World-class RC helicopter flyer Scott Gray designed the latest addition to the Vibe family of remote control helicopters. This range of RC helicopters is the best offering in ultimate aggression in flight performance. This RC helicopter has been designed to withstand the stress of extreme aerobatic and 3D maneuvers, even those that have yet to be imagined. It is features like oversized tail and main shafts, the oversized Sprag autorotation clutch and 7mm spindle shaft that make this remote control helicopter adaptable to handling the most aggressive maneuvers. In addition to this a robust split gear constant-driven tail rotor and a lightweight, rigid structural design make the Vibe 90 SG an unbeatable choice for heli pilots who want to push 3D performance beyond the edge. If you have been waiting and looking for RC helicopter design which has unlimited flight performance with the reliability and the durability to handle the most demanding aerobatics then this model is your dream come true. Your wait is over once you take the controls of the Vibe 90 SG; you’ll know your wait was worth it.



This RC helicopter kit model has fully tunable hi-cyclic head for extreme cyclic response in a 120/140 CCPM system. The driven tail of this remote control helicopter is bearing supported with aluminum shaft. The robust Sprag autorotation clutch and push-pull cyclic linkage is another plus in the design of this remote control helicopter. High efficiency two-piece fan shroud has been added in the features of this RC helicopter. Flybar cage standard, and easily removed, vibration-isolated tank add convenience to this amazing design. To list some other features of this remote control helicopter is dual radial, single thrust tail blade grips, dual yoke T/R actuator, and also includes high-quality FRP fiberglass pre-painted canopy. All-new rotor head system with ultra-rigid dampening is one of the many other plus features already mentioned of this new design. Highly configurable rotor head settings, i-Beam high rigidity frame assembly, oversized main and tail drive transmissions, self-aligning, easy to maintain engine mount system make this amazing design just more amazing and make it stand out as a great addition RC helicopters.


Vibe 50 3D Pro Helicopter Kit JRP9550 was designed to provide outrageous 3D flight, but in a comparatively smaller and more affordable package.

The flight of Vibe 50 is light and responsive. The stock paddles make the flip rate go crazy; it is so fast, that dial might need to be brought down a bit. The hover of the model is rock solid.

Vibe .50 is a remote control helicopter that screams performance. The sleek narrow-profile of this RC helicopter reduces drag for smoother, faster backward flight. Dual-stacked frame creates an exceptionally rigid structure for this model which is vital for mind-bending maneuvers. The 120/140 CCPM is so vital for precise handling of RC helicopters. The flying qualities of this model are a superb combination of precision and pizzazz. And the engine gear ration is optimized to allow the engines to develop and gain on great horsepower.

JR Airskipper 50 3D RC Helicopter Kit JRP9016 is the intermediate to advanced 3D Heli pilot. It is a model looking for an out of the box, top-of-the-line 50 size machine. This remote control helicopter kit come loaded with all kinds of standard features which are only available as aftermarket options on others. Its split-gear constant drive tail rotor allows for full 3D tail control during auto-rotation, while also improving backward flight performance in this model of remote control helicopters. Another impressive aspect of this series of RC helicopters is that it can be built with either electronic CCPM or mechanical (MPM) swash mixing. A touch of class has been added by including FRP canopy. This design of remote control helicopter has an extensive list of advanced mechanical and engineering features. The stacked fiberglass mainframes have been added to the model so they absorb vibration and increase rigidity. CNC machined aluminum high precision gearing ensure precision in the movements of these RC helicopters. Ball bearing auto-rotation housings, metal blade grips with 6mm spindle shafts, and belt-driven tail rotors are features that make this design a good bargain. Large 420cc fuel tank and open tail gear case are additions that make this model a good case for easy maintenance.

Mini RC Helicopters

As the technology is advancing so the most complicated things which we have never thought of will be available in smaller sizes are now available in unbelievable sizes. Same is the case with RC Helicopters, who would have thought 10 years ago that the one of the most complicated machines like helicopter can shrink into the size of just few inches? Mini RC (radio/ remote controlled) helicopters are the model helicopters which are very small in size. There are RC helicopters even called micro rc helicopters because they are even smaller than the mini ones and they are also known as spy flies as they are used as micro bots in the government aided missions. These very small ones are not available for sale to general public but mini rc helicopters are. The models available for general public are slightly bigger than the micro bots. They are mostly palm sized or slightly bigger than that. These are although available in both gasoline or nitrogen engines and electric servo motors but electrical helicopters are more preferred by buyers now a day. These mini electrical radio controlled helicopters are preferred because they are cheaper than the gasoline engine ones and they, as compared to gasoline engine, are less noisy and produce less harmful waste.

