Like the video a lot saving up the money to get one have the blade230s . This helicopter I will add to my collection thank you for your time and videos fly safe 😊
I have been watching your vid countless of times when I can’t fly mine on windy or stormy days, but don’t think I left a comment. Great vid and thanks for sharing looking forward to more vids. I got the orange one, but the yellow is also awesome! I’ve posted day and night flights.
Hi Captain Drone. So I think I've watched on your videos on the FWL450 V3. So much so I bought one and it just arrived. Looking forward to getting it up to the field this weekend, weather permitting as I'm in Ireland, rain and more rain. Might I ask is it ready to fly out of the box? Will it go inverted it I go 30 ft + etc. on the flick of a switch like in the videos or do I need to programme it? Also I noticed the batteries I got were BT5000-74 with 5000 mAh and with the charger supplied its taking 8 hours just to get up to 75% charged. Am I doing something wrong here, please be patient I'm a newbie and still learning and looking forward to your next review. Kr, Marc.
@@marctron100 Out of the box, it flies in GPS and Manual mode, but not inverted. After you have flown it for awhile, you can attach the USB cable to the flight controller and then in the software (you download from FLY WING) you can enable inverted mode. The reason your charge is taking so long is because for the price, you certainly do not get an RC Hobby charger. People in the RC hobby that run RC Cars, Boats, Planes, FPV Drones, Helicopters all own one or more RC Chargers. If you wish to charge up a battery in under an hour you'll need one (I've reviewed plenty), but make sure you understand how to use one (I have a video on how to do just that).
I've been waiting for this heli for twenty years having crashed many times in the past and never really getting to grips flying them. I was wondering what the spares situation is because as idiot proof this seems I'm sure I would crash eventualy? Thanks for the video.
I have never been interested in the helicopters but your review on that chopper made me think I might like that. I'm 80 yrs old and too busted up to check my fence lines and look for strays on my cutting horse. I use my drones to do it now. I wonder if that might make a better camera platform. Do you!! Any input on that and range?? Source n price?? Thanks I bought the SJRC s F 11 pro 3,000 meter drone because of your review. Haven't flown it yet cause of big snow up here above the snowline in NE wash state. Dandahermit. Aren't you in Canada?? Dandahermit
I have 2 fw450 one is version 2 and the other is 2.5 I absolutely love them awesome helicopters. I’m really liking the canopy on the v3. But I think the belt drive is a quieter smoother drive system. Anyway I’m gonna definitely buy a v3 then I’ll have 3 of them. Lol 👍👍👍👍👍
Hi Captain Drone. Thanks for all your hard work getting these videos out to us. You ALWAYS give valuable info! I did the Pledge thing for this Heli and finally got it yesterday. I noticed my battery was a little stronger than yours. I got the 4S 14.8V 74Wh 5000mAh Battery with mine. Now I am trying to find a second, maybe even a thrid battery and have looked on RC Going, Banggood and few other places and cannot find one. Do you have a suggestion of a place to find one?
Sorry, just saw your comment. I buy many of my batteries off of AMAZON. Just type in the number of cells and the connector you want. The dimensions are then also shown. If you find the right sized battery but with the wrong connector, then again on AMAZON you can find the correct in between connector.
hi I love your channel you bring us the latest & greatest gadgets in flying there’s only one thing I’m jealous about & that is why you folks have some nice decent SNOW not like us in the south east of England 🇬🇧 but thanks again for another great RUclips video ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Great-looking helicopter looks like it Flys very smooth I had a helicopter probably 20 years ago it required some skill to fly it nothing like today's products your footage and review was great as usual 👍
Hi steve great video, glad you guys have all the snow there instead of here in SW ontario LOL. Hey check out Alishanmao's you tube channel, he just did a review on this V3, apparently you can do tick tocks and all kind of 3D moves while in GPS mode, and aslo he said you can use 6 cell battery but be careful the ESC's and motors might heat up a bit. You might have seen it in the manual they gave you and it was just too snowy and cold out for you guys. Again great video and Jedi steve is a great heli pilot
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Your still great flyers. Watch his video on it all u do is flip a switch while in gps mode to do the 3d stunts. That is what they have done in v3.
