RC ERA C184 MD500 100-Size Scale RC Helicopter - RTF w/ Optical Flow Sensor

This little heli is fun to fly, had one crash ejected battery and tail rotor blade came off put tail rotor blade back on and reinstalled battery, flew fine so in my opinion they can survive some crashes

Love this little helicopter! Flew electric helicopters from 2000 to 2010 then took a brake until 2026. This year I wanted to find a stable micro chopper with great stability, inexpensive, compact for traveling and scale appearance. My first three flights proved this fixed pitch bird checked all my boxes. Nice and relaxing even in my backyard with winds up to six miles per hour. The stock transmitter is uncomplicated but gets the job done and scale flight can be achieved with small inputs. I’m very happy with my purchase and will be purchasing more batteries! I recommend the C184 MD500 for a fun heli

Purchased another brand but also an MD500 model. It flew great also but the tail rotor motor let out some magic smoke so I need to replace it. While waiting for that to come in, got this one. It's now my favorite of the five small RC heli's that I own. it is the easiest to fly as well as very durable. Despite my logging up over ten indoor flight hours on this RC, I've had a couple of minor collisions with a living room wall, a bar stool, the chains that hang off of the ceiling fan, the sofa, the recliner and almost got the dog unintentionally. The only damage... the tail rotor blade came off. Went back on easily and within one minute, I was back up in the air. It's been too windy to fly it outside although I did one time. Got a little too cocky and the 5 mph wind took it too close to the neighbor's brick exterior. Thought for sure my money had been wasted but surprisingly, just the tail rotor blade again. Definitely an indoor flyer IMO. Y'all have fun!

I am new to the world of rc helicopters and these smaller ones are very easy to fly and man can they take a beating. I would definitely recommend this rc.

Thank you for my amazing helicopters! I look forward for many more!

First, The price is right. You get a great little helicopter for $75.00. I purchased two additional batteries with mine. We have a warehouse at work with a lot of open space. This allowed me to test all the modes and fly it unobstructed. Quality of the MD500 and the vibrant yellow and blue paint scheme are outstanding. I've flown everything from nitro powered 30-60 size Schluter helicopters in the early days. And now I fly a 450 size electric. Even if you're a beginner this would be a great little indoor craft. Optical flow sensor worked great, very stable in the hover. I performed ovals, figure eights. practiced nose in maneuvers. Very fun and responsive. I highly recommend this if your a novice or an expert just to play around with when its to hot/cold or windy to fly outside. I've flown it in the living room just to get my stick time fix. very durable. I managed to turn the power off at about three feet high and it came crashing down. No broken parts or damage. it surprised me how tough it was.

Great service can't wait to fly it.

A lot harder to navigate than expected. Noy as easy as described. Not for a beginner at all.

I Absolutely Love this Little Helicopter! It's really sharp looking and flies great! I would highly recommend it!

Its my favorite indoor/outdoor heli. Easy to fly and hover. The lights make it super easy to orient yourself at a distance.
