these look like clones of syma's choppers.

Salvation1 = Syma Clever Dragonfly

having said that, do you have spare parts for Salvation1? I need a rotor motor. biggrin.gif

and bob, I'm pretty sure these choppers are for indoors. Im pretty sure for the first one at least. The litar is your house. Navigate from kitchen to living room without hitting walls. heh

The heli keep yawing a side is because the two rotor turning in difference speed. you need to adjust it to turn into same speed in order to make the heli stable. locate the "PROPORTIONAL" screw on the MIXER (RECEIVER), you need to turn the screw clockwise or anticlockwise to adjust it and please be gently. here is the step

1) adjust the PROPORTIONAL screw.
2) disconnect the heli power source and wait for few second then reconnect it back ( before do this make sure you remote control calibration nod is all adjust to center.)
3) slowly increase the speed of the two rotor blade and make sure they all starting to rotate at the same time. if one rotor blade start turning then the other one. readjust it until it equa.
4) try to fly it and if it still slowly rotate in the air. re-adjust again.

if you heli keep run forward by it self you need to adjust the shaft at the servo. what you need to do is :

1) put the heli on the group. locate the servo contolling the forward and backward.
2) you see a Bell link connecting between the servo and the Swashplate, i believe it is too long. make it shorter by taking it out and turning the Bell link Plastic section. do not turn too much, by turning too much it will fly backward all the time.
3) keep tring untill you your heli as stable as posible. and then adjust it from the remote controller to perfecting it.

happy flying.

I have flown 5 type of rc heli. First one Apachee Ah-64 3D modified to 4D, very nice n stable but my daughter flew it into the sawah padi and lost.

Second one is 2D heli modified (just put some weight infront so it become almost 3D that can move forward) and easy to control if u really can understand your heli.

Third one 3D heli modified - hardly to control bcoz i think the receiver have the problem. Sumtime rotating even after switch off transmitter for sumtime.. at last smoking during flying and rest in grave.

Then i bought another 3D heli again to train my son. But still hardly to control.

The fifth one i bought Colco Cyclone Thunderbird 4D for RM280 from kemen marketting. They have spare part also. But until now still tuning the heli coz during training flight the stabilizer bar patah,... then i change it to steel bar but the bar bengkok. So still trying to tuning after trying a few bar.

scratches won't cause any problems. however, if parts of the blade have chipped off, then yes. but generally it is still able to fly if only tiny parts are chipped off due to crashes/collisions.

Normally the servo control is selected using the screw type switch inside the gyro box. before flying the heli, set all the servo to zero. then you put some power and adjust the servo one by one. ie adjust the turning first so that your heli will not spinning while take off. after resolve that problem then you adjust another servo which is control the yaw of the heli which is cause the unballance left and rightof the heli. then goes for the third one. then after you can mAKE the heli harver (fly stable) then you can happily fly it ever after. Hope this will give a little help to you. anyway i m new also with this hobby.

the screw type is gyro rite? that is to control the main blade and the tail blade so that it wont spin.

in ur case, i believe ur enctral shaft is not 90 degree setup. that is why it's going side ways. try to adjust with ur controller else, u have to screw/unscrew the "hand" that hold the shaft.

dun really know how to explain, but i hope u understand. haha

go for at least 4 channel.
v3/v4 good start wink.gif

anyhow.. u will still need to go tru the setup process to make sure the hel is flight ready. altou.. it's RTF... often they fly unstable. wink.gif

according to my sifu, belt-cp is very nightmare for 6channel newbies and its oso quite hard for those experience one, cos the stock settings are not stable and many parts like receiver/TX/Gyro/Servo nid to changed to better 1 in order to fly stable.

btw my heli ----> V3 Lama ---> Honey Bee King FP2 ---> Honey Bee King 2 (wishlist ) ---> Compy300 / Belt CP (wishlist too)

before i tot CP is easy to play coz its 450 class, but after my sifu and some of others owner of BELT CP i seen, now i noe how nightmare is belt CP , but its price and its size.. really tempting drool.gif

i would suggest you to try Honey Bee king (FP2) 4 channel first.
first its not a coaxial anymore, for your infromation, coaxial and the 6 channel heli you are going to play is definately diff things, you cant learn anything from co-axial 4 channel to play those 6 channel ( Front blade n Behind blade one )
so Honey bee King FP2 , is suitable for pre-6 channels i think. just my 2 cents smile.gif

anyway just discuss wit RC kakis frens today.

compare to others, Look like Belt CP is not a good choice for 450 class.
it come wit E-Sky TX wit price rm 700 which stated "RTF"
but after you change CNC rotor set, CNC head and other upgrades like FUTABA TX it cost like rm 1.5k to rm 2k.

for that $$ , A completed TREX cost like rm 2.5k. so its better to get TREX if you are serious in RC heli
btw Dont expect BELT CP stock setting can do you a 3d fly, sometimes Hover'ing a Stock Belt CP is a hard job too. Even for a experienced one.

so i'd to stick to class 300 first XD

where do you stay? Mayb i can help you if its minor problem, but complicated problem you can visit to BTHO Flying site, lots of sifus here willing to help out.

Btw about that software, do you have a cable connect to PC? if you dont hav you can purchase 1 at around rm 30.
And software you have to donwload yourself, the most basic software and free one is FMS. google it out and download it, its free.

acutally going forward/backwards oni? is settable, either set with your Transmitter. If transmitter set to maximum still going 1 side, you can adjust on the Helicopter.

so how do your heli slides? If front, u can adjust on the Remote slightly counter back with the moveable thing beside the stick.
same goes to Slide to right, left. Just counter them.

If you tried it even set to the max on your transmitter but still not enough to counter them, you can adjust the Linkage on the helicopter.

if it goes backward alot it cant be adjusted on the radio.. u have to look at the swashplate... make sure it's 90 degree as possible.

and yes All LAMA ( Co axial are good for beginners to learn orientations )

btw , according your LAMA v4 problem, goes backward ya?
ok about the trimmer how it works

did u see the little moveable thing beside the both joystick?
i dono whether your using Mode1 or mode2

most hobby shop selling Mode1 Transmitter,
Its Throttle and Aleron at right, Rudder and elevator at left. Ya?

so if your Heli is moving backward, That mean your Elevator is "too backward" , so set the Left side, Straight one "I" moveable stick to Front, slowly adjust until your heli stable.

