#rc #heli #helicopter
I have this one myself, however, if you get a new one now as of Sep. 2022, I believe they come with plastic skids that are either yellow or blue depending on the canopy you choose. I have the blue one with the blue plastic skids. This, IMO, is a major improvement an why I think Fly Wing listens to customer base.
As cool looking as carbon skids are, they are fragile AF. The plastic/nylon one that I have an the newer versions are FAR better an will not crack or shatter on the lightest of harder landings. I've come down pretty hard a few times, an I'm on the original skids. I would have had to replace them each time with carbon, adding a lot of cost.
You know I can not get any of my helicopters to fly more than about a foot at my cabin which is 7000 above sea level so I guess they do have a certain height that they can fly in thin air. Love to see your repairs. You are the only one that I know of that does that on RUclips. I think I will someday get this copter and tell the wife it only cost $50.00. Part of the fun of the hobby is the repairs. Boy that one was like watching a movie.....happy sad happy sad fixing happy.
I hadn't heard that these heli's don't do so well at altitude. I suspect you could change the pitch and throttle curves to help.
I've built and flown 3D helis of every size and most brands. Everything from my Goblin 700 electric, my Avant Aurora nitro, the token Trex 450/500/600/700 to the tiny mCPX. I can tell you now, I don't consider this heli to be expensive. It looks like a great tool to learn to fly with. Simulators are great but nothing beats flying a heli in the wind and other real world conditions. I wish I'd had one of these to learn my orientations. Would have saved me thousands of dollars.
Wow, that is nuts. Thank you guys
Totally is!
Its bigger brother, the FW450 v2, is only a little bit more expensive so I've ordered one of those.
Cool!
Pretty awesome. The thing I love about helis though is how hard they are to fly and the satisfaction I get everytime I progress. Just getting to where I can comfortably fly my 330s without autoleveling and its real rewarding. This is impressive technology but I dont think its for me.
True!
Yeah! I was thinking the same thing it takes the challenge out of flying as nice as it is and it is nice It reminds me when I was a kid my brother and I found a way to get free games from a pinball machine Once we knew we could get free games the challenge was over and the game wasn't fun anymore I think I would rather have the blade 230S It' looks like an easy but a more challenging helicopter to fly I enjoyed you're video on the blade This has been a great Informative video thank you .
@@pepperandzip I think this heli would be good to learn basic orientation for a complete beginner. I learned on something cheaper. I got the blade 120s2 and beat the living crap out of it. You can crash and crash without breaking it. Went through several motors on that thing.
Mine came today
I've seen another review, and the manual confirms this, that shows when in Acro mode, you only have to flip the right stick quickly from centre to right, and back to the middle, to enter into 3D mode. You do the same manoeuvre again, to return the heli upright.
Maybe you have since discovered this, but I'm writing this having viewed the first 10mins of your video.
I haven't yet, thanks!
My made man!!! I love your dedication and enthusiasm .we have a lot of caching up to do .being im 48 growing up in 80 we had no computers very limited or no rc books only .ty god for progress 🙏 🙌 at list now got choice 😅 ty u very informative probably will buy now 👍 cool specially for the price. God bless you keep it coming 😅
Thanks! Glad you're here with us!
I wanted to mention . Not spoil the secret. Great job . Mr Phillips
Thanks ;)
Yes a correct replacement control horn is so important I can’t believe you did that and thought it would be okay. Helicopters are not to be rigged and you just hope it will work they are very dangerous man.
It's cool for the casual park flyer but I got into heli's cause it was something hard to work at.
True!!
This video came on effortlesly & automatically . Oh, never mind. I can afford to watch this. Looks just as nice as the Yellow & Flat Black canopy, thou. 👍
Nice!
Weather is nice till the wind blows!
Yeeees
I've been flying one of these for a few days now. The biggest problem that I found with this is that motor nut seems to strip every few flights. I just ordered 10 spares. Surely that thing could have been a more durable part. We had one let loose in mid flight and the wreck made so much dirt fly I expected to find a field of parts and not a salvageable heli. (It literally lawn-darted tail first HARD)
The ONLY repair needed was the aforementioned motor nut, and a tail rotor. We were flying again in 20 minutes. Amazing engineering.
Have you put locktite (blue) on the nut?
@mssippijim that's not the problem. It's the rectangle middle part that spins the shaft that wears out.
Hey Brian, Did Y'alls Notice The Giant Scary Scull Head + Face In Sky Behind The Lil Heli From 3:00 to 4:00+? 🤣😁😎
WHAT THE HECK!!?!?! and no, we did not notice it!
Con's - for $450:00 you would think they'd send a few extra parts , like main and tail blades and maybe a couple of servo horns ?
Pro's- it's pretty !
To their defense, I did crash it the first go-around.
Brian! Look at the first few minutes of your video. The cloud above the copter is the face of a demon!! Weird and spooky!
