- The FLYWING FW450L Airwolf 450-Class RC Helicopter amazed me! It's intimidating in size and sound but easy to fly thanks to its top tier GPS! The remote is programmable and I will be experimenting with is soon and coming back with another video showcasing some 3D! But this Airwolf RC Heli gets a stamp of approval from me!

Was I the only one that when the rotors started spinning the "Air Wolf theme" started buzzing in my head? LoL! GORGEOUS RC man!
Opportunity missed
same here
The sound started in.my head even before he started the helicopter
I know what I want for christmas
Damn it even sounds like a real copter too
That is simply awesome, used to watch Airwolf as a kid!
The sound is unreal
I've been into rc helicopters since the early 1980s and seriously since 2005. Wow, GPS, lipo batts, 2.4 digital. It's amazing how the tech is now. The price is on point because you'd spend that kind of money just repairing it back in the day. Also I think Dominic Santini would approve;)
Same...2 stoke oil everywhere...no elec nanny's...just skill.
Wow. Quite the improvement in controls over the years with this gps mode. Pretty amazing.
Simply amazing....I used to ''try'' to fly Kavan Jet Rangers with glow plug engine and primitive radio in the 70's...Did not pursue very long..Incredible what they can do now...And what a realistic sound...
Yup. I had one too in the 70s. Our technology today is so much better.
Same here, as a teen in the 90's that used to fly nitro planes and heli's. I'm amazed at how accessible RC aircraft are to people of all ages and experience, now. It's great.
my father was the first person to loop one of those. no Gyros, no nothing - proper nightmare to keep flying where you wanted it.
Yea, the old days were so much better. You could only fly them if you had skill and were willing to spend the time to learn to fly them. Now anyone can do it and it doesn’t take much skill. Now careless people and can buy cheap stuff and show up to an event and wreck into everyone else’s expensive stuff. All that has happened is they let the people with no skill come in and ruin a hobby.
OOOOOOOOOOOOO THAT AIRWOLF IS ICONIIIIICCC 1000000% would give that thing 5 stars on yelp 🔥🔥
Ayyyyy 👏🏼
I was waiting for the Airwolf audio tracks from the TV show. I always liked that show, I thought the acting sucked but the flight scenes were amazing.
I had a gas model decades ago, so much fun.
I hear you loud and clear. I was being a little biased because I enjoy flying drones. Helicopters are great machines to fly but not for the purpose of what I can use with a drone. I enjoy the birdseye view
I think you replied in the wrong place, but I bumped into it.
Drones are great for what they are good at. They are a lot of fun both FPV and line of sight. But, they handle nothing like a helicopter, so if you want to fly a helicopter, it’s not a suitable replacement. Drones will do things that helicopters won’t, they are just 2 separate things. For one, this one is an Airwolf replica, based on a short lived TV show from the late 80’s/early 90’s. No drone can replace Airwolf. It was a short lived show with low ratings that left a mark on a lot of people. It’s why the Bell 222 with retracts was one of the most popular helicopters in Internet searches for decades. So if you are like me and this is something from your childhood, even another heli isn’t a suitable replacement.
This isn’t a starter heli, it’s beginner. You start with cheap to find out if it interests you, then you can step up to something like this that has beginner safety features as well as the capability of more advanced flying. It’s not all plastic, it’s aluminum and carbon, so there will be less play in the movements and it will respond better, as well as last longer. Remember, drones are simple, 4 motors and props (more in some cases) and basic electronics. The helicopter has a lot of linkages, swashplates and servos that the drone doesn’t have, and that makes it more complex and expensive. But, it’s still a completely different thing to fly. Planes, helis, drones, gyrocopters, I like to fly them all. It’s all different and a different skill to master. Plus, I like to tinker, so adjusting the blades and everything else on the heli is part of the fun to me.
@@adamr9215 This thing runs from 800-1000 dollars... stop trying to prop up this dude pushing this nonsense. It is going to be fine for very very specific people but in general this is terrible for most people and the reason this dude is pushing it is because he is getting this heli for free and/or getting paid.