Every Moveable stick shud put to Middle at the first time u play the heli, except Throttle one, its recommended to set to lowest.
and after adjust your moveable stick like what i said to achieve balance so u can release your hand and ur heli is still stable smile.gif


BTW I JUST GOT MY NEW ESKYHONEY BEE TODAY WOOHARRRR smile.gif
release hand 10-15 seconds still can maintain stable, wat a nice heli thumbup.gif

for coaxial heli i think the 'counter by finger' is not needed most of the time since its toooo way stable unless your setting goes wrong,ya?
but for FP or CP class, yea u always nid to counter wit ur own finger, thats the FUN OF THE HELI yay! now i get bored wit my Lama smile.gif

whats your heli?
your first Heli is 6-channel CP heli?

i highly recommended to get Esky if your thinking to get Lama, because esky spare part can be found easily in kl/selangor/any hobby shop.

btw, you should upgrade to FP or CP, coaxial is enuf. just 1 Coaxial is enuf, just my 2cent

hi all experts,

i'm a beginner.. i've bought belt-cp past 2 months.. i've crashed twice.. first crashed i sent to repair and parts replacement that cost me about rm80..
2nd crashed was just the blade and mainshaft.. i've replaced the carbon fiber main bladees, mainshaft and feathering shaft by myself.. other parts seems ok so i just leave it..

now whenever i throttle from slow spinning my heli keep vibrating.. but when i throttle up to higher speed and heli start fyling it seems ok and stable..

anyone know what's the problem? do you guyz think cuase of unbalance main blade?

helo, may i noe your location?

As what i heard/know, belt cp is quite a wild beast too if its your first heli, of coz if you are a experienced RC heli pilot ( dont count those co-axials Heli ) , that should be no prob, but the problem of setting up a CP plane is still quite hard for most ppl.

so, stop playing for now, until you can find a sifu beside u and set for you, well. stop going for hobby shop i suggest you, try to find the nearest flying site , and join them and seek for sifu to help you.

yea market price for a v3 is rm 200 now, while v4,robins,commanche is all around rm 250. they share the same thing the diff is the outlook diff smile.gif so i suggest to get v3.
btw laf that small heli to do 3d is a joke, but i hv seen some 100size heli doing 3d tho, but that would be costing you rm 700+.

if your going to serious in rc heli yea Please AT LEAST go for 4 channel. 3 channel is a toy and it will not last long for you.

btw Madcentury do you play RC too?

the main problem of belt CP is the tail rotor, very stupid design. if you want to mod the heli, this part is the first, maybe you can change it to t-rex tail rotor. the next maybe to install the mini titan servo mounter. so the servo hon can drive the swashplate directly, this will improve the heli response.

for my advise, if you want to mod the belt cp, you better get a better heli like T-REX, Mini Titan or BEAM. those heli initiate cost is high but long term running cost is much more cheaper.

one last thing. never trust any shop, until you compare all. remember some shop will take out some parts inside the package, that why they can sell just a little bit cheaper but not much.

well, did u find that when you do figure 0 or figure 8 with your belt cp, the nose will just drop?
its belt-cp common problem, basically its not a problem , its a design problem..
changing to others 450 head should help this , and tail rotor? err i nvr hear they complain the tail part. and i not really know belt cp much coz i nvr own a belt -cp, of coz i wil not choose it in the future coz its obviously not a good choice among all 450 classes.
currently im saving and wishlist : Compy300 + Futaba 6EX

Owned a Lamav3, Esky FP2 currently.

Hovering wit FP2 now. finish Tail in, Side. Left Nose in.

how about u guys?


Added on February 25, 2008, 12:23 pmOh do you mean the tail rotor is the Tail Gyro?

no lahhh, Gyro is Gyro lahh

i did not notice nose drop issue, the main thing piss me off is the stupid tail rotor design. go for better heli, much more cheaper maintaining it. you keep modifying your belt cp will cause you more then just buy a better heli. i dont know this untill i bought my BEAM heli. i m enjoy my flight that i cant find it in belt cp.

6EX Fast t ??? yoo i m using it. no need screaming around to announce you frequency. hehehe and i m finished tail in left right in and nose in ( not too stable ). now flighting around like a bird.

oh then you must be more experienced than me, coz im still flying a fp2 now
do u fly 3d wit ur beam? btw where you fly arr?? do u join flying site?

about the stock gyro of belt cp is very famous to Kong after few flights lol...

and 6ex is 6exhp, the still using frequency one la... fasst too overbudget for me since my budget is kinda low, still studying.
so i choose compy300 which is 300 class helicopter but the stable wont be losing to any 450 under mild wind.. (of coz not under strong wind ) doh.gif and i got sifu teaching me so i think compy300 should be last me at least 1 year or more than that.. until i twist the limit of it (compy300 can do many hardcore 3d actually)... then only will proceed to next higher class...poor me cry.gif

nose in hovering is kinda hard it always confused me rclxub.gif

I cant fly 3D in real life but simulator quite ok. my belt CP stock gyro is ok untill now, get the walkera GD11 is the best. prefect for 450 size heli if you do not have budget for futaba gyro. i fly at puchong with a gang of people.

as long as you flight high enough, wind doesnt really matter, untill you mention about storm smile.gif

nose in for safety, train yourself at the simulator first then only try it at your heli. as i said if you do not have budget for futaba 240 or 401 get walkera GD11, its cheap and very good. dont buy esky one.


hmmm.. i check the compy300 website, the tail rotor set are much much more better then esky. but the swashplate i not sure

Yes picoo Z is very stable heli but only with 2 channels, which allow you to go up / down, and turn left and right.

more suitable for kids to have fun, if you plan to get yourself a heli. You can get Esky Lama series.

Hi all sifu, I'm planning to get a RC Helicopter for my husband as his birthday present. From my research on the web, seems like the ESKY Lama V3/V4 is a good one for beginner. Can any one recommend me a shop that would offer good price + service? I saw most online shop are selling for RM250 at least. You could PM me if it is not convenient to talk about shop name here.. Does the ESKY Lama controller has a socket that could connect to PC for simulator?

thanks.

anyway just discuss wit RC kakis frens today.

compare to others, Look like Belt CP is not a good choice for 450 class.
it come wit E-Sky TX wit price rm 700 which stated "RTF"
but after you change CNC rotor set, CNC head and other upgrades like FUTABA TX it cost like rm 1.5k to rm 2k.

for that $$ , A completed TREX cost like rm 2.5k. so its better to get TREX if you are serious in RC heli
btw Dont expect BELT CP stock setting can do you a 3d fly, sometimes Hover'ing a Stock Belt CP is a hard job too. Even for a experienced one.

so i'd to stick to class 300 first XD

where do you stay? Mayb i can help you if its minor problem, but complicated problem you can visit to BTHO Flying site, lots of sifus here willing to help out.

