Voice Controlled RC Helicopter

For those who are lazy a unique RC Helicopter has been made that works by speaking to it. If you want it to go higher you say “higher”, lower you say “lower”… you get the idea.
It is built by Nikko and is called the Voice Controlled Voice-Heli and although it is voice controlled it still comes provided with a traditional RC unit allowing you to fly it with a controller rather than voice. [Read more…]

A store in Mansfield Ohio in the US decided to use an RC helicopter to draw the prize to win a free RC truck. I must admit that this is a fairly creative way of accomplishing this.

RC Helicopter flys at great speed
This RC helicopter looks like it is hyperactive. It uses some motor that can be heard being named the super motor on the youtube video above. As can be seen in the video it can fly in all directions at a very quick rate. It seems like the rotor blades are twisting rapidly to change direction so quick as it wouldnt really be possible to stop the blades and spin them in the other direction that quickly.
If you do know how this RC helicopter flys in different directions so quick then post a comment 🙂
Build Your own RC Helicopter

We love RC helicopters here such as the Picoz Micro RC Helicopter, and other variations. If you are a fan of RC helicopters and would like to build your own then check out the site linked below. It details the steps that one guy took to build his own helicopter. No doubt, you need to have some good skills to create one of these indoor beauties and no doubt if you are not skilled then you best dish out 30 quid and buy one already made.

iRemoco RC iOS Controlled Helicopter Launching
May 27, 2011 by Leave a Comment
iRemoco is an RC helicopter that is controlled by an iPad, iPhone or iPod touch. The kit comes with a radio device that connects to the 30 pin dock connector on your iOS device. When connected, you load up an app and can then be used to fly an RC helicopter around with either two on-screen analogue controls, or by a single control and motion to move the helicopter around a room.
The app also can be used to switch between three different frequencies so that up to three helicopters can be used at the same time.

Palmsize Helicopter – RC Living Room Flyer
April 27, 2007 by 3 Comments
Tiny RC helicopters are great fun to play with. The main one you are probably aware of is the Picoz which came out late last year. The palmsize helicopter looks to be slightly smaller then the Picoz and it capable of being fully controlled. The helicopter can be turned left or right as is slowly moves forwards. It can also take off right from the palm of your hand. This is a perfect toy for those like me who like toys in the office.
The helicopter comes in 2 colour which are red or silver and each has a different frequency which allows 2 helicopters to be flown together. Luckily the helicopter is light enough not to actually break when it crashes.
The remote control is infrared, so you need to be in line of sight to use it although you would be stupid attempting to fly a helicopter you couldnt see. Attached on the front is a Multi colour LED for night flying. The helicopter is supposed to be flown indoors but can fly outside if there is ZERO wind. I did try an indoor helicopter once outside and smashed it with in seconds because of ignoring a zero wind rule 🙂 For 15 mintues of charging you can get around 7 minutes of flying time… so maybe you need to purchase 3 to keep one in the air constantly.
