Which Flywing?

Flywing's whole range is built around one idea: a 450-class helicopter with the H1 flight controller, which gives six-axis stabilisation, GPS position and altitude hold, and a return-to-home function. Let go of the sticks and the helicopter stops and hovers. For a first collective-pitch helicopter that is transformative.

The FW450L V3 is the plain trainer version: a pod-and-boom 450 that is quick to repair and cheap to keep flying. The scale models put the same mechanics inside a BO-105, Bell 206, UH-1 Huey or Airwolf fuselage. They are the least expensive scale helicopters we sell by some margin.

Models come RTF with a transmitter, or PNB (plug and bind) for pilots who already own a radio. We also list occasional ex-demo and warranty-return units at reduced prices; those are marked clearly and sold as described.

FW450L V3 trainer
No fuselage, so crashes are cheap and repairs are quick. The best way to learn collective pitch with a safety net. Available in orange or green.
BO-105 Universal
The most popular scale model in the range, and the one we reviewed. Air-ambulance looks, four-blade head, surprisingly easy flight.
Bell 206 V3 and Huey V4
Two-blade classics. The Huey in particular is a crowd favourite at the field, and both fly smoothly on the H1 controller.
Airwolf V2
Everyone's favourite 1980s helicopter, with the same self-levelling flight controller underneath.
Questions

Before you buy

Not answered here? Email hello@rc-helicopters.co.uk and a pilot will reply.

Is the Flywing FW450L a good first helicopter?
Yes. It is the helicopter we most often recommend to someone who wants to learn proper collective-pitch flying. The H1 controller holds a hover for you, and when you do crash the parts are cheap.
What does PNB mean on Flywing models?
Plug and bind: the helicopter is complete and set up, but no transmitter is included. You bind it to your own radio using a compatible receiver.
Flywing or FLISHRC?
Flywing is cheaper and simpler; FLISHRC is bigger, more detailed and has a wider fuselage range. Both are GPS-stabilised. Our Flywing vs FLISHRC guide covers it.
What are the ex-demo and warranty-return listings?
Helicopters that have been flown for demonstration or returned with a fault and repaired. Each listing describes the unit's condition and what has been done. They are sold at a discount and with the same 30-day returns policy.
