[NSRCA-discussion] You gotta have it!

[Stuart Chale]

We have the Hirobo Lama.  Great for indoor flying and much more controllable
than the picoo Z.   The Picoo is more of a novelty.  It is a bit if a
challenge to get it to fly where you want it to.  But, at only $30 and tough
enough to take significant abuse, you can let anyone try it.

If you like that you should pick up a Horizon Blade CP. It comes with
everything you need including batteries and a transmitter. It's a collective
pitch machine so it is fully aerobatic. Just don't try any backward flips
unless you have the carbon blades. <VBG> Parts are cheap in case you have an
accident.

Hey Stuart,

 

I have to say that this little heli has been a blast. For $30, it is well
worth the money. I think I have flown it more in the last two days than I
have flown my pattern plane in the last two months. Now, if they would just
come out with a $30 indoor pattern plane...! 

 

I'll add some comments. One slightly annoying thing is it has to retrimmed
every flight. Also, it took probably 5 flights for the motor/battery to
break in and have enough power. The right and left are slightly erratic at
times, but it adds to the challenge. This little thing is pretty fun.

 

Thanks,

Emory Schroeter.

 


Not pattern but something every R/Cer should have.  For only $30 at Radio
shack it's a lot of fun.

Picoo Z mini helicopter.  Check out the video.  (I haven't been able to get
mine to fly this smoothly yet)