Btw about that software, do you have a cable connect to PC? if you dont hav you can purchase 1 at around rm 30.
And software you have to donwload yourself, the most basic software and free one is FMS. google it out and download it, its free.

Hi guys
A noob here, and I just gotten my new Lama V4 yesterday. Have been trying to get that heli to fly, but having troubles, as the heli keep doing these things
a) yaw to the right
b) tails turns right
c) going backwards

I don't really know what to do, and how to tune the heli. Can someone pls help to stabilize that heli ? What kind of tuning or changes required on the heli to stabilize it? I have exhausted the trim controls on the remote (they have been set to max) thus it looks like I need to remove the body shell and start tweaking the rotors.

Thanks for the help guys.

Hi, thanks a lot for the advise, i manage adjust the swashplate properly, and now it is flying perfectly. I also realised that flying too low (hovering) may cause some wind-draft, it is called rotor-wash which will tilt or push your heli away. You'll need to fly higher to get away from it. rclxms.gif

Now i m getting into the mood, and plan to go for 4 channel Honeybee FP2, rather than co-axial, I want to go to single rotor with tail rotors. Does anyone know where can i get the Honeybee FP2? I noticed that E-sky website that they have updated the Honeybee FP2 with a slightly upgraded version.

E-sky Honeybee FP2

Any bros here can advise abit where can I get the Honeybee FP? Or is it better for me to go straight to 6 channel Honeybee CP2?

Thanks !

not to low la.. about 1 meter will do.. if i were you.. get king 2 or belt cp straight.. easier to upgrade and lots of spare parts.. honey bee not really that much spare parts to upgrade.. ( as in if your heli crashes then you can repair back) but if you got no budget.. go for align t-rex straight.. its more stable.. so very easy to control and learn..

Hi, thanks a lot for the advice. I got one more question, which Trex i should get? The Trex 450 SE V2 or the 500? I read from forums that Trex 500 is much better than the Trex 450, as it is more stable and can learn more from it. Trex500 is more expensive, and I do not know if the spares for 500 cost much more than the 450 or not. Is it worthwhile to get the trex500?

Thanks!

Hi all,
I am interested in getting a R/C helicopter but not sure where and how should I start? Can anyone give me some tips and what is the recommended heli should i get?

I found from http://www.rcsmart.com.my there are many types of R/C helicopter and getting confused. My budget is about 1K at the moment.

i oso got myself a 4 channel dolphin couple of weeks ago ...
now can hover and fly indoors without hitting too much stuff tongue.gif
my heli oso not hovering 100% stable even indoors with almost no breeze ... no idea about swashplate etc etc to adjust ...

now bored with it coz cannot fly outside due to wind ... thinking of upgrading .. go up to 6 channel or upgrade my existing set ... might not be worth it to upgrade coz upgrades will come close to buying a new set already tongue.gif

for your info, CopterX 450SE V2 is the direct clone of Align Trex 450SE V2, so basically everything is the same, but of course at a much more cheaper price.

oh, if that was align, then it must be 450. u mean 2nd hand bro? for 1.5k? actually there is a flyer here with align, but then when he saw us all flying copterx, here start to buy CopterX parts to fit into his Align. haha... coz everything is similar. can't comment much about the futaba that your are talking about, but i would assume that its 6EXP, personally i would prefer 2.4GHz, like the Spektrum DX7 that i m using, but if u are on budget, i would still advise u taking the DX6i (remember with the i). And also stay away from Futaba 2.4GHz which is known as FASS, coz the receiver is very expensive.

hope that might help u.

actually one of my fishing reel alone oso cost more than nitro/electric heli kit liauu ... almost rm3k tongue.gif
so if ppl start fishing and using rm20 reel .. i still layan what ... have to start somewhere and kasi poison kow kow ... otherwise the hobby will die off one due to lack of support and encouragement and oso snobbishness ... hahaha

now getting too bored with the esky 4 channel liau maa ... no speed and power ... cannot even fly outdoors with mild wind ... so need to get something else lorr ... even all the shop ppl are like that then i rather pay extra and get things online .. i cannot stand ppl with attitude unless they have something i desperate want ... and RC heli is not one of them at the moment .. theres almost nothing $$$ cannot buy .. i rather pay more than to buy from a snobbish farker ... hehehe

haha bro. no worries lah. if u want fly outdoor, 450 is the cheapest choice. i have actually compare 450 and 500, still 450 is cheap interms of spares, and the most is lipo. 500 need to use 2 pack of 3s.

woohooo ... i just got a gift 4G3 6 channel with metal head .. huahahahaaa
last nite tried to hover the thing ... crashed all over the place

apparently my previous esky TX has been configured wrongly ..
supposed to be mode 2 ... rudder and throttle on left stik .. cyclic on right stik
the seller rewired the tx coz it was in mode 1 default and get it to mode 2 .. it appears the rudder/pitch was put onto the right stik and throttle/roll on left .. totally was used to this config liau ... then suddenly the PROPER one that came with the walkera completely different ... have to relearn everything again sad.gif
hopefully wont crash too much laa .. hahaha

To tell you la....The esky lama Series are great helis to begin with, but...the beltCP's....they are so unstable, of course it is cheap, RM599 =P
but...you will be spending more on repairs than flying it...If i were you, save your money and get Align( Not promoting Align btw, just an advice)

My first Heli was a beltCP, I didn't learn anything from it until the T-Rex 450, which i bought last month lol....RM3k+

My beltcp ESC caught on fire when i throttled, so got pissed...

Hirobo, expensive like hell

Walkera, not so sure how is it...but i hope is better than a beltcp


lol sure you can come and watch when u got time...tommorow, we will be flying..but our sifu will not be there..balik hometown, not so sure if another sifu( super duper sifu) will come....

the 4G3 is a micro heli ... which i believe is the hardest to learn .. but its fun to fly indoors which the 450 can never do unless u are in a gym or something laa .. hehehe
the bigger ones according to alot of websites are much easier ... i might get myself a cheaper 450 size laa .. MAYBE tongue.gif

whats the purpose of using more than 7channel? actually there is no need to use more than that. have a couple of frenz here some with 9ch, some with 12ch, but when i ask them how to use the extra channel, they have no idea.

the best is to use 10 channel..good enough already, the response time on 10 cap is better than the 6 cap....basically is accurate la


Added on April 6, 2009, 12:58 am 10 channel is for those people who like smoke coming out from heli, camera, lights, take out tires etc etc.....usually people will use 12 channel or more on a turbine RC jet

trust me, the best is still spektrum 2.4GHz allan. so if u were to get serious, better get the Spektrum series. other than crystal free, response is way faster than those with crystal.

