Radio controled (RC) helicopters

Model Radio Control Helicopters come in all shapes and sizes, both sport and scale.
Most people start with a '30' size helicopter, the '30' referring to the engine size, (0.30 cubic inches)
The larger '60' size helicopters along with the scale models are suited to the accomplished pilot, mainly because of their higher prices and rebuild times.

To get the best from your model, you will need a five-channel radio, and a gyro. The controls you need are throttle, pitch, tail control, forward and back cyclic, and right and left cyclic. The gyro helps to stabilise the tail rotor and generally stops the helicopter "weather-cocking" around.
Hobby Corner is also able to offer a helicopter-building service to all our