What the heck?!?!?
Brian, there was an alien in the sky , looking at you, the cloud 😅 at 3：18
wow, it landed within inches of where it took off from in strong wind 😮😮
yeah, I know - pretty crazy!
Would be good if the control horns was made out of frisbee type plastic that would flex and not snap. Nice looking helicopter.
yeah, totally!
I bought one and got my whestle wit!!!!😂😂😂😂
Beautiful machine, but I hope one day helicopter manufacturers will get away from designs that make you remove canopies to change batteries. It's just not that hard to make a battery tray that is accessible without removing the fragile shell, and then trying to get everything crammed back in and the canopy back on in the correct way. I have a Walkera 250 that was made about 10 or more years ago that had a battery mount tray below the copter between the skids...wonderfully easy to change batteries.
100,000,000% - I HATE TAKING OFF BODIES TO GET TO THE BATTERY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
J’adore quand tu fait des vidéo dhelico sa change des avion meme je les adore
Jaurais aime que tu sois mon père et quand puisse voler à 2 sa doa être formidable pour ton fils 🥰
Thanks! Heli's are fun too!!!
Great vedio Brian😁
Thanks 👍
On my OMP M2 the control horn is the first thing to break.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
@@BrianPhillipsRC It is always when I have crashed. Now my M1 I don’t have that happen when I crash.
25:55 I'm not sure it should RTH like that.
I'd expect it to increase height and get its bearings before coming down.
It CAN go to the target, if it's close enough, but this seems to be ambiguous enough - I want to know for certain what's gonna happen. Surprises from self flying aircraft are not fun!!!
its my favorite elicopter🔝🔝🔝🔝
Very cool one, for sure, Master Steel!
Brian,2 things...advertised flight time is 20 Min.. Also, you don't use LocTite, if so why not? Thanks
It's like magic man
It's like there's NO pilot at all!!! Pretty cool, but also takes a lot of trust.
Brian, I'm not big on helis, but I would have one of those little guys! That was awesome 👍😎❤️
Thanks Timothy!!!
You could easily do Chris Farley voice impressions. If you ever crash i gotta hear a "GOD DAMM IT!!"
Brian thanks for the great video,I am also having a problem with my FW200,I can not get enough adjustment on the app to level the swash plate,as you know you can not move the servo horn because it has a slot in it they are not round,I replaced all the servo horns with new factory ones,that did not help,when you power up the Heli the servos should center themselves and the servo horns should be level,I have one that is not level,I can only adjust it so much in the app but not near enough,I was thinking if I changed servos,like you did,I could actually get some adjustment at the servo to correct my problem,I just don't know what servo horn will fit,I am a beginner and don't have bags of parts available,your input would be much appreciated,Thanks
You're in a tough spot. The parts on these servos are "weird" - they're keyed, or I would just say, take off the arm and move it over one spline tooth...but you can't. I don't know how to fix this issue you're bringing out. Did you get EXACT replacement servos? If not, they may NOT align right :(
@@BrianPhillipsRC Yes I replaced with exact replacement,you replaced the factory servo horn with a different one,didn't it work,your video shows your repair and it looked like it worked,so i am looking for some servo horns that are round splined that will squeeze onto the servo,just don't know what size to get
its Real beautiful😁😁😁
sure is!
it stopped RTH because you took it out of manual, when you change flying modes it cancels it
At-a-boy ice ice. Now everybody can fly up side down. Hey the son and wife made jokes about you being a wife oppressor straw boss. Bad part is is I too talk kinda sorta the same way. I say you are just a want it to be right kinda fellow. It's just we got ticketed listening to you talk about it during that dancing wings build. The son always jokes and says,,,,I said THREE STEPS BACK CAMERA CREW!! SMACK SMACK!!! 🤗 Now that's intertainment.
I'm glad you get it ;) LOL!!!
I got one and it will not hover sits and bounce on ground new to the gps thing gets up maybe less then a foot and goes back down any idea 🤔
Why not just velcro the battery to the little tray?
It's no biggie if you have only one plane for one battery, but I've had it happen about 50-75% of the time...put on the velcro, and it's immediately on the wrong side!!! Or it makes it too wide, or too tall...etc.
A lot of RTH's will not work unless you are a certain distance away...it will just shut down and drop out of the air. Could be what happened here.
Do you mean the BH-200 as in Bad Habits 200?
LOL - exacty
what does camera crew think?
When you is in Acro mode just move the right stick only to do flips
IS that what you do??? I had to move both to get it to react
@@BrianPhillipsRC yes
Hey Brian. A friend of mine gave me 2 helicopter's one about the size of this one and one almost twice this size but the remotes got damaged and they were pretty much toy grade anyway lol. I need a receiver ESC combo and remote to get them flying. What would you recommend and can you give me a link to something decent cheapish lol for 1 and 2S compatible. Cool helicopter guys. Looks like it flies great. If I can get one of mine to fly half that good I will be pleased lol ✌️
Erric - I'd be lying if I said I knew what ESC/Rx Brick to get...especially if the heli's are Cheapies...they might not be worth the cost of getting Rx'es... I'm not sure what I would recommend without knowing make and models.