@@thomgizziz Are your parents brother and sister? I didn’t comment on the pricing at all. I was explaining to someone else the difference between starter and beginner, and the difference between drones and helicopters. If you want to talk about price, the first rc helicopter I built in 92 cost about $1500 without an engine, blades, servos or radio. And you needed about $500 in tools to adjust the rotors. So $2000 in and 40-60 hours later you had to spend $200 on blades, $350 on an engine, $800 on a radio, $400 on servos, $250 on a receiver and then there were still upgrades. So, $650-1000 depending on how many batteries it has isn’t that bad comparatively. But, it’s overpriced for what it is in the current market. But, if you look at upgrading another cheaper helicopter to have all the aluminum parts that this one does, then you would be getting pretty close to the cost of this one. But, I actually learned how to fly a helicopter without all the training wheels that they have now, and I do not like that stuff. I see all these new safety features as what brought too many people into this hobby and ruined it. We didn’t have the FAA making up rules when it took skill to fly and less people did it. Personally, I wish rc airplanes started at $5000, and helicopters at $10,000, because that would stop 95% of the problems that the rc flying world is having now. I also wish that the RTF, PnP, BnF would go away and people had to spend 100+ hours building a plane before they could fly it. That too would clean up the mess that exists today. So, this helicopter needs to be about 20 times more expensive, as should all the others. And it should come in pieces, not preassembled.
With that return to home you could actually land in a hole in the ground like the show by the look of it. Grass effect was awesome.
Wow super cool! Can the wheels retract?
Thing sounds real! 😎👌🏼
The Airwolf them was playing in my head the whole video!
It sounds amazing! Love Airwolf too
Do you love it to the tune of $1k
that is way cooler than the smaller electric one i bought years ago where wind would blow it all around and of course it had no gps mode.
It is because you didn't spend around a grand out the door for the heli with his link. You can get similar copters for much less and probably that. This creator doesn't care either he will shill that link to you because he is getting this for free and/or getting paid. There are cheaper places to get this heli for almost half the cost but again you are just a means to an end for these creators.
Love it! Missing retracts though..
Worth the money all day long, just for the nostalgia...👍🏾
Okay then buy the $1k heli and put a video up to show that it was worth it... you won't ever do it. This guy is getting paid and getting a free heli, why are you shilling for a stranger and company?
@thomgizziz He's not the only one. They are all Shills who get freebies and don't pay with their own money...😂
I am glad I found this video. I like this one a lot.
I must say ! "That Looks Really Nice" !!!😊
The takeoff of this heli, uncontrolled shooting up like crazy, was not really safe, I would say. You said you hate it and I agree. If you see this for the first time you can get a little heart attck! Otherweise nice helicopter to bring in new pilots!
So, I found out if you just lightly hold the stick above half.. it takes off a lot slower. lol 😂
@@Jays_rcgarage Ahhh, Thats good news! I already thought this is a killer machine. lol! Great that you found that out!
I remember learning to fly choppers...no elec nanny's...just skill.
GOOD FOR YOU HERO....LOL
I'll go and watch the video you've put together so well. It's the best.
i have two of these ..it does look like airwolf but there are big diffeneces in the paint work..also just be careful of the H1failing it's very common..other than that its a great heli...but don't go inverted on a scale heli it won't turn out the way you think..
H1 WILL NEED CALIBRATION IF THERE IS AN ISSUE IT'S AN EASY DOWNLOAD FROM FLY WING
There is a video on the old youtube, where it explains how to lift it off gently.
What do I need to type in to find that video?
I do like that chopper. 👍
It could literally chop off your hand.
Okay go spend the $1k to get it.
The normal and invert is probably for the controls some people learn to fly with controls switched
That is so cool! There's a video here on Yt that has a guy who spent thousands of dollars, to build a huge Airwolf replica RC chopper. That thing is a beast! Just search RC Airwolf helicopter replica. Cheers
Schwarzenegger: “GET TO THE CHOPPER!!!”
Thanks for the content as always Jay👌.. And bro you also look like Adam Sandler a bit im just noticing lol
Aint no way i wouldnt murder it out and tint the windows, or paint them too. Def would add a cpl lights as well. But i love this thing. Not bad for the price point as well. Ive been out of RC for a while and really wanna get back in.
Hey String, let’s go get the Lady…
Absolutely outstanding! I definitely would like one of these! Cheers, and how do I find one?