I really enjoy your videos I have a sonic model baby ar wing and haven’t flew it in 2years almost I have the same radio as that one in this video is there anyway you can do a video how to set the radio up with it. My throttle is correct but left right up down is all backwards thank you if possible sir
You sure know how to have fun 😊 the best reviewer on RUclips always love watching your videos the problem is I want to buy everything you review my problem not yours stay warm
Sometimes when playing with the helicopter, it starts going up in the air without me telling you to go up in the air. Is that an indication that the battery is low. Sometimes I bring the helicopter back down and I recharge the battery and then it’s very responsive and it listens to me, but I’m only playing with it for seven minutes and all of a sudden it just starts elevating itself up in the air and I’m telling you to come down but it won’t listen. Is that an indication that the battery is dying
The helicopter is designed to go into return to home mode if the GPS shows a problem like having difficulty getting a solid fix. If it does this often then it means the GPS needs a compass calibration.
How do I get it calibrated. Thank you for the help also. I took it to one of Hobby Store, but they said they are not familiar with this morning so they could not help me. I am going to try another store to see if they can help. I am not sure how to do the calibration.
Hi Captain Drone. Enjoy your videos. With the version 3 do you need a laptop computer to program the Compas Calibration that is required on the version 2.5 before you fly?
So, if not made clear enough in the video, Jedi Steve & I flew this baby straight out of the box. I assembled it, tossed in a battery and away we flew. If you wish to hook it up to a computer than you can turn on additional features, set paramaters and even do a compass calibration if desired.
It comes with a 4S 5000 mAh battery & battery charger that gives you 20 mins of flight time. But you can use any battery you own that is 4S with an XT60 connector.
Hi Steve, eventually got my FlyWing 450 V3 🎉 very interested to see they have added the led viewing hole into the body that Jedi Steve suggested 👏 A quick question - is it possible to view battery status on the screen of the remote?? Thanks heaps for all your great content 👏
I’m only get 7 minutes before it’s stop listening and the 450 helicopter start elevating higher. I start holding the button forward to come back down and eventually after a few minutes, it will respond and start lowering slowly
Is this easier than the previous version whereby have to have a computer to program when doing compass calibration, an how much,the 450 red or white version 2 is like 500.00 by flywing
We flew this straight out of the box. The only thing we realized is that if you wish to fly INVERTED you have to turn that option on in the software. We did no compass calibration... it was as simple as turn everything on and fly.
@@kennywheelus6857 For the model I received, yes. In the past they had it turned on by default, but I guess some beginners crashed it way too often in that mode so they leave it off by default.
Is this Heli 880 or 700 mm long? I'm getting conflicting info. Thanks for the video BTW. And that snow is amazing. Where I live in central Victoria (Oz) we dont get snow at all, maybe the occasional hail. but it dows snow in the mountains of Victoria.
Yes, if you buy now (only 100 available for $499), you get it when it ships next month. It is not in stores yet, so stores like RC Going have no stock, but they will be one of the first stores to receive it. Of course the $499 pre-order price will not exist and the $799 price will replace it.
I know it gets old hearing, but if you want to learn heli’s do it on a sim (Realflight, phoenix?) When you want to get into the air, look at the blade line from eflite…they offer many different models in price, size, and skill level all intended to get you in the air and help you learn to stay there. They offer normalized controls, easily available spare parts at most decent local and online hobby shops. A all around better experience and product than what is in this review. Happy flying…cheers!
