    Hey Fil that's a pretty cool Helicopter. The auto take-off and land is an awesome feature. It sure didn't look like it was only your second time flying a heli! Nicely done, pal! :D

    I do like all the safety and convenience features of them! The altitude hold and the auto land are the two I like the most. I had bought a heli years ago and destroyed it quickly trying to fly it! No features like this to help a newb and the poor heli paid the price! Very cool and small enough to fly pretty much anywhere!

  • @ahhobby2527
    @ahhobby2527 2 месяца назад +3

    When flying an rc helicopter, during take off, you would want to have the chopper facing away from you, with the tail pointing towards you.
    This way, you'd get the best orientation for optimal control.
    It's a sweet little heli. Love mine.

      @@poorboysrc haha it’s okay, we are all a beginner at some points. As long as you had fun.
      The RC Era C138 is a great replica of the Bell 206 Jetranger. I have been flying rc helis for five years now, more of a scale flyers, not really into sports flying or 3D stunts. I enjoy real-looking rc helis and I fly them like how the real stuffs do.
      In rc buggy world, the RC Era C138 is like the Tamiya Hornet - aimed for beginners but the more advanced flyers will enjoy it too, if that makes sense 😬
      It’s tame, not too responsive, good for relaxing flights after a long day at work :)

    If you're a newcomer to R/C helicopters you can't go wrong with this aircraft. It's great for learning orientation (AKA, training yourself to think in terms of the aircraft's perspective) It's so easy to fly that you can get the hang of it in one or two flights. The one button takeoff/landing feature works great. The low battery auto-land feature is great and the flashing LED low battery warning gives you plenty of time to fly it back to you and one-button land it before the low battery auto-land kicks in.
    I have this aircraft and the Eachine E120, and they have all the same beginner friendly features. They're pretty rugged, come with spare rotor blades...I'd recommend them to any beginner R/C heli pilot. 🙂👍

    Can you change the mode? I'm used to rudder being with throttle.

    • @rocpile
      @rocpile 2 месяца назад +1

      The tail rotor pitch on the left stick (with throttle) is mode 2. Much more common these days. Mode 1 swaps tail rotor pitch with the left/right cyclic pitch.

    She looks like a nice flyer, but I'm waiting on the FPV racing or freestyle drone video. It's a new world, and you won't get lost with the direction, but don't use anything but acro mode. Otherwise, you will develop bad habits a sim is the key to success for these super fast drones.

      @poorboysrc I got the FPV module for my DJI Phantom 3 when I loved in Singapore that gave me the bug. Then I met some drone racers vnd gave that a go. After flying with an assisted drone I had to learn how to fly again using skill not technology. I hope you can try it you will have a blast.
