaxial helicopter that you started with. But when it comes to flying one of our more complicated helicopters. But you will need instruction, I also recommend that that you purchase flight simulator and use it regularly every day. There is no substitution for practice. We have some of the better simulators on our listing of Amazon products. My personal preference is the Phoenix model. Once you buy it there is no more to buy. Every time you turn on the Internet, it will go search for any updates and install them.
When you have learned to fly a helicopter, there are many choices for you to follow. Aerobatics is the most popular and model helicopters are capable of doing many more manoeuvres than a full-scale helicopter. It is really quite breathtaking to watch. There is of course scale, my personal favourite of all modeling forms. It is usually started with a good solid airframe with a scale body attached to it. Paint and weather them and learn to fly them in a scale like manner.
You will find model helicopters are a very exciting form of radio control airplane. They are getting more popular every day and that means a better selection and better prices.
