Chapter 2. Types of R/C Helicopters
There are four basic types of R/C helicopters:
1. Single rotor helicopters with fewer than four channels
2. Coaxial helicopters with two to four channels
3. Multirotor helicopters with four channels
4. Single rotor helicopters with four or more channels
2.1. Single rotor helicopters with fewer than four channels
This category includes helicopters such as the Nikko Skywatcher.
You cannot learn to hover properly on this type of helicopter, because it lacks the fore/aft cyclic
control. Also, the forward flight skills you learn on this helicopter will not transfer over to other
types of helicopters because you will not learn proper tail control.
2.2. Coaxial helicopters with two to four channels
This category includes such helicopters as the Hirobo XRB, the E-flight Blade CX, the Bla-
derunner II and the GPL Wild Wheels.
This type of helicopter has electronic stabilization circuitry, so you will not develop proper hov-
ering skills. They also do not perform banked turns, so you will not develop forward flight turn-
ing skills. You can develop orientation skill with this type of helicopter, though.
2.3. Multirotor helicopters with four channels
This category includes helicopters such as the X-UFO and Draganflyer.
This type of helicopter is inherently stable, so you will not develop proper hovering skills. They
also do not perform banked turns, so you will not develop forward flight turning skills. You can
develop orientation skill with this type of helicopter, though.
2.4. Four to six channel single rotor
This type of helicopter has all of the basic controls, so you can learn hovering, orientation, and
forward flight skills.
The information in the EHBG is mainly relevant to this category of R/C helicopters.
2.5. Summary of skills
Different types of R/C helicopters wil allow you to learn different skills.
