It’s recommended to start with simpler models if you’re just getting into the hobby, especially if you're not comfortable with advanced controls. Starter products are cheap and you use them to see if you are interested enough to invest more. From there you go to beginner products. Beginner stuff like Yuxiang F07 rc helicopter can still be high quality, it will just not be as responsive as an expert level heli, and might have safety feature for beginners. You are confusing starter and beginner. Starter like S109H rc helicopter is cheap just to try it out.

How do I ensure a smooth takeoff without the FLYWING Airwolf 450L helicopter jumping?


It's normaly that the takeoff can be quite sudden and forceful, especially if the throttle is applied too quickly. I recommend you gently feeding in pitch and lightly hold the stick above half during takeoff, keeping the throttle slow and steady, prevents a rapid launch. This makes for a smoother lift-off, where the helicopter barely rises a foot off the ground before stabilizing. If your model still jumps up quickly, try adjusting the throttle in smaller increments and practice controlled launches. If you're new to helicopters, it’s recommended to take your time and practice controlled takeoffs to avoid any surprises!

Why doesn’t this helicopter have retracts?

Currently it doesn't have this retractable landing gear, it’s important to note that this model doesn’t come with that feature. Because the aircraft is small, two servos and receivers are added to control the wheel landing gear function. This will increase the cost and make the aircraft heavier, so the flight time will decrease by one or two minutes. The overall experience is not good. Next year's new Cobra can realize this function

Why should I choose a Flywing Airwolf 450L helicopter over a drone?

At first, Drones are simple to operate, with their four motors and basic controls. drones will do things that helicopters won’t, they are just 2 separate things. this Flywing Airwolf 450L is an Airwolf replica, based on a short lived TV show from the late 80’s/early 90’s. No drone can replace Airwolf. It was a short lived show with low ratings that left a mark on a lot of people. So if you are like me and this is something from your childhood, even another heli isn’t a suitable replacement.

Secondly, Flywing Airwolf 450L RC Helicopter isn’t a starter heli, it’s beginner. You start with cheap to find out if it interests you, then you can step up to something like this that has beginner safety features as well as the capability of more advanced flying. It’s not all plastic, it’s aluminum and carbon, so there will be less play in the movements and it will respond better, as well as last longer. Remember, drones are simple, 4 motors and props (more in some cases) and basic electronics. The helicopter has a lot of linkages, swashplates and servos that the drone doesn’t have, and that makes it more complex and expensive. But, it’s still a completely different thing to fly. Planes, helis, drones, gyrocopters, I like to fly them all. It’s all different and a different skill to master.

Thirdly, drones can’t replicate the feeling of flying a real helicopter, making it a distinct experience. Helicopters also often feature more advanced mechanics like swashplates and servos, which some find more enjoyable to learn and master.
