Radio Controlled Helicopters

what is a good 4ch remote controlled helicopter for beginners?
I want it under 100 dollars, or for 100 dollars
go to a website where they sell it or yotube

I want to get a RC Helicopter, because i need to start a new hobby. Where can i get all the parts to a helicopter, with instructions to build one? I want to buy online, and i want to start before June/July.

I would suggest clicking on the following link:
http://searchrc.horizonhobby.com/index.jsp?sid=126455C8D5E0&Ne=500&N=5401+593

Those helicopters listed and the site provided will show you what helicopter is best and the available parts that you can replace it with.
I would suggest starting with a coaxial helicopter; The one with one propeller on top of the other.
Something like this:

They are affordable and it comes with everything you need to do the hobby.

You don’t need the instructions to build one, and it is best not to build your first helicopter, as it just builds frustration with the hobby as it doesn’t fly. The helicopter you purchase here does come with a manual that states how to replace a part for the helicopter if necessary.

so basically, im making this box for christmas to send off to an orphan in ukraine, he wants a remote control helicopter, does anyone know anywhere i can buy a good one at a low price?

Check out the site below - it has some excellent examples of micro helis which are a real blast to fly, plus good tips and sources for buying them on sale.

i have an rc chopper. when i charge it and start it , after reaching a
certain speed , the blades stop and the heli says the battery is low .
but if i continue spinning the blades below the flying speed , the battery
does not does not discharge. WHAT IS WRONG ?

Please state the brand and model of the helicopter, and I will provide the needed information for the fix.

Hi, I am a Paparazzi and am sticking on a lightweight camera onto a Remote controled helicopter. It will not go further than 20 meters up in there are, but as far as 150 meters away from the remote. My budget is under $300 but if you could recommend others a bit over that price range that are worth it, that would be fine.

THank you.

Get the Blade CX2 or Blade CX3 from E-Flite. Those are the best beginner helicopters that may be able to support your camera… depending on how big it is.

I’m just looking to buy my first rc helicopter but it’s so confusing. Do I need 2 chs, 4chs or is 6 chs?
Should I get as many chs as I can afford? I don’t even really know what they are.

If you want to control the RC Helicopters flying, you need a radio transmitter(where you can move the stick to control the rc movement). The channel is related with how many part that you will control, such as if you only want to move the 2 part(such as throttle and turn) so you need only 2 channel. In RC HELICOPTERS model, there are more channel needed, and the common used is 6 channel(6chs).Hope it help

RC Helicopters are fun, but noisy..is it because the electric motors are noisy or is it the rotors moving through the air that makes so much noise?

It is the rotors making the noise.

As a helicopter crewman for 15 years we always had to listen to the fixed-wing pilots favorite joke about helicopters:

"They don’t FLY… they just beat the air into submission !!"

Seriously, the electric motor is almost silent. There will be a high-pitched whine from the gearing system. And the loudest noise will be the rotor-tips pounding the air. ALSO, there is a secondary noise from where the rotors cross over or near the tail rotor.