Few of us, including me, when we started out, we think that hell with faster response, we are newbie, so we got the Futaba 9CHP, but then not long, we all sold off and get Spektrum, no looking back.

But not the Futaba Fass 2.4Ghz, the rx is expensive.

prob located >> apparently the rear assembly comes loose after a few round .. need to push the motor in abit ... then press the rear rotor / gear back in abit
so to have continuous fun is quite difficult sad.gif
will have to look at option of replacing it with those rear rotor bolt on direct onto motor without any gears one laa ... have to spend more $$$ sad.gif

i am not going to replace it with ORI one liau ...
saw a brushless tail motor for 4G3 online this morning ... but not cheap at all laaa
the rotor bolts direct onto motor ... no gears

desmond .. need to ask u something since u got parts and play heli long time liau ... the 4#3b tail holder can fit/replace the 4G3 tail or not ??
if i fit a small little 8000kv brushless to replace the tail rotor ... i can just plug that motor cables direct into the 4 in 1 ??

ya .. the BTHO place still got regulars i believe
but most if not all of them oso know each other quite well already one .. and they dont like the look of small helis which i am currently trying to learn .. small helis can still play around in the house on a rainy day maa ... and lipo oso much much much cheaper !! huahahahaa

nvm ... when got budget and times get better i can always upgrade to nitro heli laa
reason i think nitro is more efficient in the long run ... charge minimum electrics = minimum lipo costs .. only PAY WHEN U PLAY ie. glow fuel only lorr .. parts almost same price as well known electric heli brands ... no need to worry about not enuff lipo when u are at the flying site .. not so worried about lipo becoming pregnant when throttle kow kow too much and lipo charge level and lipo life span etc etc ...

on set back is the initial cost lorr .. hahahaa
but times change ... who knows ... maybe i give up leh ?? huahahahahaaa

the 4G3 and 4#3 tail motor holder is not the same one .. but i think can interchange la .. so the option on which motor to choose and mount is more flexible lorr
change tail motor now .. 1-2 weeks later kaput same prob again .. will be never ending case of changing stock motor so might as well go BL tongue.gif

so the moral of this story is never fly a larger heli (that include nitro) if u can't afford to pay for the parts. haha... still 450 is the cheapest, and it had been confirmed all over the whole. thats why align still come out with the new trex 450 pro (v3)

Added on April 14, 2009, 9:16 amanybody have any ideas how to get the WALKERA TX to work in the PC simulator ??
i found some info that told me to do the following ...

WALKERA TX >> WALKERA supplied cable >> 3.5mm male plugs >> PC MIC INPUT
PC still could not recognise it as a joystick controller or any controller ...

in the mean time ... i am able to use my ESKY 4 channel with the ESKY USB cable to work with REALFLIGHT G4 and AEROFLY PRO flight simulator
would very much prefer to be use the WALKERA TX as that will be the TX i am using on at the moment tongue.gif

please be aware that its almost strictly INDOORS only for these type of coaxial heli unless u are flying in NO WIND condition outdoors tongue.gif

there are alot of those coaxials around by brands ... the most popular one over here is ESKY i think
u can find them almost everywhere .. the V3 i think can get around rm250 or so ... the V4 looks much nicer and only costs rm280 ... hehehe
surprisingly there is oso AZTECH making them helis now .. the coaxial azteh can be found for as low as rm220 if u look around .. but with plain white canopy and body ... nothing visually fancy but it works just the same ... hahahahaa
in fact u can paint it to whatever color scheme u like oso tongue.gif

other than that ... if u plan to get into the heli scene .. there is nothing better to get u started and interested than coaxials coz the others will be much harder to learn and u might give up much more easily ... huahahaha
get the coaxials and a couple of spare batt for more flying time ... welcome to the heli world tongue.gif

if u mean RC heli .. it is theoratically possible for a HUGE (700 size or bigger perhaps) nitro heli to carry a 4 liter spare tank of fuel ... that should give it 1 hour or more of flying time .. hehehehe

either that or pay rm50M for a real heli ... many many hours of flying time .. tongue.gif

guys just take note, RCsmart items even though cheap, BUT its always unavailable because they actually dun have them in their stock list. that is just the way he promote his business, so just beware, and dun ever wait for it as it will never be available.

i have got so many customer email me saying RCsmart eh,,, price only xxx, can u give me lower than that. so i will politely tell them to wait, and till they can't wait anymore, come back to me. hahaha.......

I have checked rcsmart website. Apparently they only have the AR7000 receiver. I'm looking for the AR7000 Airmod

Another alternative is the Corona 2.4ghz module, comes with Tx and Rx, 8-channel. Available in rcsmart, compatible for JL model only.

Still reading review on the spec and performance. Actually any brand will do, but the condition is that it need to comes with the transmitter module (not the remote controller).

I'm working on a DIY remote controller project, with no. of channel depends on the type of Tx/Rx module use. Basically can go up to as high as 9-channel (with AR9000), or even higher.

uniquexme, do you have any plan to bring in the joysticks? slider?

there are alot of those coaxials around by brands ... the most popular one over here is ESKY i think
u can find them almost everywhere .. the V3 i think can get around rm250 or so ... the V4 looks much nicer and only costs rm280 ... hehehe
surprisingly there is oso AZTECH making them helis now .. the coaxial azteh can be found for as low as rm220 if u look around .. but with plain white canopy and body ... nothing visually fancy but it works just the same ... hahahahaa
in fact u can paint it to whatever color scheme u like oso tongue.gif

other than that ... if u plan to get into the heli scene .. there is nothing better to get u started and interested than coaxials coz the others will be much harder to learn and u might give up much more easily ... huahahaha
get the coaxials and a couple of spare batt for more flying time ... welcome to the heli world tongue.gif

i heard the copterX 450SE V2 is a clone and can use almost all parts from align too .. at a much cheaper price with about the same performance (from orang putih RC forums la)
kit comes without some necessary parts .. u will need to purchase additional parts (electronics mostly) and a controller/transmitter(TX) and receiver(RX) to make make it fly ... transmitters are not cheap depending on which ones u choose of coz tongue.gif

i am sure uniquexme would be glad to help u in assembling the kit or just sell u the RTF version .. hehehe

but jokes aside .. i think it would be better to buy a kit and learn to build it as most flyers are almost certain to crash for sure .. so learning to build it in the beginning would help in re-building when crashes happens .. hahahahaa

totally agreed with Qiw, u need to assemble yourself, setup yourself, then only u know whats wrong with your heli when u are flying... a couple of frenz here, who is rich maybe, get us to install and set for him, so everytime he crash, he just ello, can u help me fix? muhaha.... once and twice is ok, but u know how annoying it would be to fix about 5 times a week, when u have to repairs urs as well....

as for the RTF unit, i dun think i will order anymore... coz its too heavy to send via postage....

