I just got one for christmas. Can't wait to take it out for a spin. Always wanted to try RC helicopters without spending a crap load of $$$$$ for something that I will crash immediately.
Things have got easier to fly since I bought an Align T-Rex 100, many years ago! The only gyro was for the tail rotor (not the best), but now, a 6 gyro heli.... for 50 bucks? Oh my days! Great review, sir!
Steve great video once again. For those of you who don't know, a micro or mini heli with that kind of flight time is unbelievable. The most you usually get is about 4 minutes with the Blade 70 S, and about 6 minutes with the Blade 120 and 150. The Blade 120 is double the price of one of these and is Fixed Pitch as well. The 150 is Collective Pitch and costs about $220.00 if you can even find one right now. New shipments sell out quick, same as the 70 S. I think this is a great Heli due to the flight time, and is basically hands free. Also, you will know if flying RC Heli's are are for you or not, without spending much money, and whether or not you want to buy more advanced Helis. To make these brushed motors last longer, to break them in, fly them for about 3 minutes for the first 7-8 flights, with a cooling off period, before you fly a full 15 minutes. Clean and lube the spur and pinion gears, as well as the main propeller shaft coming out of the motor every other flight. This Heli will also get you familiar with flight controls safely, before moving onto a fully manual controlled Fixed Pitch Heli. There will be a learning curve, coming from these self launching, self leveling Helis, to a true fully manual controlled Fixed Pitch Heli, where you control absolutely everything.
Cap you have done it again I am glad they have started to make helicopters more easy to handle I had to park the ones I have because they are difficult to fly. But love the ones you are reviewing. Keep them coming Cap
Thanks to you Cap', that's another item you've made me realise is an essential purchase. 😁 Everyone has white legs here in the UK as it's been very wet and cold.
Nice little beginner Heli! I purchased a First Step RC Heli 101 and it is almost identical. 15 battery, I purchased 4 batteries and that is a full hour of fun!
just the review i was looking for, thank you. just ordered one of these with the 3 batteries to get back into flying. then a good chunk of time down the line ill go for a 3d type
My guess would be to contact the company that built it. Just make sure you don’t write to them in English… run your English request through Google Translate and send that.
When I was kid many moons ago I use to put remote control helicopter on my Christmas list every year. My mum use to go mad saying : IM NOT RICH ILL HAVE TO DO EIGHT CLEANING JOBS TO BUY ONE OF THOSE . GO PLAY WITH A ONION 🤯
Same story sir. And my first heli is e130. And now its not working due to tail rotor is not working. And now i just ordered this k127 and expecting to arrive maybe mid of july. I work hard to buy myself a heli
Same story here! I did eventually get some helicopters but I crashed them so fast they were wiped out on the maiden flight after months of excitement waiting for my birthday!
The Eachine E129 is about the same size and price and can be bound to any Muliprotocol OpenTX Radio for longer range. Not sure if this K127 can be bound to OpenTX.
Thanks Steve. Yard looks good, but what is that stuff piled along the side of the house near the fence? (LOL) - Always enjoy your videos, even though quickly on this one.
I beg your pardon Captain, my Captain. At approximately 9:05 during your unboxing, you said that the included 1 cell 400mAh battery will give 30 MINUTES OF FLIGHT TIME??!!! Did I hear that right?!! Forgive me, sir, I am old and I have been drinking. Love your videos BTW. Cheers!..... MORE WINE!
That failed ZeroZero Robotics drone would be the closest we'd get to a helicopter with a built-in camera. Well, we can cross our fingers and hope in the future a manufacturer cater to that whim!
Also captain, will there be a fpv drone review coming up? If there is then please let me know, really waiting for some fpv drone review videos. Thank you so much captain for your time and effort, really great work and loved the video, like always. Sorry for the long comment, I just was really curious.
Hello buddy good evening! Really nice video but I have a question...Is it possible to take off and land this heli without pressing the automatic take off and landing button?
@@Dopedruide not sure But it comes with one tail motor & 1 main rotor motor Both upgrades . 2 sets rotor blades 4 tail rotor blades 2 tail assembly’s & 4 tail rods
Kids can easily learn to fly with little issue as they have great hand/eye coordination. This is why some of the first person video game players are kids.
The internet should stay like this mans personality
even if I don't like helicopters, I would buy everything from you. great review
@Thomas The Offroad Train nob
Buy one then🧢🧢

Get on phoenix RC or realflight, you'll be flying in no time. Nothing is more rewarding than flying a 500+ size CP helicopter, the sound is amazing.
Literally small but fantastic beast!!!
This was really nice. I'm not into helicopters but I'd definitely try one. Nice review.
You should he into helis mate. So goos. Rewarding, challenging.
Awesome video steve! Great little helicopter!
I really like it, the price is excellent
Another fantastic review by Captain Drone!!!
Can you do a setup video on this with the radiomaster tx16s edgetx
Now there is no excuse. You can fly a Helicopter at a great price.
Thanks Captain
Thanks to you Cap', that's another item you've made me realise is an essential purchase. 😁

I should move to the UK, perhaps I'd fit in.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 7C this evening when I was flying my Mini 2.
Nice little beginner Heli! I purchased a First Step RC Heli 101 and it is almost identical. 15 battery, I purchased 4 batteries and that is a full hour of fun!
The First Step RC Heli 101 appears to be available as the re-badged Eachine E129.
1 hour of Fun sound nice in the beginning but what does the engine says after 1 hour of almost nonstop power
Well Done!! Thank you Captain Drone!!
Fantastic helicopter Captain Drone
My top left trim button doesn't beep when japuis is this normal?
just the review i was looking for, thank you. just ordered one of these with the 3 batteries to get back into flying. then a good chunk of time down the line ill go for a 3d type
the flywing stuff?
Update on this I waited a month for delivery never got delivered so had to get a refund, I’ll have to try again in the new year.
Awesome review captain, really liked the video like always.
Steve can you do a under 5 min update video on dji fly app 1.4.3?
Where can I find a wiring diagram for this model? Mine has a couple of loose wires and I'd like to know where they go.
My guess would be to contact the company that built it. Just make sure you don’t write to them in English… run your English request through Google Translate and send that.

