This helicopter is controlled with a 3 channel radio transmitter, so it can be used outside in strong sunlight, unlike infrared helicopters.
It has a forward facing white LED light, and a blue LED on the tail. So, it could be flown at night by the more intrepid.
The 3 channels are for
1) Throttle for main rotor blades to produce lift.
2) Cyclic (longitudinal) main rotor pitch - fore and aft. Travel forwards or backwards.
3) Anti-torque - controls speed of tail rotor. This steers the helicopter's heading.
This means if you want to turn a corner, you must rotate the helicopter using (3), and pitch it in that direction using (2).
The controls will need to be trimmed, and there are dials on the controller for adjusting this. If it is not correctly trimmed it will be difficult to keep under-control.
It is not the easiest helicopter for beginners. Some patience, and care, is required. It's not suitable for young children.
Forget flying it on windy days, or in your home. Mine has taken quite a few hard knocks without breaking. It is possible to buy spare parts.
The helicopter may drift sideways to the left, a little. This is normal, and is due to torque, correcting this requires some experience.
It is fast and quite twitchy, so best to learn in a wide open space, on a very calm day.