Recently China has made some great mini radio controlled helicopters' designs that are really very cheap and affordable. These China made mini electric radio controlled helicopters have now penetrated the world market and so other manufacturers are facing a big competition. The China made mini RC helicopters are only available with a 3 channel radio transmitter and these models have lesser options than the 4, 5 or 6 channel radio controlled transmitter models but on the other hand if we see they are almost half the price of American or European made models therefore people who cannot afford to have a 4 channel electric radio controlled helicopter are attracted towards these Chinese designs and the market for these cheaper models is very big as the demand for these models is very high.
Mini RC helicopters are usually designed for indoor flights as they cannot bear the air pressure outside. These are mostly made up of light weight plastic and small servos which serve as their engine. These are generally very quiet; they just produce a bee like buzz sound while flying in the room. These can fly more than just the usual electric RC helicopters. These mini model helicopters have the flight time of about 30 to 40 minutes.


Though being very complicated in mechanism these mini rc helicopters are easier to control and the radio transmitter designed for them is much more simpler than that of a 6 channel radio transmitter. Latest discovery in the mini RC helicopters include the infrared technology. The model helicopter receives signals from an infrared remote transmitter and it works just like the remote of a normal television or a DVD player. Some of these mini radio controlled helicopters are made of metal body and gasoline or nitro engine which are perfect for outdoor flights as they have a great ability to sustain high and low wind pressures because of their weight even the metal bodied mini RC helicopters with electric servo motors are suitable for outdoor flights.
Some of these outstanding features of the new designs of mini RC helicopters have made them a centre of attraction for the buyers and therefore recently a trend of higher sales of these models is observed. If you want to have a great hobby for your past time or just want to have a little fun in your leisure time, mini RC helicopters are made to give you best value for your money and you will have it with you for long time because these mono rc helicopters are almost maintenance free.

Four Wings Rc Helicopter Or "What is a quadrocopter"?

There's always something new under the sun! You never stop learning and that's a good thing. For several years there has been a never-seen kind of models: the quadrocopters. This is a kind Helicopter or VTOL aircraft with four propellers arranged crosswise, pointing upward.

The operating principle
The principle is simple and has even been successfully implemented in the 1920s in large aircraft. Together generate the propeller (or rotors) enough thrust to keep the aircraft in the air. Now is crossed pairs changed the thrust of the rotors, will also change the air movement. We can provide at normal Plane Pitch, roll and yaw. And when the thrust of all four rotors is changed uniformly rise or even fall. All we need to fly!

Changed the thrust is not as for RC Helicopter via a swash plate, but mostly by the simple change of speed. More speed is equal to more power, less speed means less thrust. This makes the mechanism very simple.

The problem in the past
But the structure is so simple, so complicated is the maintenance of stable attitude. Because such a device has no natural stability. Any small disturbance - by a gust, for instance - must always be controlled by hand. But that can hold no pilot in the long run, even if he could always respond quickly enough. Therefore, it was also the original from the 20s is not developed.

The solution: computer :-)
But today we have the little helpers are available: the computer! So untenable a few tinkerers built into the simple mechanics, which is only from four engines with four controllers and three piezo gyro (one for each axis, one for the recognition of the position change) - a microprocessor that compensates for any changes in position immediately by influencing the thrust of the rotors . What is not in itself stable in the air, by Computer . And the fellow that makes it faster and more accurate than a human ever can.

Modern RC Quadrocopter
Meanwhile there is this Quadrocopter to buy ready-made and they should also work really great! They are used except for fun, for example, for aerial photography. Together with a GPS receiver on board, they can even be positioned extremely accurately. And without that the pilot controls really, he just needs to enter the coordinates. Here we model flyers are apparently even more than the man carrying flying.

No wonder then that, unfortunately, unfortunately, the military gets something sharp. Apparently, many armies have such Quadrocopter already in their arsenal, whether it comes to spying or even by remote control to shoot people dead. Oh Jeez, because such a frenzy never end?

RC Helicopters for Beginners - What do you need?

