 For those aircraft hobbyists who enjoy flying radio-controlled helicopters it's usually just what a doctor asks for! Even on land you can soar through the controls of RC Helicopters. Not only is it a growing recreational hobby but it has uses in many professional fields Activities such as aerial photography shoots and remote inspections/observations. Here are some tips on buying the best one for your needs.

Using a hand-held transmitter the pilot was able to send a signal to a receiver in the helicopter. RC helicopters are typically constructed from carbon fiber aluminum balsa wood foam or fiberglass and are available in a variety of designs. More maneuverable models such as helicopters Collective pitch has more aerobatics but is mostly harder to fly.

The transmitter allows the pilot to use the handheld radio to control the throttle/main rotor speed blade angle loop control pitch and roll and tail rotor yaw. When properly controlled to fly these helicopters the same aerobatics techniques including hovering can be performed And the backward flight that a full-size helicopter can do.

Here are the different types of RC helicopters:

* Nitro (internal combustion)

* Electric

* Gas turbine

* Petrol / gasoline

Gas turbines and electric helicopters are developing rapidly but the nitro type is by far the most common.

Learning to fly a radio-controlled helicopter isn't as difficult as sometimes imagined. With the latest advancements in technology flight simulator software can teach hobbyists to handle their toys. Starting from a PC this flight simulator software can guide Amateurs learn a variety of aviation and maneuvering skills.

RC helicopters are complex gadgets that require the following equipment and tools to build and maintain their flight status:

* Helicopter

* Radio system including transmitter receiver servos and batteries

* A gyroscope or a gadget to control the tail of a helicopter

* Engine

* Exhaust

* Field devices that support the machine

* Tools for maintenance repair or adjustment such as hex screwdrivers pitch gauges glow plug wrenches ball chain pliers and small screwdrivers

The most famous competitions to test the aerobatic maneuverability of these helicopters are the 3D Masters in the UK and the Extreme Flying Championships (XFC) in the US. These events showcase the best machine and helicopter pilots from around the world.