MOOOMM! MOMMY! I KNOW WHAT I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS! 😁
Never had a helicopter but i do fancy that 👍👍
3:37 that take off man !!! 🤣🤣🤣 just imagine if it was a real one, your ballzzz probably gonna stay on the ground for 2 or 3 seconds before taking off 🤣🤣
also it costs about 1 grand for this thing i have the uh1 version vietnam version cost me 800 dollars it is rock solid dji like the body of this copter you can buy seperate for 200 bucks more and install it its a pain in the butt to install i suggest just buying it off the bat.. do not mess with the radio settings its all set up for you
Now this one looks like Airwolf
Well i have this same heli for about a half a year now. It is easy to fly it is beautyful to see and to listen to the sounds of the blades but!.
Keep a close eye on the tail motor it is a weak unit also the belt and the tensioner. I have all of the above parts fail causing it to come down in a spin.. so its cheap to fix but the canopy is damaged at the end of the day..
Jay…I just stumbled onto your channel and I’m going to subscribe. Because I like your style. STAY COOL. Don’t act like all the other RC dorks (we know who they are) 🤘🏼
Dud your super expert on flying that thing
I would tighten those blades before you go inverted as if you add alot of sudden elevator it may boom strike? The blades should stay horizontal when held horizontal.
when you popped the canopy, I was disappointed to see no retracts. Wonder if they do or will offer a kit? Sweet lookin' heli!
DANG! Yeah! That take off is terrifying! LOL So much for scale! We'd all have compressed spines and sneezin' out our butts!
Yah, that's pretty bad arse!
Those are not called 'dogbones' They are called pitch links or control rods. Very nice video. Always loved airwolf. Be nice if the guns and rocket launchers were attached. Otherwise, its just a Bell 222 in black and white, pretty much.
Eh.... I would struggle to call a 700dollar helicopter " for beginners "
It’s a fair point, and good that he mentions it up front.
if this guy can fly it, it’s definitely for beginners.
😂 I'm a beginner 😂 I about to purchase one rite now . I'll put video in mine an drone it goggles an all . Beaf up the battery . Looking forward to getting my one
Maybe he’s using beginner to reference skill level and experience? Dont see how someone’s bank account changes either of those.
Some people's beginners are definitely different than others but I wouldn't spend 700 on any beginner Rc. It's a nice heli though, really pretty.
How bad would it be to modify this? Paint, weapons, seats in the cockpit etc? Would it affect the flight of this awesome machine?
Yes any added weights affects it. You do know the creator is getting paid to make this review right? He doesn't care if the thing is good he just cares that he gets his.
I would like to see someone adj the programable options on the H1 to better the flight.. Great looking heli Im thinking of this as my next one..
your video are so amazing
Hey Jay very nice copter with for the price it had retracts. I have a few gps copters myself all fly great. btw I really admire your yard very nice.👍👍👍👍👍
Hey! Thanks for the yard compliment 😎 I agree, I wish it had retracts as well. Really would make it next level !
Is there another helicopter that you would recommend at a lower price range?
Looks ace👍
And retractable landing gear would be nice to
Wow nice 😮
Noisy tail spoilt it i bought a H1 unit put it in an old trex 500 and now going into a scale body.
Superb.
Lo felicito estando caballero muy bonito dan ganas de comprarlo que precio tiene y dónde se comprá gracias por su información
wow il est juste magnifique , Bonjour de Belgique ^^
thats a good lock in gps as HU-1 has some issues out of box
I want one so bad just can’t justify paying that price. Maybe if there’s a Black Friday deal or something
I agree with adding lights what about retracts. I have been waffling between Hey and airwolf.
Any Nav lights or retracts on it ?
What is left hand flight control amd right hand flight control? Please explain me
Awesome. I have the 500 sized Airwolf with the H1. I found if you feed in pitch taking off, really slow and gentle on the stick, mine doesn't launch off the ground at all... it's all really smooth. It settles like a foot off the ground..
Is that what you do with yours and it still jumps up really fast??
That's pretty cool! How far away can it fly? Does it automatically RTH if you loose signal?
Great video 👍👍can you tell me the difference between fly wing airwolf and flish rc airwolf ?? Thank you
I’ll stick to my remote BJ and the Bear semi on the ground. Worst case you hit a dinner table chair leg….
