Title: Newbie to The world Of RC
Post by: NottyHead on February 14, 2013, 09:29:29 PM
Hi,
I am a Newbie to the world of RC and would like to start of with a Heli. I have found 2 copters that I have read about and are suitable for beginners.

Sym 107G: - http://www.amazon.com/Syma-S107-S107G-Helicopter-Colors/dp/8499000606 (http://www.amazon.com/Syma-S107-S107G-Helicopter-Colors/dp/8499000606)

and

WL V911: - http://www.amazon.com/2-4GHz-Radio-Single-Propeller-Helicopter/dp/B00762BMOI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1360855005&sr=8-1&keywords=WL+V911 (http://www.amazon.com/2-4GHz-Radio-Single-Propeller-Helicopter/dp/B00762BMOI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1360855005&sr=8-1&keywords=WL+V911)

I am keen on the WL V911 as the remote is 4 Channel and looks nice with the LCD display. Also if I go with this Model and when I need to upgrade to the next version can I use the same Transmitter

Training Kit:- I guess it is a must to go with a Training Kit as I have seen them being used in most training videos on Youtube

Please help me with your expert advice. I will be practicing indoors initially to begin with

Thanks Guys. Also do I need to start by using A simulator before buying a RC Equipment. Are there any Transmitters that I can even use on my PC with a Simulator rather than have 2 different Transmitters one for the Simulator and another for the RC Heli.

I found 2 Simulators: - RealFlight and FMS

Dongle simulator available for 5$ on banggood.com but u will need 2 different tx as 911 tx cannot be used for simulator

You do not need to buy a training gear for the V911 :)
The radio TX is a 4ch unit. The helis you probably will upgrade to will require a 6ch Tx - this radio will not help on an upgraded heli (unledd you want to stay with 4ch helis) :)
