mini RC helicopters

I would be highly suspect of the swollen battery. It's just not worth using it and possibly starting a fire. Also, I use a LiPo-Safe bag when charging LiPos. Buy a few more Nano-techs, they're only about a buck and a half each for the ones you need.

Well I emailed the seller so I will ask for a replacement that is not swollen.

Agreed, puffed lipos are bad Period, maybe not so much a fire hazzrd but most likely it's past rechargable, I'm talking 1V or less dead, plus there is still a chance of fire so, indeed try and get a replacement or by new ones.

He wants me to ship it back for a replacement but frankly I find that a scary idea. I dont want to be held responsible if this thing bursts in transit. Theres a fair amount of pressure in their already.

Edit: Nevermind. I sent him a picture and he will resend a new one. Problem solved.

Just purchased this one: Low Price 2 4GHz 4CH R C Remote Control Single Propeller Gyro Helicopter V911 OG | eBay

What I've seen so far, this should be an awesome 4-channel heli for the price.


Vid follows as soon as I got it :beer:

I own a SYMA S-107. it's 3 channel but does have a gyro in it. For a beginner or vet. the sheer simplicity of operating this helo makes it awinner in my book. I took the advice of a Forum Member about buying this helo & have been VERY HAPPY with it !!!

Purchased the S-107 back in 2010. It is still flying, even after some heavy crashes!

Yeah my S107 is still flying, they are about the best mini RC copters you can get.

Two great quad-chopper. Both pretty much similar. Great flyers.

I've wanted an RC heli since I was a kid. I had one when I lived in NJ but it was a cheap toy that used IR and broke easily. I barely had 50sqft to use it in and that took a lot of the fun out of it. Now that I live in the country I've considered getting one again, but I don't even know where to start looking. I'd want true radio control, and a battery life better than 10min of run time for under $100. Probably not easy to find.