Same story here! I did eventually get some helicopters but I crashed them so fast they were wiped out on the maiden flight after months of excitement waiting for my birthday!
Sir can i ask if the transmitter of e130 will work in xk k127?
Nope, both very different.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 okey sir thank you.
Very nice. U make make everything seem so easy.
well done, what about reviewing its big brother the K200?
i have syma 107
i feel like it lost it control and very small and spin so much
i be think about it becouse it flies amazing
Can we disable the gyro stabilization mode? I prefer to fly it in acro/manual mode.
Usually beginner helicopters do not have full ACRO mode.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 ahh too bad, so I need to buy the expensives one 🥲
Another good review Steve
Thanks for showing us to helicopters do thinking thinking about getting one from Winter Haven Thomas
Wow the helicopter is very nice!!
Your enthusiasm with drones is palpable, I do enjoy every one of your movies! Why dont they make single propeller RC Helicopters with cameras!
2yrs later and They do now :)
Nice little helicopter and not bad for the price.
Kind of reminds me of a dragonfly great video
The Eachine E129 is about the same size and price and can be bound to any Muliprotocol OpenTX Radio for longer range. Not sure if this K127 can be bound to OpenTX.
Such a good review I bought two!
Hope you enjoy them!
Great review once again. Thanks
Great video Steve, but you really need to weed your patio slabs. 😀
Thanks Steve. Yard looks good, but what is that stuff piled along the side of the house near the fence?
(LOL) - Always enjoy your videos, even though quickly on this one.
That is stuff my wife constantly reminds me to get rid of :-)
Hey! Would you recommend that I preorder the new Hubsan Zino Mini Pro? I’m not sure whether to get it. I thought you might have an opinion on it.
Nice
I beg your pardon Captain, my Captain. At approximately 9:05 during your unboxing, you said that the included 1 cell 400mAh battery will give 30 MINUTES OF FLIGHT TIME??!!! Did I hear that right?!! Forgive me, sir, I am old and I have been drinking. Love your videos BTW. Cheers!..... MORE WINE!
I have to reduce my meds apparently. I should have said it takes 30 mins to charge up the battery to give you 16 mins of flight time. :-)
Was interested until seeing it needs those special batteries. Can't use a hobby grade charger. 😣
I wonder if there is any helicopters that come with built-in cameras
That failed ZeroZero Robotics drone would be the closest we'd get to a helicopter with a built-in camera. Well, we can cross our fingers and hope in the future a manufacturer cater to that whim!
Also captain, will there be a fpv drone review coming up? If there is then please let me know, really waiting for some fpv drone review videos. Thank you so much captain for your time and effort, really great work and loved the video, like always. Sorry for the long comment, I just was really curious.
Next review should be an FPV Drone review.
From india 🙋🏻♂️
class as always captain. i couldnt handle one a nelicopter . lol
Can I start it manually without the one key take off?
Yes
Nice colors
Pease HELP, mine won't bind after first flight, any ideas?
Mine is also same. Check and found left joystick faulty. Some sort of ribbon on joystick peel off. Put it back and good to go.
Nice. Helicopter
My Eachine E129 d'nt take off with insta 360 Go 😭
I'm torn between c129and k127
Which one do you think is better?
K127 is a little expensive
?
Very good review as always, Captain! Nice try with the Insta360 Go2 hahaha
Thank you!
@captain drone can I start it manually without the one key take off?
Yes.
Pretty cool
I'm still waiting for my k127 from aliexpress.. I'm excited to fly it high
Great little helicopter Captain :)
Bagus.... terima kasih .. infonya 👍
Final thoughts on this drone? (9:32) lol. Another great review cap!
Did I say Drone? Crap.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 yes you did. Its all good though.
Hello buddy good evening! Really nice video but I have a question...Is it possible to take off and land this heli without pressing the automatic take off and landing button?
Yes. Just flip the ARM switch (also known as the HOLD switch), then raise the left joystick to take off. Then lower the left joystick to land.
K127 rc helicopter nice
I wish they will put camera to a copter soon
Nice helicopter
My little brother wants to get an RC submarine. Do you have any recommendations?
I have only reviewed one so far, so no real recommendations: ua-cam.com/video/o8JmDEYjKzE/v-deo.html
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 thank you, I will look into it
what about the Spare-Part-Situation? Are there many Vendors and are the parts cheap or expensive?
Not many vendors because these are beginner helicopters, but parts do exist.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 hm k thx Cap
I ordered a kit from Amazon’
24$ 4 blades 4 tail rotor 4 main gear 4 tail shafts & looks like 2 tail rotor motors
@@larrrevenga49 sounds Not that xpensive are the Motors Bl or Not?
@@Dopedruide not sure
But it comes with one tail motor & 1 main rotor motor
Both upgrades . 2 sets rotor blades 4 tail rotor blades 2 tail assembly’s & 4 tail rods
It looks like the eachine e129 😊
Nice!
Awesome
Need bnf option.
Also me a few times land on my neighbor's backyard and roof
Eachine c129 or xk k127 ? Which is better. C129 like / K127 unlike 🙏🏻
K127 nice helicopter
I this better than echine e 119 I’m subbing so please tell me
These are entry level helicopters. An entry level helicopter has only stabilized flight and is very light with a long flight time.
I know no one will believe me but I learnt to fly helicopters since I was 6