Every beginning is difficult, they say. Is that because even for Rc Helicopters I say no! For since there is the coaxial helicopter, the start is really easy! I speak from experience, because I've done it and that's saying something

Coaxial Helicopter - For the first flight tests optimally
So easy, the normal small coax heli to fly are also, they have one major drawback: they are extremely sensitive to wind and can be flown only in absolute calm outside of enclosed spaces. Even the slightest breeze, they are aborted and are no longer against the wind. But this is quite sad, because very quickly want to complete the entry after the first successful hovering flights and one flight from the home garden.

For newcomers: The robbe Blue Arrow XL
Exactly what the makers have probably discovered in the home robbe and remedies created: the "Blue Arrow XL" is one coax, but who has already an adult size and can be flown in light winds. Mind in light winds! The "Blue Arrow XL" robbe would be my recommendation for the absolute beginner who wants to breathe without assistance in the RC-Helifliegen in, but is not sure whether he stays with the hobby.

We must be aware that is probably that the coaxial helicopter, no matter how big or small they are, the more quickly impede learning progress, just because they are so stable in the air. Because soon we want to hover as a helicopter pilot more than one: we want to fly around, doing aerial work, gymnastics and a little faster and maybe even fly in aerobatic or 3D flying aboard at all. All this makes a coax heli but no longer, our faithful companion will then get bored.

For beginners with little more experience
If we remain so in the matter quickly, according to the desire for more. More means that we need to define a helicopter at full pitch and tail rotor control. The choice is difficult, because the offer is almost unmanageable. A rule of thumb: do not buy too small! There are tiny with less than 50cm diameter rotor, but they are usually very difficult to control, and again as the wind-sensitive coaxial helicopters.

From about 70cm diameter rotor to the real fun begins. The larger the rotor diameter and thus the whole helicopter, the better it will fly. However, we should also keep in mind the cost: the larger the heavier, more batteries, we need the more expensive it becomes.

If I write battery occurs to me that I forgot to mention that this year actually only electric helicopters are contemporary. Only in the most severe extremes in terms of aerobatics or gigantic rotor diameter of 1.60 m across are for glow - yet - widely used. Otherwise colleague has conquered the electric field!

Just fine, I think the helicopters of the 450cc class with a rotor diameter of about 70cm! They are already big enough to fly well, to be transported but also small enough to reasonably priced and well and have a quite substantial depending on the pattern aerobatic potential! In any case, certainly more than I will ever bring about. My favorites are the "T-Rex 450" Align in the sale of the robbe or "Beam E4" from the USA. If there must be something bigger then like the "Logo 400" Mikado. But he has had a rotor diameter of 100cm and every inch is more expensive, unfortunately, more money.

What I like about the somewhat larger non-coaxial helicopters particularly well, beautiful to look at the possibility of hulls to the mechanics is to build around. Then not just any old broomstick flying through the air with a hood, but a "Hughes 500" or "Bell UH-1D" or otherwise a fine scale model. With the willing that is much more fun. Some time ago I'm on a flight day one, "BO 105" may admire as a rescue helicopter, which was of enormous size and had lots of special features. Because you could settle with a winch to the "emergency" or illuminate with searchlights, the "crash site". Since the child laughs in man!

Spare Parts for RC Helicopter
What appears to me very important is the question of spare parts. How does it look with care in two, three or four years? If I'm looking for a no-name product, decide what seems favorable at first glance, my fine and helicopters will need them later just in case new items, I get that later as well? This is a great argument for established brands and not the only reason I would choose me now for the T-Rex 450th

Trainer cord helps in the beginning
What is true for all non-coaxial helicopter, the principle is not to try it alone! An experienced helicopter pilot you should set the new helicopters, and best accompanied by teacher-pupil cable, the first hop. Otherwise you would be so overwhelmed that is, without knowledge of a new flight, not yet perfectly adjusted helicopter to lift into the air! One always has to be given: either you can fly or the aircraft is eingetrimmt!

Flight Simulators
Oh, and a good RC simulator for the PC has already prevented many a costly break! This is a good investment, even if a good simulator costs as much as a small helicopter. Even Ruediger, who is an accomplished helicopter pilot exercise under the sun, still busy with it. Anyway - so I confirmed also an experienced helicopter pilots - is the ongoing training, the perpetual exercise of the keys to success!

Conclusion and my tip:
1st Start with a simulator
2.Go if you want to fly via helicopter to a great little coax
3rd and then - or immediately after a 450 helicopter simulator.
