The integrated 6-axis gyro and the servo travel limits allow for excellent control of the model, enabling stable hovering. Additionally, the model is self-stabilizing, similar to a coaxial model. The remote control features an extra button to return the helicopter to a stable starting position (hover mode). The pitch and roll movements (forward/backward, right/left) are regulated to ensure that beginner pilots do not face significant challenges. If more power is needed, for example, outdoors in stronger winds, a dual-rate switch on the transmitter provides additional servo travel for support. With a bit of practice, the helicopter can be maneuvered very smoothly and quickly, making it an excellent training model for smaller spaces or halls.
5. Amewi AFX4
The AFX4 is perfect for the entry into the world of helicopter flying. Thanks to its inherently stable flight characteristics, this great model is also suitable for the transition from coaxial helicopters. The AFX4 is delivered with the common mode 2 (throttle left) assignment, so that the vast majority of pilots do not need to make any further changes. Due to the integrated 6-axis gyro and the way limiting of the servos, the model can be controlled very well and allows a very stable hovering flight. In addition, the model is self-stabilizing. The radio remote control has an additional button to bring the heli back to a stable starting position (hover mode). The pitch and roll movements (forward / backward, right / left) are regulated by the manufacturer in such a way that they do not pose any major difficulties for a novice pilot. Should a little more power be required, e.g. outdoors in stronger winds, a dual rate switch on the transmitter provides more servo travel to assist. With a little practice very smooth and fast to move, this helicopter is wonderful as a training model for smaller spaces or halls. The flight time varies depending on the environment between 4 - 6 minutes.
6. Amewi 4-Channel Helicopter 6G 2.4GHz RTF
The AFX-105 X is an authentic replica of one of the world's most famous helicopters, the Bölkow Bo 105, featuring a striking special paint job. The entire construction of the model is robustly built. The newly designed 4-blade rotor head is supported by a precise stabilization system, providing the helicopter with a completely new control experience thanks to auto-start and auto-landing features. With the innovative electronics, even beginners can now fly such a multi-blade helicopter without extensive prior knowledge. The AFX-105 X starts at the push of a button on the handy 2.4 GHz transmitter with an LC display and metal sticks, and it automatically hovers to a certain altitude. There, the model remains in altitude hold mode, allowing the pilot to focus entirely on the essential functions of the helicopter without having to worry about the flight altitude. The gyro system also controls the tail rotor, keeping the model stable in the air. For more agility in flight, the model has three speed levels, which are equally interesting for beginners and advanced users. Thus, the model is also suitable for outdoor use in light winds and achieves high speeds in forward flight. To land, the takeoff/landing button on the transmitter can be pressed again: the model gently descends to the ground. The motor features soft start and soft cut. This means that during startup, the rotor gradually spins up, preventing the model from spinning around its own axis. The same applies during landing: the rotor gradually slows down, and the motor is automatically shut off. As an additional safety feature, the AFX-105 X is equipped with a voltage monitoring system that continuously checks the battery during flight. When the base voltage is reached, the LED lighting in the helicopter starts to blink, signaling that it is time to land as soon as possible. If the pilot does not respond, the system will autonomously take over the landing to protect the battery.
7. Amewi AFX-105
The AFX-105 is an authentic replica of one of the most famous helicopters, the Bölkow Bo 105. The newly designed 4-blade rotor head is controlled by a precise stabilization system, providing a completely new control experience thanks to auto start and auto landing. This makes it possible for beginners to operate a multi-blade helicopter without extensive prior knowledge. With the push of a button on the handy 2.4 GHz transmitter featuring metal sticks, the model can effortlessly take off to a certain altitude. It then remains in altitude hold mode, allowing the pilot to focus on the essential functions of the helicopter without having to monitor the height. The gyro system additionally controls the tail rotor in the background, keeping the model stable in the air.
For more agility in flight, the model features 3 speed levels (dual rate), which are equally interesting for beginners and advanced users. This makes the model suitable for outdoor use (in calm conditions) and allows it to reach high speeds during forward flight. To land, the takeoff/landing button on the transmitter can be pressed again, and the model gently descends to the ground. The motor has a soft start and soft cut feature. This means that during startup, the rotor gradually spins up, preventing the model from spinning around its own axis. The same applies during landing, where the rotor slows down smoothly and the motor is automatically shut off.
As an additional safety feature, the helicopter is equipped with a voltage monitoring system that continuously checks the battery during flight.
