2011-06-15
this is by far the coolest piece of swag I have ever received from anyone this one is from the heck they're from gigabyte yes gigabyte has partnered up with cyma radio-controlled product knew something something metal series three channels infrared RC mini helicopter yes using a gyroscopes s107 your own space in the sky special indoor design adjustable trim control rechargeable lipo battery and 3-way precision controller design technology interface gigabyte has delivered an RC helicopter to me so I told crazy Russian because he wanted to go do work or something like that that if he sticks around that helps me with these unboxings today that he can have vs 107 G alloy infrared remote control helicopter you can see right here is a balance bar a main blade and they main blade that is to say there are two main blades but I'm okay that's my line we have a tail blade landing gear a charging socket a power switch charging wire and and infrared remote control so remember kids infrared means that you must have a line of sight oh it takes six double-a batteries so yeah you're gonna want to go ahead and have like lots of batteries on hand for this you can hover up and down you can turn counterclockwise and clockwise you can go forward and you can go backwards if the helicopter rotates a whilst in operation a while so that is even the correct use of whilst I am very impressed please use the rudder trim to adjust it has trimming everything like that alright spare parts list yeah right I mean if you're actually gonna like buy spare parts for this thing you might involve it just buy a new one probably wow it's actually made of metal that seems like nugget I'm a little porn on this hole made of metal thing with this because like made of metal gives it a like a higher quality sort of feel but the disadvantage to being made of is that it is heavier which is going to affect performance negatively and potentially battery life negatively and the parts of the helicopter that are most likely to break so where metal would provide the biggest improvement to durability are the blades and those are made of plastic so you know yeah yeah I don't know yeah sorry you're having a little bit of trouble here guys getting these like hardcore twist eyes look at these these they're basically like paper clips getting these out it's making me feel like not an experienced time boxer here crazy bastard was commenting to me I'm getting up near the 1000 video milestone which is a lot of videos on the tube 1000g give you I have way more than 1000 jigaboos actually no I don't although it's Jigga that's a billion yeah I don't have 1000 GB fees alright so there we are this actually looks pretty slick doesn't it so there's your charging jack right there so what you do is it works like all of those little cheap airplanes and helicopters in that you open up this right here you pull out the little charging cable once you've put in the six double-a batteries which inexplicably requires a screwdriver to put in and out like why it's like extra work for no apparent reason I remember when I was a kid like when I was like 10 cuz like most people don't just carry a screwdriver it's like oh I'm at the store I bought this cool thing and I bought some batteries let me just pull screwdriver on my back pocket so anyway you need a screwdriver in order to install the batteries up here we have nothing and here's the infrared wow those are super aligned you can see this is a very high quality construction here there's not an off switch channel selectable so based on whichever channel your chopper is I guess just trial and error just try things and then find out which channel it's using and select that on your controller okay ah there's your up and down control there is your forward back right and left this is actually very advanced for one of these like cheapo helicopters and you know what the build quality for all of my griping about the controller actually looks pretty decent so you can see that it uses rotating blades like hold on yeah obviously rotating blades herp derp but it uses blades that are mounted on little hinges here so what that means is that if you're all like and you hit something like the edge of a table the chances of them breaking are dramatically reduced I actually have a helicopter at home that uses a similar blade style and I've hit it on all kinds of things my catsuit like knocked it out of the air and you had it stuck in the three once I have it no no that was my plane okay here is the back propeller this one's probably pretty likely to break but you know what are you gonna do um so yeah I guess that's pretty much all there is to say about it so crazy Russian hopefully will allow me to oh no way okay hold on all right I don't have batteries in the controller so crazy Russian will hopefully let us do some some footage of this flying once he's I got it all set up and thank you for checking out this unboxing on - tech tips I'm just trying to see how big the battery is if I can see how many milli gigawatts it is milliamps in the amp hours whatever that unit is okay don't forget to subscribe to honest tech tips from unboxings reviews and don't forget to get to the choppa I didn't even notice this check this up it comes with a USB charging cable for the chopper itself so those six double-a batteries are gonna last you like 300 billion years if all they're doing is operating the infrared emitter also it comes with a extra propeller blade for the secondary prop in the back very cool
