Does it worth it ? i already have a kk2.0 in my quad and it flies great !

The only reason to buy this is for gps. This has camera gimbal to and return to home. I have the kk2 and it works great. If you are park flier is ok, but naza is better if you want something more professional.

Yes, it's like a Toyota and a Bentley, both do the same, but one offers more, in rhis case fps stabilizing, return to home with landing, dinamic orientation, etc

i loved my kk2, it was great to learn how to fly. The Dji is amazing at stabilization, gps positionning, the handling has improved a lot.It was a great improvement for me.

The KK2 FC board doesn't even compare to this. This is true auto-pilot system. I've bought 2 of them. Also have the Naza M V2. You will love this and its a breeze to setup.

I use the DX6i for flying all my airplanes and now quadcopters. It works great for me and you can save different aircraft you fly on your transmitter also. The DX6i was recommended for me from guys that fly all the time. Hope that helps you out a bit.

It is a very cool looking & fun plane, but takes some patience to learn to fly it as a beginner. Maneuvers pretty quickly due to all the wing surface and short fuselage. Go for it, but "learn" out in a non-wind day & big tall grassy area until you get used to landing it. Have fun!!

no, quad will fly just fine. I flew one at Tahoe lodeg at similar altitude. have fun

I flew a s107 for a short time then moved up to the msrx ,there is a small learning curve,if you have patience it shouldn't be a problem. I have now moved on to the blade mcp x

There are detailed instructions in a few of the reviews that cover how to set it up. I used this on a tri while waiting for my kk 2.0 to ship from overseas. With a tricopter you will be flying with no stabilization very difficult but good for teaching yourself how to level a no stabilized multiroter. I would recommend that you get a better board with stabilization like the kk2.0 especially if you are just starting out.

Hi, I didn't go to extreme lengths to compare pricing. I did find a few different models, each with similar control systems. all within a couple dollars. Prices really started to jump when you start looking into outdoor models as well as those that have full 4.5 channels (Up, down, forward, backward, turn left/right, Rotate left/right AND slide left/right). This model lacks the ability to slide left/right. I paid something in the low twenties for this model, I believe these days that full 4.5 channel models are now available in this price range. I'd suggest you focus on those to get the full flying experience if the prices are as reasonable as I believe them to be. Hi, I didn't go to extreme lengths to compare pricing.

It's a little bigger than a 200 size heli. I would not buy this heli. Major problem with tail motor DOA. Mine was and 2 more were. Get a WL TOYS V912. You will be much happier with this fixed pitch heli. Same size, much better quality. FYI... If you already have flow 3-4 channel fixed pitch heli's. ...And you feel pretty confident, go for a collective pitch 6 channel. If you like this size, get a Walkera Master CP. Very docile for collective pitch heli. I own one and still fly it even today although I have advanced to more 3D capable heli's. It is a relatively inexpensive heli even in RTF versions ($150 or so). You will get much more enjoyment once you get over complexity of collective pitch flying.

I wouldn't recommend adding any additional weight to this little bird. I even tend to fly mine with the canopy removed, seems a bit more responsive that way. Even with a higher mah lipo, the added weight of the bigger cell can hardly even extend flight times, much less provide any additional lift. Also, adding additional weight will dramatically reduce the life-span of the small brushed motors. Still, for the price, its a very fun quad to fly.

I have been flying mine indoors only.....when the weather gets nice I'll try it outdoors. Flies great indoors.

We still have ours and it works fine. I guess it will depend how well you treat it and what environment you are flying it in. We only fly it indoors. It is fun and the family enjoys it.

No do not buy, remember this is a 6 ch 3D heli with power to chop your fingers off. 1st go for walkera mini cp good luck :)

No issue, more punch. I have a 45C in mine. Flight times not as long but it moves quick.

I'll put it this way. I already own one. I'm purchasing another just because of the kick ass price. crashed it 100x and never broke anything. just remember to power down in case of imminent doom and u should break anything. of course the surface you are "landing" on has alot to do with its durability and mostly i fly over grass. also if you look at the parts, they are all seperate and easy to replace and pretty damn cheap. I had to send mine to helimax right out of the box. the T.A.G.S. was malfunctioning and the transmitter wouldn't always go all the way down on the throttle (bad pot?). anyways they sent me a ups label and had it back to me in no time. I complained that it was my first helimax product and i was disappointed because the heli and the transmitter both were defective but they insisted it was a fluke and upgraded my swash to compensate me for my lost time. that was enough to get my business over and over. They did not question if i had crashed the chopper or not. they took my word for it.

I am not sure myself. Personally I would upgrade into a better controller such as the DX6i. Happy Flying!

Jim, I bought mine about a year ago and my package came with two quadcopters (Gaui 330X-S Quad Flyer and the Heli-Max 1SQ). They were harder to fly because they are small and you have to keep them close. My package also came with the following helicopters. Bell 222, Dominion 3D, Dominion 3D 90, Dominion 3D 90 FBL, Dominion 400, Dominion 450 3D, Ecureuil, Furion 450, Gaui X7, Heli-Max Ave 400 3D EP RTF, Heli-Max Axe CP, Heli-Max Axe EZ, Huey UH1, Jet Ranger, Mako F3C, Schweizer 300C, Schweizer 300C W/Floats, Sikorsky Skycrane, Synergy E6, Synergy E7, Thunder Tiger Innovator EXP, Tutor 600, Tutor 600 Trainer, V22 Osprey, and the Westland Lynx. My favorite helicopter is the Lynx because it has four blades and is more stable and realistic to fly. The Osprey is also cool to fly - especially from the cockpit view. Also included is a training site that teaches hovering. Day and night flight are also available, plus you can add wind if you like. Great fun with awesome graphics. Camera views vary with aircraft, but include fixed on the ground, nose camera, cockpit view, or chase plane view. Enjoy. Package also includes a blimp, Wright Brothers flyer, sea planes, sail planes, gas and electric, single and multi engine planes