Hi QiW,

Hi Sifu, I have a problem with my Lama V4 after 2nd day of ownership. The blade quickly moved and stopped when I try to straighten the blades with battery connected to Heli and transmitter turn on with throttle at lowest position. It is also happened when the V4 stationary on ground and I’m not touching it. When I moved the transmitter, V4 blade quickly moved and stopped. Any idea what’s the problem? Thanks!

r u using 35mhz? coz this frequency tends to crash in our area... it will loose signal.... thats y 2.4GHz is good. Did u full extend the antenna on your radio? how about the on the heli? i remember last time it comes with a long bunch of receiver wire tied up in a roll, try to loose it, and run around the landing gear see if it works better.

i think u haven't got ur tail set right....

put ur heli in normal rate mode. then hoover it.. if it swings to one side, adjust the rudder servo tray to the point that it can hold nicely in hover in rate mode... then switch over to head lock mode... it shd fix it... but i dun recommend u using the esky gyro. its a pile of shit... i remember when i 1st started flying, try to be cheap, get the esky HH gyro, end up i almost wanted to crash it with a hammer!!! the most important thing in a heli is the gyro... it can't fly well w/o a good one. We have recently tested the Assan GA410, very similar to Futaba GY401 on our 450 CopterX, i can say that it work very close to futaba, but only at RM200... i guess ur Esky HH is about that price rite? give it a try and u will thank me on it.

Yeap, I'm using 35mhz. Maybe you are right. Last night I brought my V4 to seller workshop for checking and no problem at his area but he still did do some tuning to the 4 in 1 controller. When I brought back, I'm still having problem. I’m wondering why I do not have this problem on first day. I'm a beginner so I crashed my V4 few times. Is it the reason why my V4 went mad? I will try out your advice tonight. Thanks for your help!

see. try to stay away from 35mhz if possible as this is the killer frequency.. at 1st we didn't realise, but then a few flyer with that frequency always yelling when they fly their planes here... haha..... if u want smaller co-axial, i would really recommend u the walkera lama 2 from my store.. i have one myself, its very fun. charging time 20-30mins, fly time about 10mins, best still the lipo is cheap @ RM30 coz it uses 1cell. and it DOESN'T blade strike like esky... i even try to do a funnel with this thing,. crazy....

Is it possible to upgrade the 35mhz to 2.4ghz freq? I doubt it...hehe
This is my first RC Hellicopter and I plan to upgrade to bigger Helli once I know how to control the Helli well.
Intially I want to get the E-sky Belt cp but the seller adviced me to get the Lama V4 first. Learn how to fly first before get the bigger one.

well, no way u can upgrade it, keke... since the 4-in-1 is build in... well, this is a rather hard question... co-axial is basically for fun. u can't learn anything from it actually since it can hover hand free...

whatever u guys choose, just stay away from esky because its total crap... i know it because i flew it when i 1st started out with heli. get a decent cnc head 450, and stick to flying it, as its the cheapest. i would recommend u the CopterX 450, it comes with cnc head! And get a decent gyro, the Assan is the one that i recommend. do take note that copterx part price is either similar or i shd say cheaper than Esky.

nvm ... i oso made the same mistake laa ... i bought an ESKY DAUPHIN 4 channel in FEB ... flew it around the house and then took it outside to try and fly oso then of coz the wind took it and smashed it around la .. hahaha
in the house no probs ... can land on a plastic chair oso .. hahahaha
but my knowledge in heli quite limited that time ... so just buy something to have fun with ... now that the poison has SUNK IN ... trying to learn more ...
then i made my 2nd mistake ... buying a small micro CP heli to fly .. its just about the hardest CP to learn with for a beginner coz its too sensitive ... i think buying a 450 size heli is the best next step u can do .. altho initial costs is quite expensive ... hahahahaa

my midro heli (u can check out uniquexme store) is the walkera 4G3 ... small twitchy bugger ... smashed 3 sets of blades with it already ... hahahahaa

One of my V4 blade was cracked and only use loctite to glue it nia. I have a spare from mfg but dowan to use it yet…hehe…I got enough space to play my V4 but the problem is a lot of small plant around! I always hit the plant and fall to the ground…..Trex 250 looks nice to me, same size as Lama V4. But too expensive, around RM1.3K just for the helli nia….transmitter not included.

I’m thinking to change my V4 body looks like Trex 250 and upgrade some parts to a better quality part so it won’t damage easily when crash. Problem is I don’t know where to find the extreme part in Penang.

i think u guys got it wrong. the trex250 comes with servo, gyro, motor, esc rite? i remember i saw its like that...

but my advise if dun waste money on xtreme, and dun ask me y, coz i spend a hell lot when xtreme just came out for lama v3, every single part is upgraded, end up selling away, just remember this is just a toy, 450 and above is serious big boy toy... 250, i wouldn't recommend, the smallest is 450. coz its already hard to fly for alot of newbie....

see, i m right.. it comes with servo, motor, esc, gyro, here, u save quite some money. i heard the gyro is good leh... just rx and tx... and lipo, i would say its a good buy. but bear in mind, this heli size is not for beginner, no joke.. and well, i might be wrong, the tail seems to have a slight problem.

walkera coming out with ESC/flea for the 4G3 tail or not ???
i read in forum got ppl testing for walkera but 2g tail ... if true hopefully it comes out real quick laa .. i havent ordered the tail Bl setup yet la ... usd65 is expensive leh for those current customised ones

my next heli will be at least size 450 one liau la ... dont wanna see the 250 tongue.gif
actually if CX450 ... rm1k for heli and electronics ... rm1.3k for tx/rx ... another 500 for batt and charger to start off with ... more worth it than 250 leh
250 align .. 1.3k + 1.3k tx/rx + 500 batt/charger but dunno about crash parts price la ... knowing its an ALIGN surely will not be cheap liau ... hahahahaa

it should be able to open and sweep the wings in flight, but somehow i think its the piano wire that i used, its too thin, thereby somehow it got stuck. hahaha.... so normally we open the wing to take off, and when up in the air, we sweep it... the difference i notice is the roll is super small and fast,, like a drill. its fun.. i really like this parkjet

Had you ever thinking of taking off the stock RX & TX for your 4G3, and replace with a better RX & TX such as Futaba, JR, etc?

