This is certainly one fun helicopter to fly and it looks amazing! Brushless motors all around and it has 6G stability as well as altitude hold.

    AHHHHH finally a company has started selling these kind of century style Hughes 500 helicopters. It's quite rare to get these types of helis
  • @steveventura5077
    These reviews are so wonderfully helpful and they help me make informed decisions about purchasing. I just ordered the red version and am looking forward to following your reviews. Thank you!
  • @stephenlane5875
    Great fun... thanks for posting! Yes, helicopters have a very narrow Center of Mass tolerance... for example the Jet Ranger has a minimum pilot weight of around 150lbs... but these days that's not a problem for most people....lol
  • @sumner407
    You make everything look like fun. This little chopper is no exception. Thanks for the review! 👍👍😀
  • @jtkent28
    I originally started following your channel for the drone reviews but I really like you are branching out & doing reviews on RC stuff too now. Great review on what seems like a cool little heli. I like how you attached the mini camera for some in flight footage as well. Well done Captain!
  • @FarrellMcGovern
    I really like that they are bringing out RC helicopters that look like real ones. There was the Huey, the Blackhawk, the small Bölkow BO-105 and now the Hughes MD500E, which is the lastest version of the helicopter that many may know from the original Magnum P.I. TV series. Very cool. Personally, I never liked most of the RC helicopters since they looked more like flying alien aircraft that anything real...but that is just me.
  • @192venom
    I’m convinced tractor man is a fan of the channel with how many times he just so happens to be in the same spot you are at the same time!
  • @ronaldgreen5292
    Really love the scale design and details!💯👍You make your videos enjoyable to watch, with a great sense of humor!! Great video!
  • @willrine8614
    Fun video ! 😃 Cool chopper. Gutsey move mounting the camera on the tail! 😃😎
  • @bigd2829
    That’s why I like manual take off because you can keep control of the heli as its rising and respond to any gusts that may occur keeping it centered and not drift into the pilot or something 😂 cool video!
  • @julianmclean3869
    Well done Captain!; another RC option to consider!; good to see Tractor Man back in action !!!; a very "cool" looking Copter, particularly with the amazing sky's you are experiencing and using as a backdrop; now, if we could just see a DJI Inspire 2 with a similar mother nature outcome !!!!!!!!
  • @bmac3394
    Very cool! Very awesome! I want one! One of my favourite designs.
  • @user-wp9mz
    I have a habit of doing gyro calibration every time I take off that is the most important step as far as I'm concerned I love how you go into detail people need to know this stuff lest discouraging when you're trying to learn a helicopter awesome videos
  • @kts8806
    Accually all the filming looked really good!
  • @randall1959
    You get all the really cool toys. The manufacturers have gone a long way toward making RC helis accessable to the beginners
