If you are thinking of what particular remote control helicopter to buy, then this article should help.

Here are the different types of remote control helicopter:

Gas remote control helicopter – If you are thinking of flying a helicopter that somehow close to flying a real helicopter, then the gas remote control helicopter is for you. Made with an engine and powered by gas, this helicopter is the most advanced remote control helicopter to buy. Gas remote control helicopter does not come cheap with engine and more complicated moving parts. Gas remote control helicopter is for advanced rc pilot.

Electric remote control helicopter – Early electric remote control helicopters released are expensive but later models are more affordable. This makes electric remote control helicopters more popular than any type of remote control helicopters in the market. It is easy to fly. It creates no noise and
smell not like the gas remote control helicopter. It is powered by a rechargeable battery. The electric remote control helicopter is suitable for beginners.

Mini remote control helicopter – Also powered by battery, this type of remote control helicopter is similar to the electric rc helicopter. In fact, it is hard to define if the electric remote control helicopter falls on the category of a mini. But to be safe about it, you can say that it is mini if you can fly it on your living room without imposing danger on your furniture.

Split-S. This is a half loop and a half roll. Either the loop or the roll can come first, followed by the other. If you roll to inverted first, pull out right side up with a half loop. Do a half loop to inverted, then roll to right side up to gain altitude.

Tic-toc. When you make the helicopter look like the boom is fastened to a metronome, youre doing a tic-toc. Alternate positive collective and backward elevator with negative collective and forward elevator in order to maintain altitude.

Death spiral. This is when you go from a high hover to a 90-degree bank with zero collective and zero speed, then give full forward or back elevator only for as long as you can. Correct any time by banking the opposite like you did to begin the bank. Dont wait too long for the tail may not keep up and the helicopter will dive nose down.

Moon walk. This is when you go through the motions of a loop, but it looks stretched out so its not really a loop any more. Enter as a regular loop. When youre vertical from the 1/4 of the loop, add plenty of negative so it maintains its forward momentum. Keep the elevator steady the entire time. Youll end up flying backwards inverted for a couple of seconds, but keep your hold on the elevator. As the helicopter points straight down, start adding lots of positive collective and level out.

RC helicopters have truly carved out a niche in the imaginations and hobby pursuits of many more people than in the past, largely due to the advent of inexpensive and technologically advanced electric RC helicopters, the hobby is reaching new heights!

Back in the day, which wasn't very many days ago, the choice was limited to gas powered birds, and if you either didn't have the money, skill, or stomach to withstand all the gas and oil smoke and exhaust, you just went in search of something else to do. The idea of flying mini-versions of real helicopters has always captured the imagination of many, but only those with deeper pockets and stronger stomachs could apply. Now, that is no longer the case!

Now, thanks to the tremendous advances in batteries, motors and electronic components over the last few years, electric RC helicopters have carved out a niche all their own, and have claimed a large share of the market. Now you have choices. Who, for example, would have even considered flying their gas powered RC helicopter in the house? Now it's not only possible, but common!

Some of the major advantages of electric RC helicopters include no messy maintenance, smaller, more controllable flights, shorter learning curves, less expensive (generally), no noise or any other kind of pollution, and no stalling in mid air, as many gas birds can and will do.