Gorgeous sounding control
Nice air wolf
It would be nice if Flywing would explain better whats on the inside of these things when you're trying to buy one, i notice you have the V4 esc in that one, but ive seen some with the older esc😖😖 ...yes, we get it, the outside looks cool but lets hear more about the guts! I got so frustrated i just went with the UH-1 V4 Huey PNP because i already have the remote and 2 batts with my Bell 206, Nice heli's but they need to explain what your getting better, and it would help if you would explain this also. The belt drive main shaft also helped with my decision to just go with the Huey, at least the direct drive gears un mine would slowly wear over time giving me time to decide when to replace the main gear, not " Holy Shit!! Crash!!....well, i guess i need a new belt!"
Did you see the 60 yr old man that builta counter rotating blade copter and went for a wild ride its epic
Is the RTR with controller?? does it fly like in battlefield 2042? Is that the real sound or is that fabricated sound to sound like a real helicopter?
nice
Awesome spool up. 3:12
@4:40 it didn't really stop instantly, did it
? It looked like over a meter it kept floating backwards.
amazing rc helicopter 🚁
Great video, thanks! Love the 450 scale size! How much assembly is needed with this "RTF" model? And do you have any leads on anyone 3D printing the side gun pods for some enhanced scale looks?
Nice I just got mine. (havent flown it yet I also have UH1 and the Bell) Expo and everything is set in the software not on the radio. it comes in SPORT mode from factory, try NORMAL mode or add more expo in the swash on the Software.. You can also reuce the agility setting. You can take off slower if after spoolup you just nudge the throttle a little above midpoint, then it wont shoot up.
This is the comment I’ve been waiting for! You the man. Can’t wait to dial it in 🔥
@Jays_rcgarage how much did it cost
I didn't have as much luck w/ my new Huey v4. It had issues, I bought a pc lab top to do up the settings. The lap top came in today. Im in the process of this calibrations and gps corrections. does anyone have a helpful video on connecting the heli up and messing with the program of H1 software. I got to get this airwolf next..
soon at it took of the song started paying in my head
great vid. Im seeing some videos titled as a V3 and V2. Any clarity on that? I see no differences. Cheers John
Do you think they will come up with a Huey UH soon with similar specs? It’s amazing.
There already is a Huey, I've seen the video on it.
Nice flight
Great video beautiful helicopter. Does air wolf come with remote?? Thanks
It comes with radio,battery and charger. It is literally ready to fly.
does the gear retract?
Too bad it doesn't invert. It would make a hell of a lawnmower. lol
Hi... is that rectracble landing gear ?
Badass!
Hi Jay , Great video I was so impressed that I ordered one last week. I was able to use your discount code and received free shipping. Thank you. Do you know about how long it will take to receive from China? Thanks again.
Thanks! It varies. This one came fairly quickly. I want to say about a 7 business days. But I also ordered a tank from banggood.. coming from China and it’s been stuck in customs for 8 days now……
@@Jays_rcgarage Hey Jay I received my Airwolf today!!! Took 15 days to N.C. Thanks for the demo.
What's left and right hand control@@Jays_rcgarage
If I were a kid today I would never sleep
Walmart has then price tag $2,453.78 go to Springfield Ohio next to the pets eating people restaurant. On state prison Avenue..🎉🎉🎉🎉
Can you make it take off slower as that was a bit quick for me?
OMG I want one
Nice helicopter and video, but for how much it costs, no retracts.
Looks great, but don’t like how it takes off!
Awesome!!!😍
can you adjust the sensitivity?
Nice video, but no link to buy...
Noob question: Does GPS give it a RTH capability similar to a quad?
When was the better looking egg beaters out there.
Nice, what is the Fuselage made out of, plastic?
Yes !
@@Jays_rcgarageHmm, mine is fiberglass.
Looking to buy one. What’s the difference between the right hand flight to left hand flight controllers?
It's changeable in the transmitters menu. Easy as. No other changes to the model.
Mode two is pitch (up/down) and rudder left stick, aileron and elevator right stick... I've found that's more natural for Helis... Europe and the USA it's popular.
Mode one, the other popular one is pitch and aileron right stick, elevator and rudder left stick.
Be nice if the wheels were retractable.
