Show more With a rotor diameter of 320mm, the AFX180 single rotor is controlled by a 3D / 6G gyro and also features an automatic "hold altitude" mode (Att. Hold). On top of that, this great entry-level helicopter features an auto-launch function that lets the model take off at the push of a button and hover independently at a safe altitude. The pilot can thus relax and concentrate on the essential control function - and no longer needs to worry about the throttle and the tail. So while the 6G system neatly balances the rear, only the pitch (forward/back) and roll (right/left) functions need to be controlled themselves. In 6G mode, the maximum deflection of the servos is also limited, which makes the system act similar to a coaxial helicopter. When the stick on the transmitter is in the center position, the model automatically stabilizes back around the neutral axis. For faster flights or in light winds, there is also a dual rate function that frees up more servo travel. This makes the model more agile and nimble. Overall made of robust material and equipped with a large LiPo battery 2S 7.4V, 700mAh, long flight times of up to 15 minutes are possible. Quickly recharged within 70-90 minutes via USB cable, the AFX180 single-rotor helicopter can take off again and enjoy the high altitude air to the fullest.