YES ... but i am a beginner ... have to consider alot of things b4 investing
the knowledge and the know how as well as the ability are not within my grasp yet ..

its the same like why not buy a ferrari to improve your driving skills ... forever use a knacil how to improve kinda thing la
cost of ferrari .. the know how to maintain a ferrari .. the ability to fully control a ferrari as well ... hehehe tongue.gif

but i am sure u get what i mean laa ... i wanna at least bet able to do some FF flights with my super small CP heli b4 taking the next step
either that or abandon the 4g3 project and buy another heli lorr

ps .. walkera RX does not bind with other brand TX altho they are all on the 2.4ghz wagon
so need to do alot of mods ... uniquexme oso considered using his DX7 with the walkera but too many mods to do and he deemed not worth it .. hehehe

there is a programmable walkera 2.4ghz tx rx set thats works with all walkera 2.4ghz which is about the price of a futaba 7C already ... worth it ?? tongue.gif

For those beginner who interested in Heli can try out 1st rather then buy a 2k heli..
then so hard to play.. expansive to maintain.. then giv up liao... wasted 2k.. sweat.gif
At least if buy Esky then not interested to play also not rugi so much mar.. whistling.gif

Last month I went to this Graffiti Hobby @ Time Square,
A person there named Jacky intro me a clone of Trex450 & CopterX selling at RM550++ and a JR DXS7 @ RM1200++.
Maybe for those who are interested may check it out.
Anyway, I had also recently got my Trex, and I just transfer the electronics of my Belt CP to it. That will saves a lot of $$, before slowly upgrade part by part.
If can try to get a good TX such as Spektrum of JR.

Anyone got any review of Balance Charger and discharger?

Ya, I checked hobbycity, they ran out of stock. Just asking if anyone seen it in our local store before I get it from them. It cost about RM110~RM120 including shipping. If it's around that price, I might just get it here.

I saw the clone is 99% like Align 450. The only different i notice is that clone no the align wording only.

You should check on the Trex Clone.
No offense but at lest the price is about of the 4G3 V2. So if you already got the Belt CP, it saves a lot of $$ too.
I saw people using all Belt CP electronics (TX, RX, Servos, Gyro, Lipo, Motor, ESC) on the clone Trex 450.

When you get 1, don't let them assemble for you, just get a pre-assembled brand new in box.
At least you'll understand how the heli works + they can't be cheating you by taking some of the extra stuffs off the kit.

copterX is one of the TREX clones around maaa ...
in the US market alot of CHEAPER TREX clones but have to import in yourself la if u want ..
one of the cheapest 450 size i heard is about USD36 or so for the kit then u have to add shipping etc etc ... but plastic parts la not like the copterX .. hehehehe

yaa ... price of the copterX kit is actually CHEAPER than the 4G3 V2 .. hahaha
but its a different thing .. u cannot play 450 size anywhere u like maa .. tongue.gif
and if u can fly the 4G3 then u can fly almost any heli liau i read tongue.gif

I was told my a friend here saying other shops in Sarawak selling RM550.. but when i ask if its copterX, he said yes.... End up they still bought from me at RM590, which makes me wonder if its really CopterX...

so there are basically a lot of Align clone out there... but i have flown only CopterX and 3DX. that 3DX is far away from Align. others i know claim to be clone, but somehow if u look carefully, the frame is different... But the sellers, even the manufacturers said that they are align compatible.. oh.. make sure u guys check out the price of the spare parts of what ever brand heli u are getting... i have survey and seen some heli, they sell the kit pretty cheap, but spare parts are scary... its all up to u guys to choose and fly.

No doubt there's a lot of clone out there.
I've also asked the Graffiti about CopterX but they don't sell it.
I think the other clone which they are selling @ RM550 have better profit margin, but that's their business problem.

But for an intermediate flyer, don't care about is it clone or not, as long as is cheap and spare parts available.
I'm not sure if the align/copterX parts is compatible with the other clone, but the salesperson said it is, and i did compare with a Trex and they look the same, the only different is the "Align" wording and the finishing of the parts. Is like looking at the Daihatsu Mira with Produa Kancil.

QiW let me know if your 4G3 is good in flying indoor. But I found the spare parts quite expensive. Correct me if I'm wrong. Thinking of getting 1 in future if the price is resonable.

uniquexme, you look cool in your heli flying clips. How much you do for your hair?

I'm not sure if the align/copterX parts is compatible with the other clone, but the salesperson said it is, and i did compare with a Trex and they look the same, the only different is the "Align" wording and the finishing of the parts. Is like looking at the Daihatsu Mira with Produa Kancil.

QiW let me know if your 4G3 is good in flying indoor. But I found the spare parts quite expensive. Correct me if I'm wrong. Thinking of getting 1 in future if the price is resonable.

uniquexme, you look cool in your heli flying clips. How much you do for your hair?

The clone unit is compatible with Align original part, i believe they only sell the kit.. part used back align.
Saw them assemble 1 unit for their customer but esc all using align part.. brows.gif

The 4G3 unit is superb in flying indoor, Graffiti also got sale them, they demo in the shop.. Look really nice but the part is expansive oh.. rclxub.gif

hahaha ... already mentioned i am eye-ing the copterX liau maa
oso mentioned ... got kits which can be ordered for usd36 ... which is plastics laa .. oso got lots of clones out there

so far from my reading .. copterX is 99% parts compatible with ALIGN TREX ... so parts can interchange lorr if one feels another is better ... that oso helps in scarcity of parts due to ALIGN being a popular brand .. correct or not ah uniquexme ?? hehehehe

cliffang ... uniquexme oso got fly 4G3 .. he sells them oso la of coz ... hehehe .. u can ask for his opinion
i think if u not interested in power & 3D the 4#3B is a better option for indoors
i just wanna fly the 4G3 outdoors where those biggger helis fly coz they look down on small super micro helis maaa ... and oso show them can do mild 3D at least (after alot of upgrades which is the same as bigger helis la) ... hehehehe

IMO .. small crafft has much lesser force to crash with due to lighter weight so in a crash lesser damage parts (read that oso from alot of super micro users) but much harder to learn and control due to its "too sensitive" to control" nature ... so when i get the copterX it will be parking and build it up slowly project until i can at least do good hovering & FF with the 4G3 ... tongue.gif


Added on May 14, 2009, 10:20 amgraffiti oso got sell 4G3 meh ?? how much they selling ??

