Top 10 RC Helicopters

It flies stably, the remote control is quite comfortable, but you need to get used to it.The manufacturer claims that the toy will help children develop spatial thinking, coordination of movements, concentration and perseverance. Most of the low ratings from buyers in the reviews are associated with periodic marriage. Not all radio-controlled helicopters work stably, some functions may not be available (lights flash, but the toy does not take off). Another strange feature of this model is that the seller often forgets to put the charger in the box.

Heng Tai ROC 3834 is considered the best option for children and those who are just starting to get acquainted with flying toys. This is a compact 4-channel helicopter with a gyroscope. It discharges quickly, but the autonomy is average. Thanks to the convenient remote control, even toddlers can easily handle the controls. The body is made of metal, the blades are made of impact-resistant plastic. As is often the case with inexpensive models, the assembly here is flimsy.A radio-controlled helicopter must be handled with extreme care, otherwise it will fail in a few weeks. An important caveat - you can charge the toy only from the remote control. Because of this, the battery charge is consumed very quickly. They are enough for only 3-5 minutes of flight instead of the declared 8 minutes.

He will be able to record videos in 480P resolution and store them in the built-in memory (256 MB) or micro SD.

There is a functional screw in the upper part, there are sound effects, but there is no backlight. Given that the toy is intended for children, a significant drawback is the high cost. Not everyone is ready to give such an amount for a thing that can be quickly broken. Also in the reviews there are complaints about the increased control range. In reality, control is lost already at a distance of 3 m. Also, buyers attribute charging only from the remote control to the minuses, which is why it is better to immediately buy batteries, otherwise you will have to constantly spend money on batteries.

In this case, you should pay attention to WL Toys Sky Leader V913 - this is the largest model in the brand's assortment.A four-channel helicopter with a classic propeller design and a commutator motor can move and maneuver in any direction. It operates at a frequency of 2.4 GHz, the control panel is quite simple and convenient, and it also has an informative screen.

In the reviews, they could only find fault with the quality of the plastic - it is thin, which is why breakdowns cannot be ruled out.

The manufacturer claims that the quality of the WL Toys V912 exceeds the price. The medium-sized 4-channel radio-controlled helicopter will be the best gift for children and adults. It is usually used outdoors, there is too little space for flying indoors. The control panel has a good signal range, and the buttons themselves are conveniently located, you can figure it out even without instructions.
