Thanks for uploading ....now I know how to open to access the mechanics.
My pleasure @fklotaloi. Thanks for watching! Mark
cool - great work!
Thank you @Powershotknect!
Thank you for the video, I need to make the same repairs due to the fly away issue and that's another issue I have to address later. I'm having an issue getting the two halves apart on the tail boom. Feels like it's glued but yours just popped off no problem. Maybe I have to man handle it or find a tool to pry open. I just don't want to damage it further.
Sorry to hear about your fly away 😢 I had to remove 2 screws on tail boom closest to the fuselage and 2 screws holding the rudder/horizontal stabilizer onto the tail boom. After that, it separated nicely. Hoping your repair goes well.
It lives!
Awesome news Outcast247! So happy she’s flyin’. Enjoy, Mark
love the heli! wonderful and explained review! This review is worth 1000 times more than the youtubers promoting these helis raving about them, but not giving detailed specifications... is it possible to connect an independent receiver and variator? like a flysky?
Do you think the heli ESC will last more than 50 flights without burning out or failing?
greetings
Hey thanks for visiting Mickey RC and thanks for the props. I’m a newbie to RC and this was my first helicopter so I am not the right person to ask. Sorry. I wish I had better luck receiving a working helicopter from Banggood instead of a defective and unsafe one 😢. Always wishing others have good luck with theirs🤞🏽. Thanks again, Mark
what is best way to take off the trial rotor blade. I think I can use needle nose plieurs to hold it to remove the screw.the screw is stuck.I want to replace the rotor blade with the yellow tip blade .I try to but it didnt work. I will leave it alone.
Yes. Hold the rotor blade and prevent it from spinning while removing the screw. I hope it’s not stripped. 🙏🏽
The main rotor shaft is bent, you can clearly see that it is "jamming"...
Thanks Der. I’ve shelved this toy because it’s unsafe. Sticking to planes for the time being. Thanks for visiting, Mark
I'm working on replacing the drive gear right now. I crashed and it broke the gear and screw. I had to look at your video to see how the exhaust pipe fits in. I think I was doing it backwards. Where did you get the cap screw or did you reuse the one that was in it. I bought a screw kit but it didn't have a cap screw.
Hi J Wood! Sorry about your crash. Yeah, I initially put in the exhaust piece backwards but fixed it because the 2 halves wouldn’t align correctly. The exhaust piece simply rests in the grooves. Good luck on your repair and hoping your helicopter flies again! 😊, Mark
@emem1613 Yeah, I lost too much altitude on a high speed turn. I did get it fixed today, and it Flys. Thanks.
@@jwood9349 Woohoo 🙌🏽. Keep on flyin’! 😊, Mark
Anyone know what scale the fuselage is ...?thinking of fitting on other model....
Thanks for visiting Mike. The box shows 1:28 scale. Hope this helps, Mark

he's a friend of everyone's, there's a marriage in esc, write a letter to the manufacturer, let them recall the defective batch
Hi @Aleksandr_spb, Thanks for the advice but for this circumstance, it was totally my error. I freaked out thinking it was a fly away and cut throttle 😢
Here’s the complete 1 minute flight and crash if interested. Hope this helps.

☠BLACK BARON☠ How long does this toy fly? Or is it just another crashed ... Made in China Toy after 3 months? RC Tech Toy behaves sometimes odd in RC FUNKTECH. It's all about "Consume More".
@@black_baron_net Hi Black Baron. Paperwork and website say Flight Time: About 15-16 minutes. I never got a chance to fly that long since it was one of the defective helicopters. 😢, Mark
