Talk to Sir Gawain and he'll give you the Force Shield. When the copter drops round snowballs, bounce them back at him, aiming for the yellow lights. Each time he's hit, he'll crash and shoot at you. Jump. After three hits, he's defeated.
If your shield gets depleted, Dodge the ice missiles until it recharges.
