Anyone Can Fly A Model Helicopter? The Electric RC Helicopter Evolution!

by silhouette15

RC Helicopters, one of mankind's the most fascinating invention,
grab people's attention wherever they are flown.  Not
surprisingly, RC Helicopters earned its place as one of the most
intriguing hobby to pursue. This fact probably came to be because
of the addictive, gripping and exciting nature of this leisure
pursuit. To add to that, the models themselves represent the
finest modern day miniature technology can offer.

Not long ago, very few have ever had the pleasure of getting a
taste of flying these amazing machines. For a simple reason -
once upon a time they cost way too much to buy and way to
expensive to maintain. Alas - many thought this hobby would be
and forever remain amongst one of those exclusive to the rich.
Also, some people did not like the smell of gasoline exhaust or
the loud noise of the engine. Fear not!  Those days are gone!

Most people can now very easily afford to fly RC helicopters
thanks to the tremendous improve of batteries, motors, and
general electronics in the past few years. These innovations
result in a new field of RC - electric RC helicopters - which at
the same time opens up a whole new realm of possibilities. These
include flying helicopter indoors and right at your own backyard
while at the same time causing absolutely no pollution and much
less noise. Moreover, maintenance costs which used to scare most
people now shrink down so low that it won't hurt your wallet in
any way.

Recent technologies also allow these new breed of RC to be built
much smaller than their predecessors. This not only fulfills many
people's childhood dream of indoor flights, it also makes for
easy transporting. Not that it has to be carried very far since
it can be flown right at your house.  The need for tedious
maintenance greatly decreased as well.  You can forget hauling
around heavy flight box full of equipment. If any repairs became
necessary, it can usually be carried out in full with nothing
more than a screw driver. Often times repair can be made using
bare hands.

Reliability of these electric machines improves greatly when
compared to the gas versions because they use electrical motors
instead of nitro engines. Electric motors come much cheaper, much
less tedious, and much less dirty. Unlike gas engines, electric
motor almost never cuts out like an engine does. This means no
more stalled engine in mid air!

Don't think for one second that electric flights won't last
long. Modern RC models use Lithium Polymer batteries. These types
of batteries will allow electric flights to last as long as - or
longer - than gas-powered flights. Moreover, when running out of
gas, nitro helicopter engines will suddenly cut out. On the other
hand, their electric brothers will slowly power down, providing
ample time to safely land.

Beginners will find that it's now much easier to get a hang of
this hobby. Whereas nitro helicopters can easily draw buckets of
sweat from learning pilots, these new electric ones prove much
easier to master. No longer are six channels required to fly, now
helicopter pilots can start learning at only 2, 3, and 4
channels. Some models even use two main rotors that turn in
opposite directions, eliminating the need for a tail rotor. This
means one less channel to worry about while learning. And what's
more, most of these beginner helicopters fly right of the box. No
more spending weeks trying to assemble complicated kits.

On the other hand, for experienced pilots, high-end modessuch as
Align's T-Rex 450 and T-Rex 600 offers high performance 3D crafts
that will excite even the most avid pilots.

Where once flying a small model helicopter around in your own
home was once a far-fetched dream, electric RC helicopters has
made that dream a very vivid and extremely enjoyable reality!
