Modern Helicopters
But what this hobby has seen in recent years is a complete change in variety and designs of helicopter available...
Electric power (EP) has become the norm and multi-function helicopters that need no assembly whatsoever... are being sold in hobby and toy shops alongside model cars and boats.
Fixed Pitch Helis
It's important to realise, though, that such fixed pitch helicopters do have a steep learning curve...
Unlike a coaxial RC helicopter, a fixed pitch heli like those named above can't be flown straight out the box with no previous experience, despite what the manufacturers tell you!
Channels Explained
By the way, when talking about channels it's important to note that this word has two completely different meanings...
For example, a helicopter that has control to just motor power (main rotor speed) and tail rotor speed (yaw) is said to be 'two channel'.
The Popular '400' Class
The '400' size electric collective pitch helicopter is about the most popular size that beginners choose...
Such helis are very reasonably affordable yet offer all the flying capabilities you can expect from a truly aerobatic/3D radio control helicopter.
Building Confidence
As your confidence grows, which it will, you can increase power slightly and get the helicopter higher...
For some helicopters... this is actually very beneficial because it gets the model out of the Ground Effect ('GE').
Don't just take it from us... listen to our readers.
