No worries with this. I had absolutely no experience and I flew this right out of the box. If it looses its signal it will return home.

11.1 was limited. They don't make it any more. I searched all over for it. The 7.4V is fun for flying in large open spaces like a high school gymnasium, but outside is terrible. Hope that helps.

This is a complete ready to fly RC plane. It is geared for the new flyer and the only thing extra you might need is a couple more batteries. I would recommend that you learn on a simulator and practice. Have a ball you will enjoy. If you have problems flying the first few times, spare parts are available. So to barrow the commercial, "just go do it".

I found a just plane only deal on amazon, unless you can find a plane only, you will have to buy a arf kit or rtf kit.I installed a1400kv brushless motor and 2.4 radio and it flys great.

The differences are the individual parts of the heli. If I remember correctly, the main difference is in the main rotor assembly. The standard has a mostly plastic main rotor assembly and the SE V2 has a mostly metal main rotor assembly. If you are a beginner RC heli pilot or if you are buying this for someone who is, the differences will probably be transparent. If you have experience with non-hobby grade helis, these fly a lot different. Once thing is for sure, you will need spare parts. I suggest purchasing a simulator (Pheonix or RealFlight heli) that uses an actual RC transmitter. These simulators are a little expensive (around $200) but well worth it in the long run. You will be able to learn to fly with out the heartache of crashing your actual heli. One more thing, RTF (ready to fly) doesn't mean just take it out of the box and go. You really need to learn about your heli and do some research about pre-flight checks and first time flight preparation procedures. While RC helis of this size and type are bought at toy stores and in toy departments, these are serious pieces of electronics and spinning blades that can hurt you or others if you don't take precautions. There are a lot of good websites and forums out there to help you learn. Its well worth the time and effort. It took me some time and I am definitely still learning, but I love to fly...and crash and fix and do it all again.

Richard, Hope this helps don't know early the V1 is. Have flown a V911 before the (newer) version in red and a V911 from the (newer toys) version and use both the first org. batt. and batts. from the early five pack sold on amazon 200 mah if recalling correctly.

It is the 1.1.1 version. Flew great right out of the box. Knowing what I know now, I'd skip the prop guards. They add weight and the plastic props are cheap. Plus, if you install the guards, the copter won't fit in the case!

We'll yes as all r/c planes. Please don't buy this plane. After one flight the plane doesn't work. Transmitter works of a range of about 3 feet and ducted fans burn out. Spend a little more money on some thing like a cub or some sort of trainer. THIS PLANE DOES NOT WORK!!

the best flight sim to use if your looking to practice before the real deal is RealFlight 7 or 6.5, 7 is new out but you can get 5,6,or even 4 at a good deal on a used one on amazon. The others that are free are garbage, bad graphics and good luck even to get them running on your system, believe me i tried them all, real Flight has all the planes that the hobby shop carrries and more so you get to practice with what your going to fly be it Planes or Helicopters. So save yourself a world of grief and go with the best ..and Yes I fly all kinds of planes but i always practice first with Real Flight crash there planes and its just press the reset button, crash the real deal and it 'll cost ya way more then the program...hope this helps

This was a Mode 2. It is really "twitchy" when flying. I personally like the Blade 300X much better being a tad larger and the ability to set it up as a beginner, if needed. mCpx V2 are just two hard to fly unless you are an absolute EXPERT. Choice is yours, but me I would not buy another one. Hope this clarifies a few things.

Well, I use mode2, but it has been my understanding that mode1 or mode2 is a personal choice, I am pretty sure either one will work with this plane. I think the difference is in what stick controls which axis. Better check that out before you buy.

I just received my red one todayI gotTwo5 minute flight times.It's absolutely one of the best I have bought.Sorry my first response didn't come out the way I said it.I hope the second response helps you!

The range of flight is pretty much the same as how far you can see the quad copter. I know because this is the seccond one I have had. The first one just dropped out of the sky and into the lake. If you can't afford to lose it, don't buy it, because DJI will not replace it....I fraught and fraught with Dji and the bad craft, but they don't replace the units at all.

6.5 Only had two which were the Guai 330x-s (no, I havent heard of it either) and the Heli Max 1SQ. When I upgraded to 7, I got an extra one generically called "quadcopter" along with the previous two mentioned. So, in literal terms, 7 gives you more.. 1. I added the expansion pack 8, an there were no quads there. I do know you can go out on the forums and find where you can download additional aircraft for the simulator that are sanctioned. In either 6.5 or 7, go to "help", then "websites" then "swap pages". There you will find downloadable aircraft for either version. Its an easy process. I poked around for you and found only a couple currently out there but more to come such as the 350QX (unconfirmed). Good luck. 6.5 Only had two which were the Guai 330x-s (no, I havent heard of it either) and the Heli Max 1SQ.

I was in contact with Real Flight tech support just last week about other matters but asked them that question last week. You will have to by the disc. They do not offer downloads on upgrades and updates to the 6.5 are automatic only through the software if it is registered properly.

Just bind one at a time. We fly our V911s two at a time. Same radio technology, 2.4GHz stays with the transmitter it is bound to. Larger hobby copters use DSMx tech which takes the safety a few steps further. This ain't your grandpa's AM radio with frequencies to worry about.

I would imagine this might be the older version. It was out back in 2012 so I'm sure by now they have come up with something newer. If I'm not mistaken I think I read something about a newer one. But I'm not sure. I just know this one has been out for some time. That being said, if you do not have one of these, it's a pretty good Heli to fly. As some of the reviews have said, it's not for a beginner but still not too difficult to fly for someone who has a little flying time under their belt and I am assuming by the question asked, you have some experience flying these. I have a lot of fun with it. I have six helicopters. Most of them are indoor size but I do have 2 that are outdoor copters. This is one of them.