I'd recommend an omphobby m1 for a beginner. Even though this has GPS and lots of goodies, its really big and dangerous. Too many regulations on top for heavy UAVs. If you crash, it means lots of time fixing and very expensive. Just Trust me on the omphobby m1. Wish I'd have started with this years ago
Ray, yes it is super simple to fly due to the GPS tuning. If you have no skills other than flying a GPS drone like that from DJI, Autel or Hubsan, then this would be simple to fly. All beginners should always fly with the TAIL facing them and the NOSE pointing away so that the orientation of the joysticks is not confusing. When you get lost, just hit Return To Home and the Heli comes back to land. Now if you switch it to 3D Manual Mode, you will crash it because you need more of an FPV Drone background to fly in that mode so that your hand/eye coordination is top notch.
Great video, I relive that helli. I'm a beginner, went to the link wasn't sure which one to purchase. Looking for the RTF version, could you help please,that you.
The one listed at $499 should be the RTF. It should tell you what it comes with.... You should get the Heli, Remote (also called a Transmitter or Radio), Battery.
If you buy now, via the link, it is $499 (scroll down on right had side of kickstarter, there are only 100 available at this price). If you wait two weeks it will be $799.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 what is kickstarter no nothing about how that works are you garnenteed to receive it in April. A big question mark on that one.or if you pay now will you lose that 500 dollars if they decide not to build more?
@@123windyron kickstarter has probably been around for as long as you’ve been on the planet. This is how movies, businesses, inventions, musical careers, etc are funded. Yes you pay as if you’re buying, you then wait for the product to be released to the world, and then yours arrives. All details are on the site.
I am curious if using the programming app to update the v2 model would eliminate the cumbersome calibration dance needed on the v2? Any experience trying this?
@@scatteredparts296 I have had two V2 units and neither required a compass calibration and flew perfectly. Why exactly did you hook it up to the software? If you hook it up and you select compass calibration, then you need to be outdoors or else it will never be correct.
H! Is it true that gps helis like this doesnt tilt on the side while banking? Also can the gps be turned off so that it can fly like regular collective pitch helis?
I can't recall if the trim is via a menu system or button combination. The manual should be online as this radio has been in existence for a very long time.
I know it was only a matter of time before rc helicopters become easier to fly and using gps gyro etc to just hover with "no hands" , seeing this was the first that ive affirmed my thoughts and its great to see. Will this mean real helicopters will do the same in easier to control?
This just gives the pilot the option of flying the helicopter like a drone with precision movements. It works because the GPS unit and remote are well tuned.
In most countries there are no such thing as regulations for drones. The media made you think that. The regulations are normally for UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles over 249 grams). So if you fly an RC Drone, RC Helicopter, RC Plane, the regulations are all the same.
Excellent! A few questions: did you have to do the compas recalibrate, It has no stability mode then in 3D then, that's to bad, and did you download the newest firmware? Thank you.
Oh you may be too late if asking that, you see you can purchase them as of the date I made this video and the early bird price is $499. If you wait until these are in stock (early March) then the price is $799. Simply follow the link below the video and do the Kickstarter pre-order thing (look down right had side).
Yikes! You are missing the very obvious deal. If you click on the KICK STARTER link I posted, you can PRE-ORDER the helicopter for $499. If you wait until it is in stores then the price will be $799.
@CAPTAINDRONE798 well in my experience quick release any thing is often a bad thing if your referring to the tail boom I agree and mine has the lever like yours I was fully expecting the thumb screw but mine was a newer version 2.5 maybe I love mine it truly is a fun flyer It would seem the 3d nitro and electric heli pilots don't like thees much case in point Kevin Talbert

Hi thanks for video can I used v2 Radio to v3
I don’t see why not as a similar receiver is used.
I am curious if using the programming app to update the v2 model would eliminate the cumbersome calibration dance needed on the v2? Any experience trying this?
@@scatteredparts296 I have had two V2 units and neither required a compass calibration and flew perfectly. Why exactly did you hook it up to the software? If you hook it up and you select compass calibration, then you need to be outdoors or else it will never be correct.
