Is there any difference between this red Sky Botz heli and the and the blue one other than that the blue one is priced one dollar less? Thanks.

no difference. great flyers to learn on. you will eventually want something better like dji phantom

Also I would recommend using some light 3in1 oil on the motor shafts for lubrication! My tail motor burned out... Now I am down till I get spare parts OR buy more than 1 helicopter to rest one while flying the other! You can buy a BNF helicopter for 20.00$ w/o the extra transmitter( just the helicopter) which means bind and fly using the same transmitter from the original purchased heli w/ transmitter!

I don't have the blue ones so I can't answer that question but the red ones are great and they are cheaper...

I own both types of helis,, S107 and MCX2. The MCX2 is 4 channel as opposed to 3 channel for the Symas.The 4 channel is a lot more fun to fly and gives the pilot much more control over the heli. Also the battery caneasily be replaced and can be recharging while you're flying the heli with your spare battery. In my opinion theMCX2 is worth the extra cost.

i am recovering from back surgery and my physical therapist told me to get the blue one made by Medic Air. about 16 bucks. the other is made by Corflex and i have no idea how good it is. i am very happy with the Medic Air one i got and would stick with it if i had to buy another.

I love this Hel and I would heartily recommend it. No heli in this price point is going to perform well with in the wind, but of all of my units this one does the best job.

I think a better option might be a 4-channel rather than a collective pitch copter like the Nano. 4-channel copters (like the v911) are stable in the air and if you release the cyclic, they will return to a hover on their own. A CP heli will not--they are not stable and will not hover by themselves for more than a second or two. They are very fast and they will shoot across the room (or into you) almost too fast to see at first.I'm not saying it can't be done, mind you...but expect to crash frequently and spend quite a bit of money on parts at first.

The only difference between version 1 & 2 is the battery style. Version 1 has a slide in type battery that is kind of hard to insert, and version 2 has a type that pretty much looks the same, except there is a plug-in on the front so it's easier to insert. I love these little heli's, they are tough and would be great for stepping up from a co-axle, or as your first time. So if you plan on buying one get version 2, it's just easier to deal with the batteries.

You're right on the traction. The blue one has grip tape covering almost the entire deck surface while the red one's grip tape consists of the oval razor logo. Also as noted before, the red one does not have a kickstand to stand the scooter upright. IMO if the two are priced the same, I'd go for the blue one

According to the Chinglish description you would think so. I got a WL toys support tech on live chat while browsing and she says they are all the same frequency so no. Searched youtube and yahoo for simultaneous V959 Quadcopter flights and got nothing reliable in the affirmative. It is a fun copter with fair video for the price though. Returning to the ground from high altitudes is a bit tricky, but I see there is a new six axis model for a few bucks more that should take care of that.

There is very little difference. I think that the red one has a hand brake but we have both (red and blue) and my kids didn't even want the hand brake set up so I can't tell you too much about it. I've seen a neighbor use the hand brake so that is my only experience with it. I don't think there are any other differences. Hope this helps!

It is likely the easiest of the outdoor helis available. However, outdoor air currents require constant compensation in comparison to an indoor S117 that effectively stays rock solid and almost flys itself. I had enough difficulty keeping it trimmed that I decided it wasn't for me, but if you are sure you want an outdoor heli, this is probably an excellent choice.

It is true that the real CH-47s have two main rotors (Fwd and Aft) that spin opposite directions but are linked together via sync shafts. This counter-rotation cancels out any torque effect and allows to maximize engine power for lift. The aerodynamics of this toy are obviously different buy keep in mind that there is no flight control closet, or upper dual boost actuators, Longitudinal cyclic trims, etc......But, it does fly well when everything is working properly, and it is a lot of fun, and is about 20 bucks compared to about 30 million. and yes, I am a Chinook pilot and I still have fun chasing my cat around the house with this helicopter (she seems to enjoy it too).

I'm not sure, but you could ask the question on Heli Freak, someone from the community would know and answer. http://www.helifreak.com/forumdisplay.php?f=76

SusanI can probably help but I need more to go on than moves sideways to the left. Is this your first FP heli?Markmarknauman53@gmail.com

They are the same heli but the 9118 has a better Radio range. the circuit board burns out on both easily

Good heli, stable havent had any problems except with foward thrust which is an easy fix by simply flipping the switch on the transmitter from slow to fast steal for the price I usedTo fly high end nitro and electric rc helis and planes as a hobby i used to have the 9053 it sucks and broke hence the words used to
