Asked by Wiki User

Although not having much experience with RC Helicopters, I have a pretty good answer: I believe, if I am not mistaken, that a Gryo (I think it is really called a Gyroscope) is a device which enables the helicopter to stay upright and not flip over, to the side, or any other direction that is what you want it to be.

What is the difference between a 2-channel and 3-channel RC Helicopter And which would be best for my sons who will want to fly them simulaneously?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

2 channel RC systems have 2 control units like rudder and altitude.

3 channels control 3 control units like rudder, altitude and speed.

If you buy 2 RC systems get them so they transmit on separate radio channels. 1 radio channel for each helicopter. That way they will not interfere.

What is the biggest RC helicopter in the world?

The Sikorsky X2 is an experimental compound helicopter with coaxial rotors developed by the American aircraft manufacturer Sikorsky Aircraft. It is considered to be the fastest helicopter ever produced.

Sikorsky has incorporated decades of company research and development into the X2 helicopter on a $50 million budget. The S-69/XH-59A Advancing Blade Concept Demonstrator showed high speed was possible with a coaxial helicopter and auxiliary propulsion but it vibrated too much; the Cypher UAV expanded company knowledge of the unique aspects of flight control laws in a fly by wire aircraft with coaxial rotors; and the RAH-66 Comanche, which developed expertise in composite rotors and advanced transmission design. Other features include slowed rigid rotors 2 feet apart, active force counter-vibration inspired by the Black Hawk, and using most of the power for the pusher propeller rather than the rotor. The fly-by-wire system is provided by Honeywell, the rotor by Eagle Aviation Technologies, anti-vibration by Moog Inc, and propeller by Aero Composites.

On 4 May 2009, Sikorsky unveiled a mock-up of a Light Tactical Helicopter derivative of the X2.

On 14 July 2011, the X2 completed its final flight and was officially retired after accumulating 22 hours over 23 test flights. With the end of development, the X2 will be followed by its first application, the S-97 Raider high-speed scout and attack helicopter.

The more sophisticated the Helicopter toy the more channels it will have. This channel selection can be based on size and priced accordingly. Two channel helicopters allow for 2 types of control, 3 and 3.5 channel will have these types of control speed and gyro stabilization, plus potentially others as well.

Can you use a TV antenna for a remote control helicopter antenna?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If the TV antenna was built for the correct frequency, it would work but my second thought is do you want the antenna to send a directional signal? I would think a "omni" signal (all direction pattern) would be a better choice. Most TV antennas are directional.

My gyro rc helicopter is working but won't move forward for some reason how do I fix it?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Try adding a small amount of weight to the front of the helicopter. This should offset the balance towards the front slightly. You can also try adjusting the trim of the helicopter forwards. On the remote look for a set of small buttons. They control the trim. Adjust it forward by pressing multiple times during flight.