@@BrianPhillipsRC Fair enough. Thanks for taking the time to reply 👍
Does This GPS have Remote ID Built In?
When I fly FW200 in hovering mode (beginners mode) my Fw200 does not go higher than 3 or 4 meters. Is that a true reaction??
That means it might not have locked for GPS. Sometimes it takes ours a little bit to lock, then it will change the light on the heli, and allow for higher flights.
nice heli, would be better if they sell MD500 shell for it (seen that in a Chinese video), then it is a super nice scale heli ("China hope you are listening" 🙂)
That would be very cool!
Too bad they don't throw in 3 or 4 spare horns for $450, coming from China parts take way long to order. I will most likely wait till Horizon has a version of this in my local hobby shop.
yeah, but there are other horns that fit. I just don't like that it's a WEIRD one...
Quick question...my FW200 for some reason it wont go into expert mode when inverted. Every time I set expert in the app it doesnt respond like its in expert, but stays in beginner. Ive tried starting in acro and it still stays in beginner mode. I check the app and each time it says expert...Does anyone have amy suggestions? Btw its the RTF version and controller...
I have no clue! I assume you HAVE to start in Beginner mode, then flip out of it when airborne???
@@BrianPhillipsRC Well ive tried just about every combination of starting in different modes, but nothing works. Ill try and make a video soon to show what its doing...Also it got stuck upside down and wouldnt flip back over till I cycled RTH. No idea what caused that...
Its fixed!!!!! We ended up using another device to program the setting. I originally had an Android phone app and it would display that it was in expert mode however it would not fly as of it was. By changing to an i-os phone and app we attempted the same thing. This time it worked perfectly the forst time...I have a belief that the android version of the app is bugged so be careful.
Spooling.... Down....

Oi amigo tentei baixar o aplicativo no Android não deu certo qua iPhone você usa?
Is it good for a 10 year old?
Maybe. Might be a big much in my personal opinion...
Here's a short list of heli's we've done in short order...less the more hobby grade ones...since you're considering for a 10 year old. I'll make a few that might make better sense, in my personal opinion. Just my thoughts...and obviously we have videos about each of them too.
Good luck! We FAR prefer doing business with RC going (over banggood), so master link is at the top, if you don't see the heli you have in mind, just start there, and navigate the site as usual if you're trying to help support us.

@@BrianPhillipsRC Awesome! Thanks for the reply! I'll go through them. It's hard to get that sweet spot of not looking like a toy /not being to much to handle.

Eew, Der Chopper?"?
yes
@@BrianPhillipsRC Ahahhaha! Dudes Taking Us back to the World ask Us to leave Our Weapons at the Door!
I still resent this thing, it's just handicapping you. Learn to fly for real first, then you can go back to playing with this thing if you want. But don't use it as a crutch.
I'm not really flying it, to be honest...just showing what it can do. And, to be honest, I really need to keep moving up in size classes as I advance in my heli skills. I don't disagree with what you said, only that it seems you must have missed my comments stating almost the same in this video - this heli flies itself, and doesn't require you be a pilot at all, BUT you CAN pilot it, and that's a good feature.
@@BrianPhillipsRC Also, if you really wanna learn Helis, and I think you do here. This is gonna disappoint you a bit and make you a bit grumpy I'm sure but it's totally true. You're gonna want to take like a month off of airplanes and learn helicopters exclusively. The reason being is that your airplane reflexes are getting in the way. You keep refreshing those neuro pathways and they keep interfering when you go to fly helicopters. I know this from experience. I tried to learn airplanes for a while while also learning helicopters and my reflexes started to interfere. You need to get yourself solid enough on helis that you can fluently switch between the two before you can go back to airplanes if you truly wanna be able to fly both.
Man you do repairs on a heli completely incorrectly and are teaching others on RUclips to do it the same way. You may want to say you’re not an expert before telling people to do what you did.
So this is a single rotor heli that thinks its a quad, wow it must be woke! lmao!
LOL!!! LOL
sorry halfway through I can't watch anymore, this heli is a $450 nightmare...
It's far from a nightmare, but I would prefer to be MORE in the pilot's seat, and less dependent on a controller that I don't really understand as good as I'd like. At least with the other recent heli's we've done, I get to fly it, and it just LEVELS itself when you make a mistake...and doesn't fly away when you flip the wrong switch. I think this, as with any "super-advanced" heli or drone, we kinda need better communication from the MFG on HOW to change modes and make the heli fly. It's scary when it kinda just does something weird.
