Product Description

Helizone introduces the all new 4 Channel two.four Ghz based Thunderbird! The Thunderbird not only can fly your typical 3 Channel direction Throttle Up and Down, Left and correct direction, forward and backward, but can also fly Sideways! With a built in Gyro and solid frame, the Thunderbird is built upon the strength of its predecessors with added efficiency and characteristics. Benefit from 3 Channel to Thunderbird: - 3 Channel relies its forward/backward speed based on the speed of the tail rotor. four Channel helicopters relies its direction and speed on the movement of the "swashplate." Since tail rotors are generally limited in power, four Channel helicopters are able to fly substantially quicker! - three Channel are limited in range due to most becoming "infrared" based. Range is usually 20-30 feet and can only fly indoors. The Thunderbird is in a position to fly inside, and outside without any interference, with range up to 100+ feet. two.four Ghz advantages: The 2.four Ghz based technologies automatically syncs a frequency with the helicopter, so pilots no longer have to be concerned about frequency interference with other helicopters. The lower in latency and longer in range of 2.4 tends to make the Thunderbird the ultimate Micro helicopter. Many thunderbirds can be flown in the identical room, and in calm climate, can be flown outside without having any interference.

Consumer Evaluations

And perfect out of the box- the charger even mentioned the battery was topped off- we put 6 cells into the transmitter (giggy-hertz sort, awesome), and switched anything on without having reading any directions (OK, I did truly appear at the control diagrams 1st, and mentally practiced them for a minute or two).
I chose my kitchen floor as a takeoff point, even although the cabinet faces result in ground impact nightmares. Actual World circumstances.
Getting flown 100's of modest 3-channel copters, I knew a quick leap up to waist level would be much better than finessing it up, so I went for it.
Throttle stick to 50%.
Wow, it had no tendency to ceiling-drill, just got lift. I was able to hold that lift pretty readily with no excitement, so sidelong dodges. The shiny black Helizone Thunderbird just caught air and waited for me to want something else out of it. Outstanding, what Modern Technology has achieved (and for such an amazingly low price tag).
My Helizone Thunderbird was indeed flyable out of the package, and by a NOOB like me with especially strongly 3-channel-trained thumbs. A significant reason for this ease of use, I believe, is its stability and power, combined with a spooky-tight gyroscope keeping its nose pointed where you place it.
I mean, it just does not rotate unless you steer it to a various heading. I had a 4-channel LAMA-kind copter prior to, and even even though it had "gyro", it had absolutely nothing like this has. This issue stays pointed, and makes you appear fine performing it.
My wife stated "Wow you have honestly gotten great with those." She didn't know it was an "advanced" copter, and I got a compliment, initially-flight. :)
In just handful of moments, I was zipping and cruising all more than the property, setting down and lifting off here and there, at will. I did not crash once.
This is what you imagine carrying out when you order a copter, and this is the first a single I could ever really do it with.
As soon as I lastly took some mercy and decided to rest this beautiful helicopter, I got out my 3x - 15x optical loupes (I am a retired QA Inspector) and a major lamp, and poured over the copter's particulars even though the battery was getting re-charged (applying the included wall charger). This issue is impressive in its detail and execution. I have seen the insides of literally million-dollar machines that were not assembled with the exact same care shown in this unit. I can barely handle these parts with tweezers: these extraordinary many people have made dependable operating avionics out of them (I in fact had to maintain reminding myself that I was indeed inspecting a TOY) somehow.
I am Pretty impressed with the fit, finish, and develop excellent in the Thunderbird. Helizone has genuinely set the bar high for competitors in the "beginner" (genuinely, any skilled flier would Appreciate flying this responsive machine) 4-channel segment, I think.
Helizone Thunderbird looks like a solid, lengthy-lasting design with some rather advanced characteristics, several you would previously find at two or a lot more times the price. Which brings up a outstanding point, you could own 3 of these Bad-Boys for the value of final year's popular-copter, and that's a superb thing, simply because I just saw the other colors this comes in.

I was so excited to get my first rc heli. When the Mail man lastly dropped it off on my door step, I felt like a kid at Christmas. I ran to the door and ripped the package open. I saw the black beauty gleaming at me. I went to the shop and bought fresh AA batteries for the transmitter, I created sure the heli was charged up. I turned on the transmitter and the heli and to my surprise nothing happened. The heli lights had been flashing and prepared to go, but the transmitter did not operate. I attempted distinct batteries and nevertheless nothing. I read and attempted the difficulty shooting approaches that had been in the instruction manual. Yet once again, nevertheless absolutely nothing. Sadly I packed the heli and transmitter back up and sent it back to amazon. Now I am searching else where to lose my heli virginity.