Hey Brother, I know I am not the first person to ask, so here we go. That scrolling sign behind you, where did you get it? Love your content.

H! Is it true that gps helis like this doesnt tilt on the side while banking? Also can the gps be turned off so that it can fly like regular collective pitch helis?
Yes, if you leave it in stabilized mode the bank in turns is not that great. Yes, you can turn everything (stability) off and fly it in manual mode.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 I noticed in a video the heli banks more in att mode though i havent tried it yet
What are the dimensions of these battery please. Jamie
I've been looking at the radio. wonder why they didn't add trim buttons. I know it can be done, but a lot of fiddling while airbourne.
I can't recall if the trim is via a menu system or button combination. The manual should be online as this radio has been in existence for a very long time.
I know it was only a matter of time before rc helicopters become easier to fly and using gps gyro etc to just hover with "no hands" , seeing this was the first that ive affirmed my thoughts and its great to see. Will this mean real helicopters will do the same in easier to control?
This just gives the pilot the option of flying the helicopter like a drone with precision movements. It works because the GPS unit and remote are well tuned.
You can also fly a 3d heli with no hands. But not for a while
can you do a compass calibration im having a hard time and cant find any videos on this
It is really simple and videos exist on the FLY WING website
I finally got it.
I see this and I think, why are there so few fpv helicopters?
Just wondering if flying such a copter, the same rules and regulations apply as so you were flying a DJI Drone
In most countries there are no such thing as regulations for drones. The media made you think that. The regulations are normally for UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles over 249 grams). So if you fly an RC Drone, RC Helicopter, RC Plane, the regulations are all the same.
@CAPTAIN DRONE Thanks my friend for your reply, its like I thought any UAV over 250g. Keep the show going, I love it. Take care
Excellent! A few questions: did you have to do the compas recalibrate,
It has no stability mode then in 3D then, that's to bad, and did you download the newest firmware?
Thank you.
In this review we flew the helicopter straight out of the box... no calibrations, no software configurations, no updates, no compass calibration.
Just curious when these will be available to purchase
Oh you may be too late if asking that, you see you can purchase them as of the date I made this video and the early bird price is $499. If you wait until these are in stock (early March) then the price is $799. Simply follow the link below the video and do the Kickstarter pre-order thing (look down right had side).
Captain Drone: I don’t see this new model online, when is it available for sale, do you have any details?
Yikes! You are missing the very obvious deal. If you click on the KICK STARTER link I posted, you can PRE-ORDER the helicopter for $499. If you wait until it is in stores then the price will be $799.

Thanks Captain Drone. 👍
So is it better than v2 seems like it has all the same just a beefy head and no belt drive
The newest version (currently on the market) is the best as it has the removable quick release blades.
@CAPTAINDRONE798 well in my experience quick release any thing is often a bad thing if your referring to the tail boom I agree and mine has the lever like yours I was fully expecting the thumb screw but mine was a newer version 2.5 maybe I love mine it truly is a fun flyer It would seem the 3d nitro and electric heli pilots don't like thees much case in point Kevin Talbert
So happy to ear and seen this video ! Can you tell me how much for the complet kit like you show , in Canadian money ! She is so beautiful ! Nice video my friend ! 💙👍🚁
$499 US if you preorder at the Kickstart link I placed below the video. Next month it will be $799 US.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 I try to give a message to the link bellow ! It's not working ! I d'ont really know what to do, to get one ! Thank you to anwser me ! 👍
@@Mike-pb5bj Click on the link below the video then click on BACK THIS PROJECT and order your helicopter
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thank you my friend ! 💙👍
hi guys whats the price ? can I get from Bangladesh ?
I thought "remote" meant that it was tethered controlled? It is radio controlled. It is called a transmitter.
As long as other humans understand, that is all that counts.
Hi. Can ask where these can be purchased? Thanks
Click on th link that I placed in the video description. Then select the option to support the kickstarter launch, and then you can buy it for $499.
