@@CurryKitten No my this is not my Mil days but corporate business. It was definitely a little hot-rod. 140 kts and very nimble. I used to call it the buzzing bee.
'We've got rid of it' 🙂 I guess it's a good beginners heli that looks like a realish heli. Nice review. Shows what terrible weather we have had this year!
2 things, I think it has a direct drive main motor and the other is I think the off switch is so you can turn off and on the optical flow sensor, I think??
Awesome flying and review, Wayne! 😃 I don't know, but it looks like a great first helicopter for someone! Perhaps even for me... 🤔 About the stop button, my impression is that you long pressed it for it to work. Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I don't think it was a long press. I was just pressing it multiple time and one of those times it went beep and fell out of the sky. Maybe good to begin with, but a bit dull if you've flown much before IMO
The RC ERA C189 a very nice looking heli I have one myself it won't do much in the way of 3D acrobatic flight but it'll do a little bit of fancy flying!
Love this Heli. I am ordering one right for Reggie. I have nearly thousand hours in a 500. I just love the real ones and this is nostalgic toy.
So far
Did you get to have missiles on you real one :D

The weather continues to be bad. One day of sun = rain for the next few days! Yeah - it's ok to fly around. Just doesn't really work for me
cant wait for the small/micro scale helis to have transparent windows and cockpits with pilots

The scale appearance is the appeal of the C189 it doesn't do 3D flight but it looks great!
I get you - I'm not one that really appreciates scale models, but this looked pretty good in the air!
Right on, thankfully they make both 3D high-performance hellies and scalars too, when it comes to RC hellies it's an Ideal World.

I have amewi md500 heli.Grey,red.Nice scale heli.
Nice 👍
I really want to get one of these.
You've got a pretty big channel. I'm surprised Banggood aren't randonly sending you unsolicited helis as well
@@CurryKitten That would be pretty cool!
Thats fixed pitch??
I might have that wrong, the pitch of the bllades do in fact alter with input
@@CurryKitten Thanks!
@RobisonRacing68 its not true collective, but auto collective with +pitch only.