4G3 actually is nice for indoor flight ONLY for experience pilot who can fly 450 heli... parts no doubt is slightly more expensive, BUT the parts are not gonna be replaced as often as we do in our 450... in fact i have crash so many times, and i replace no parts, just blades... but newbie would find it rather difficult to fly..

my hair. haha.... well, on average, about RM600/ hair done.... actually alot of ppl have been asking me if i work in a salon or something... and others recognize me by my hair, even when we go travelling, my wife relative can easily notice me in crowded area when they get lost.... so its a hair thing. muhaha....

come to me if u want to get the 4G3, i still have them in stock with full parts support..

nicely said allan.. 4G3 is light, so when u crash parts are not gonna be that easily damaged... just like our 450 compared to nitro heli... parts damage is lesser. just that since its small, a small input gonna give u a big output...

i just finish repair my CopterX 450... rather bad luck lately... my hitec 65MG actually caught fire and burnt out.... so 2pc gone... i have installed the newer 5065MG Digital version, will set up tonite, and hopefully fly tomorrow...

i have noticed one thing... if ever by chance ur heli piro crazy fast... check your tail shaft... i have this problem with mine for about 1 month... which makes it rather hard to fly since u can't do piro flip, u can't fly with the tail.. and i open up the tail blade holder only to find that tail shaft is bend.. its really hard to see w/o removing the blade holder and tail pitch slider. so guys, if u have this problem with your tail, its not your gyro or rudder servo faulty, its the tail shaft.


Added on May 14, 2009, 10:31 amallan, that was a best scale flying i have seen for a 4G3, man... that makes me wanna fly it once again.

ya ... get the soon to be released walkera OEM BL tail setup for your 4G3 ... hehehe
but i heard it comes with 2g tail motor .. not enuff for more 3D stuff (according to orang puteh la) .. and oso terence said the flea would not be enuff to power the 2.9g
so i dunno what i might be getting for the tail yet .. see how much pricing difference but most prolly will get the 2.9g one laa since terence will be having a special offer towards end of this month for complete motor+flea+custom tail holder .. hehehe

hey there, been reading this topic and i kinda got interested. but now a bit confused on how to start... from what i gather i would like to straight away start with a 3d capable heli, not those like the lama v4.

so all you pro out there, which would be the RECOMMENDED brand to get, based on VALUE and FUN?

i noted that the esky belt cpV2 is the cheapest, is it any good? i've also been to their website they have one heli called the "KING" it looks nicer, but nobody seemed to mention it here..

anyway would like to join all you pilots out there =)

the thing about esky is that the radio comes with it is rather difficult to set. i.e. they only have preset pitch and throttle curve, there is no expo or D/R, gyro sense, etc.... and furthermore, the parts are plastic, so it doesn't fly that stable.... another thing bad is the gyro, most of us would ditch that gyro, so when everything is combined together... its kind of not that good...

as mentioned earlier, we found that CopterX 450 is the smallest size to go for newbie, and parts are also the cheapest amongst all the heli classes.. but if u want something to fly indoor, u can try the Walkera mico 4ch FP heli.... check out my store @ www.hobby-asia.com

Get a simulation first. Some simulation will require your own TX.
Try getting those with a TX for PC, example: http://www.hobbysportz.com/index.php?main_...products_id=430

ok ... lets assume u wanna start with something that is 3D capable
with helis its is almost unavoidable to crash when new and learning ... unless u super genius laa tongue.gif
so with a collective pitch heli which is 3D capable ... comes HIGH HEADSPEED (very high speed blades)
so when u crash something that is spinning very fast ... chances are u will break more things than a slow speed one
fixed pitch are not 3D capable but running at much slower headspeeds ...

all in all ... if u are financially ready for repairs and down time of a CP or 3D capable heli ... then go for it
a fixed pitch will be easier and cheaper to fix tongue.gif

i think mentioned earlier is oso the size PROs and CONs ...
small = lesser damage but hard to learn
big = bigger damage but easier to learn laa

small things normally cheaper than those big ones ... hehehehe

ESKY KING 2 ??
eerr .... parts not really cheap ... so better get a better chassis costing abit more but better for u in the long run
but its up to u to start with something u are comfortable with ... do some research around on what are your other options besides ESKY KING 2 ..
i am not saying its not good ... alot of ppl started with ESKY (me included) .. hehehe
as long as it gets u into the hobby and is teaching u something new then fine ...
but i would suggest u to get the honeybee FP around rm350 ready to fly if u really want ESKY ... it takes crashes better and therefore alot less repair time and more flying time ... hehehe

actually i started out my 1st heli with honeybee FP because my research on the google, and all guai lou said thats the easiest to fly... it is indeed cheap to repair and fun to fly.. i bought a king 2 at the same time, so i flew my FP 1st, while my frenz flew king2 straight away, he even remove the landing gear after 2 flights, while i still on my FP. so i must say, it all comes to how fast a guy can learn heli...

and one more thing about 450 and above is that u MUST have time and patience to do the repair/ resetting work each time u crash... i have sold many helis, and have seen alot of ppl quiting just after the 1st few flights. They are lazy to repair, have no knowledge, and thing that oh i crash, pick it up and fly again... BUT in my case, many times i pick up and fly. haha... depends where u crash...

oh one more thing to note on the FP is that even though the blade is plastic, doesn't break at all, but it gets deformed and the pitch will be different for both blades... so u can't use it also...

so if u guys want to save, here is a good tip. go get urself a good simulator like phoenix (my favourite), G4, Reflex XTR, or aerofly... just stay away from FMS as it doesn't help at all... then fly it like allan do, for about 2 hours/day.... until the time u can spot hover in all orientation, then buy the heli. But 10/10 are too anxious including me, that we buy and bash the heli 1st, then after cannot tahan, move to simulator.. another usage of simulator is for u to try out 3D moves, and to link them up.. so i must say simulator is a must! (unless u are so rich).... till now i also fly sim to practice 3D move.

