How fast can an RC helicopter fly? Depending on the model you choose, you can expect speeds up to 50 miles per hour or more. Some RC pilots in this hobby have claimed to achieve speeds as fast as 100 miles per hour with modifications. The mini or micro helicopters will be slower but maneuver very well indoors and tight spaces. How far can my helicopter go? The radio will control your helicopter up to one mile away on most models. The most important thing is that you are able see it. The distance of flight is more related to your ability to follow and see the helicopter than it is related to the radio controls itself. What things can I do with my RC helicopter? RC helicopters are versatile in their flying. They can accomplish pretty much anything you can imagine for them. With your RC helicopter you can fly upside down and make it do loops and tricks in the air. You can hover inches off the ground or water and even go fishing with it if you want to.

The last thing you want is an expensive crash with power lines, a building or house or even hurting another individual. Use care in choosing where you fly. Our mini or micro RC helicopters are great for flying indoors or in smaller spaces. Are remote control helicopters dangerous? The blades of a helicopter are often spinning over 2000 RPMs and can pose a danger if not carefully handled. It is important that any pilot use care in choosing a safe location for flying.
