F1 180 Size Gyro Stabilized Helicopter - RTF from RotorScale - RSH1003-001
The RotorScale F01 helicopter is perfect for intermediate and advanced pilots looking for a gyro-stabilized helicopter in an All-In-One RTF ("Ready To Fly") package that includes everything you need to fly within minutes. Just add four AA batteries!
Constructed from a blend of semi-rigid composite materials, CNC aluminum, and carbon fiber, the RotorScale F01 features dual brushless motors and is built for agility.
An on-board gyro system stabilizes the helicopter in "6G" mode, allowing for hands-off hover to help you learn how to properly orient and control an RC helicopter. Independent brushless motors for the main rotor and tail rotor respond quickly to control inputs, and its advanced "3D" mode unlocks the full potential of this precise flying machine.
The RotorScale F01 180 size gyro stabilized helicopter delivers balanced performance and value for intermediate heli pilots sharpening their skills toward larger 3D aircraft.

Dual Brushless Motors Most helicopters in this size range use a brushed tail motor, but the RotorScale F1 features a brushless tail motor in a CNC aluminum mount. The brushless motor is more efficient and responsive, giving you better control of the aircraft at all times. |

Futaba S-FHSS Compatible Radio System A modern 2.4GHz radio transmitter is included and arrives fully configured to fly your RotorScale F1 helicopter. Zero user programming is required. The helicopter itself is also compatible with Futaba S-FHSS compatible radio transmitters. |

CNC Metal Parts In addition to carbon fiber and durable nylon structures, the RotorScale F1 further distinguishes itself from other helicopters in its class with the F1's CNC metal parts. The entire main rotor head assembly is made of metal to provide the highest strength and rigidity to withstand the rigors of 3D flight. |

Great heli with one minor issue
Would’ve given this 5stars except for one minor issue: there’s not low voltage cutoff on ESC so make sure you set your timer for3min for 3D and 4min for stabalized...read moreWould’ve given this 5stars except for one minor issue: there’s not low voltage cutoff on ESC so make sure you set your timer for3min for 3D and 4min for stabalized mode. Otherwise great heli, perfect size and price, quality construction and reasonably durable. Flys smooth, responsive and stable, a big step up from the 110 size with brushed motor, the brushless tail motor is very responsive great rudder authority. This might be a little too much for a 1st time heli pilot, unless they’re very very careful, it’ll get away from you in a blink of an eye, but also makes it fun. This is the perfect size between 200 size and 100 size, small enough to fly in a large yard or street,but big enough to see and orient to. Very very stable too. Just have a low voltage cutoff on ESC and it’s PERFECT. Just remember to set a timer before taking off

Throttle and pitch curves were not set correct and if it was not for a fellow club member I would have struggled. The heli is advertised as RTF and only takes minutes to get ready for the first flight. This was not the case with mine. Now the heli has had the changes made she does flight a treat and as advertised.

The radio is quite good for it's price and has all the required functions to operate the heli without a glitch. The F1 was packed as usual with very good protection and with the extra batteries ordered as planned. Done the start up as instructed and flew the little devil in the garage as the weather was too wet to go outside, if flew as advertised, except the 3D part as that is way above my skills, for a beginner it is the best you can get, with the possibility to progress without buying another one in while, I do have a few of points I want to point out from a beginner point of view: The speed controller does allow you to deplete the battery lower than 3 volts per cell without cut out and damage the battery in the process, the beginner will not want to stop earlier, or does not know it will kill the battery this way. For a beginner it would be a plus point if it included a Spider type of skids to help the absolut beginner get in the first few flights. The supplied charger does charge the cells above 4.2 volts, again, damaging the cells, for a beginner, he may not have a proper charger to do it correctly. The above points should as a minimum be highlighted in the supplied paperwork to ensure beginners are informed and take the necessary caution to keep those batteries in good working order for longer. Over all this is a little heli that packs a lot more than I can handle, well done.