And if u really must get a heli, think about radio and gyro 1st, heli last... u need to have a good radio, which i would recommend Spektrum DX6i or DX7, or the JR DSX7. as for Gyro, if u can afford, of course get the GY401, but if u can't, i strongly recommend Assan GA-410. I have sold alot coz ppl are very happy with the result, rather similar to GY401, but almost half the price...

happy hunting and dreaming ur heli.

hmmmm ... good radio
DX7 and DX6i alot of good to excellent feedbacks on forums
7C and 9C oso same ...
i suppose at the end of the day it all comes back to how COMFORTABLE we feel with the radio la rite ?? hehehe
i really dislike the ESKY TX .. the sticks with the sharp ends really hurts the thumb after longer period ... but for now no choice use it for sim .. hehehe

i can fly FFF ... backward ... inverted FF without crashing in sim .. tail down funnels oso ... hehehehe
maybe i just buy a radio 1st then later only buy heli ... just like uniquexme said ... at least i can use it for my sim ... hahahahaaa

another review i read on the ASSAN gyro is ... not consistent ... today may be very solid and good ... tomoro suddenly not working well .. maybe bad batch laaa
i have oso read alternative to digi servo 9257 but cheaper with similar performance is the JR3500 .. uniquexme got try b4 ah ??

My ESKY TX go nuts once luckily i was using Sim that time. All the channel shot up and down. After that I have to change it.
DX6i, DX7 or DSX7 is good.
I'm using DXS7 now, and it is perfect for my 450.

I use Hyperion HP-DS12-GCP for my KDS 400 (Clone of GY401) which i bought from hobbysportz.
It is good servo faster than 9257, yet don't need to step down the voltage to 4.8v.
I found that Hyperion produce many of good servo yet cheaper.

I found this quite useful for beginner. http://www.swashplate.co.uk/html/ehbg.html

what u do the the DIP switch settings laa ?? hehehe
better refer to manual and reset everything back ... at least it can fly and u can slow slow touch it up later
being able to fly a 450 is nothing compared to the headaches of this small little bugger leh ?? hahahahahaaa

just spektrum the bugger la ... ESC and BL motors and settings will then become a prob of the past .. tongue.gif

Not so easy for the paint to stick on the polished finishing of most cabin. Have to use sand paper to make the surface rough but then it will make the surface uneven for gloss finishing.

So, what kind of blades you guys use for flying? wood, glass fiber, or carbon fiber?

i destroyed 2 sets of the ORI blades that came with the heli
then the last round destroyed another set of wooden ones .. during that time oso destroyed swashplate ball .. hahahaha

wooden ones are better for beginners coz heavy and will act as a heavier flybar ... hehehe

How much is the 450 pro? I think it is not cheap, right?
Plan to get my first outdoor helli before end of the year! I owned an indoor lama v4 and still at learning stage blush.gif I broke my original blade few days ago and changed to the new spare blade. I have learned a lot of things for the past few weeks.....learned how to adjust the gain and proportional pot, swash plate, stabilizer and more. Lately my lama facing TBE problem and managed to solved it by adjust the link of the stabilizer bar.

I'm aiming CopterX, Trex450 and Thunder Titan. I think Trex 450 is the most expensive...correct me if i'm wrong. I may get CopterX as it is the cheapest and also recommended by our sifu here. I will avoid e-sky liao... biggrin.gif

Acctually, any heli will do.
Original, clone?? As long as they can fly, spare parts available, and most important cheap.
Most important is the TX itself. Should get a good 1 in first place.

Must get in full set mah, only transmitter and gyro...no heli how to fly wor....play simulator arrr? biggrin.gif The seller told me good transmitter not cheap lor....at least RM500! I don't care about the transmitter, able to control the helli okliao....What is the different between the cheap and good transmitter? More function, more reliable, easy to control? Maybe when I become an expert flyer like u guys then only I go buy expensive heli and transmitter..... smile.gif

Not much RC shop in Penang...if got mostly RC car one.......If got time must visit KL......

What makes the different about cheap and good transmitter?

Good TX
1. can fine tune every part of the heli - To prevent from crashing (Saves a lot of money)
2. Is more reliable - Prevent crashing (Saves a lot of money)
3. There's more function which allow you to set if you have become better flyer

Bad TX
1. Cannot fine tune the setting - Bad for beginner as it is harder to fly = crashing (Cost to repair)
2. Not reliable as may "sot sot" specially low batt - May crash the heli, beginner sure crash (Cost to repair)
3. No extra function, can't even perform good simulation training

Conclusion, Good TX although is expensive, yet it helps specially beginner to fly better, saves cost in repair, will not freak beginner out of the repair cost of heli. Many people give up flying heli after few crashes. (Including me, freak out few years back because of the repair cost).
So getting a good TX is a must. If the brain is good, even handicap people can earn more money than a normal person.


No heli? Simulation is most important as is won't cost a cent after crash. Even experts rely on simulation to train stunt, so not to mention about beginner. Get a good simulation not the FMS. Must try in simulation first to get used to the control. Once I played a lot of RC Cars and it think RC heli is piece of cake. But I crashes more than anybody else.


Gyro? That is the important part to make sure that your heli fly in straight as it control the rudder. How beginner going to learn if what he concentrate is just to ensure the heli facing the right direction.


Heli, just as i mention. can get a normal (clone) as long as it can fly, cheap to repair and parts available. BECAUSE you already have a good TX and Gyro to ensure it is well tuned before lift off.

So if you are ready to play Heli, you must be aware of the repair cost after each crash. Just my point of view biggrin.gif
Try reading this, quite useful for beginner. http://www.swashplate.co.uk/html/ehbg.htm

Uniquexme, i'm thinking of getting some goods from you. Got discount or not?

There's a lot of Align Trex Clone out there, including of both you mentioned. Either 1 will do as if you know which part should be change to Orginal (Align). Just like Toyota cannot copy 100% from BMW.
Copter X 450 is a good clone and you can get in M'sia. I believe uniquexme can give you a good offer and more info if that. (Copter X main gear set should be changed to Original Align)
Be aware that those clone of Align Trex only comes with the kit. The other electronics such as motor, esc, lipo, or even blades have to buy separately. Which may add up more that what the Align is offer. Unless you already had those. Just my research on Trex 500.
