Is this a beginner level heli?

No. This is a collective pitch helicopter. The most advanced and the hardest to fly and quite intimidating to a new pilot. 130x is on sale for 140 bucks. It's also a cp heli but much smaller and cheaper to fix and less intimidating but even this little one is more powerful than any fixed pitch I ever flew. If you're serious about the hobby, either one are great little helis but You will get better faster on the little 130 for the very reasons I mentioned above.

Definitely not a beginner level heli. Collective pitch helicopters require a fair amount of skill to fly and this heli is big enough and powerful enough to cause expensive damage and even injuries when you crash it. A better choice would be a coaxial helicopter like the Blade MCX2 or a smaller single-rotor helicopter with fly bar like the 120 SR.

Blade 200srx is the best beginner helicopter, it has safe technology. A panic button that will bring the helicopter back at close to a hover

Yes this plane is outstanding for a begginer, That was the reason I bought it. I have tried 2 other begginer planes that cost more money and have not lasted half as long. I have crashed a few times and had to use some foam glue(not super glue) to get the plane back to flying but nothing major that needed me to buy replacment parts for the plane. I have nose dived into the ground, hit a fence a few times even hit a tree and the plane is still flying great. The controller is simple and will not confuse a new flyer, the gyro system in the plane is great and will keep the plane level while flying. Hope this answered your question and if you have more feel free to askVR James Yes this plane is outstanding for a begginer, That was the reason I bought it.

The plane is not very powerful but a good beginning place. I'm not very good at flying remote control airplanes so I wanted something inexpensive and light. I've crashed it about 40 or 50 times and yes it's broken in several places but easily repaired and still flies great. it's an inexpensive way to gain some skills in remote control airplane flying

I believe that anyone can fly this plane. I have been flying planes and helicopters for a few years now and this is one of the best planes I have bought for the price. Make sure you buy some extra batteries ( I bought a 4 pack of 180 mAH 3.7v) and I'm glad I did because I have even more fun flying. But back to the plane. You also need a controller that is compatible with the aircraft ( something like dsmx 2 technology) what's good about this plane is that if you break it you can buy basically any part required to fix it. It is pretty durable if you take care of it. Definitely a great buy and we'll worth the money... also it can fly in pretty gusty winds for how light weight it is. If you or someone you know is a beginner, tell them to get this plane

Yes, it is a collective pitch, 3D helicopter. Flies inverted pretty well. Very good learning heli for 6 channel. Even has a learners setting that will revers the controls for you for inverted flying. Hope this information helps you.

It was my first plane and i had no help learning to fly. It handles well in the wind (although you should NEVER try to fly in any wind if you are learning), and it is easily repairable should the worst happen. I crashed mine 3 times before i had a successful flight and it is still in decent condition. Mine had a rudder trim problem from day one that i had trouble diagnosing as a first time flyer, But other than that it is one of the best planes a beginner could have.

I've flown 4 ch helps for about 3 month before I bought this bird this is a easy heli to fly once you get you practice in I love this bird

probably so....although it is a 4 channel copter, with single propeller..it is a little more difficult to fly than 3 channel copters...if they have no experience in flying, then you MIGHT want to go with a 3 channel, until more experience is gained in flying.

Yes, But it is not worth the $$$$$ . It would cost more than buying a quality Heli. Like a Blade or a Align. . Give up Heli's and get a quad copter blade 350qx or wait until May and get the Blade 200qx

This was my 1st glider and I would say as long as you have a basic understanding of how to control it you should be fine. It's an extremely stable plane.

The simulator only has airplanes,jets,gliders and two helicopters.If flying a heli helps then....After reading prior answers,I would like to say I learned several stunts and polished my skills on it and I still use it every now and then.

Hello, This is a really nice heli for indoors and outside with little or no wind. It measures just about 9 inches long and 4 inches high. I have two of them and have had them for about a year. Fly them a lot. It is a really tough little bird. Ive only broken one tail rotor between the two. Great for a beginner or someone that like to play indoors. I think you would like. Enjoy, Ray

According to my daughter, this heli did good in a light wind and had good height and took some beating. The box states indoors on it but my grandson flew it outdoors and was very satisfied.

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

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

You can but you probably will have trouble especially if there is any wind. It's ment for indors and is considerd a beginners heli but it's a lot if fun. Get extra batteries if you get it

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.
