EP Micro Helicopter Minium AD

CALIBER 120 Type R Readyset


No.20102RS   Readyset

□Available : 28 Feb 2009

Scale helicopter with pre-installed 4-channel R/C system and gyro, fits on the palm of your hand!
Enjoy improved stability in hovering and backwards flying capability. Chose from two color decal sets included!

The dream of real helicopter control that was realized with the micro-sized “Caliber 120” now features a realistic scale body with the new “Caliber 120 Type R” to match its advanced cyclic control system, similar to those used in much larger helicopters. Until now, small helicopters have only used tail-rotor and motor control to govern lateral and vertical movement, but this sophisticated machine uses 4-channel control and a gyro to add hovering capability as well as forward and backward flight control. Optimal use of carefully tested materials result in a robust structure weighing only 35g that realizes both easy maneuverability and keeps damage to a minimum in the event of a crash. This structure combines with durable main rotors that can take hard contact so you can relax while enjoying all aspects of real helicopter control. As with the MINIUM airplane, this model is also fully pre-assembled and packaged as a Readyset so simply charge the included Li-Po battery in the transmitter and prepare for takeoff! Use your dining table as a launch pad and take a scenic flight around your living room. Try hovering over the table and touch down on the palm of your hand! Discover the fascination of real helicopter flight with full control at your fingertips.

Packed with the advanced technology developed with the MINIUM airplane. The lightweight design delivers easy flight control and is resistant to hard contact so you can relax and enjoy the flight.

 

Incorporates a 4-channel cyclic control system in a micro-sized helicopter to deliver the hovering, forward and backward, lateral and vertical maneuverability similar to large helicopters.

 

Carbon tail boom etc. contributes to the lightweight structure. Tail rotor features a coreless motor for sharp yaw control.

Newly developed multifunction transmitter features a large LCD to display data for voltage, digital trim offset values and control mode. Provides clear visibility of control settings and functions.

 

Training safety bar is included so you can practice with confidence to improve stability. Prevents inversion during landing or takeoff.

 

Automatically scans for open frequencies across a 75-wave spectrum on the international standard 2.4GHz band for ultra-safe control. Up to 24 aircraft can be flown at the same time.

All control inputs are equipped with 19-step digital trims for precise adjustment. LCD screen provides clear visibility and easy management of control settings.

 

Motor changed from 10mm to 12mm for increased power and durability as well as realizing a lower center of gravity and greater stability.

 

  • Functions automatically once transmitter is registered to the receiver. (Comes pre-registered at time of shipment).
  • New design transmitter features built-in antenna that delivers more effective signal emission.
  • Transmitter can be paired and used with your second or third aircraft.
  • Advanced design includes two special servos, receiver, motor control amp and gyro in an ultra lightweight structure.
  • Fitted with pre-painted lightweight scale body. Apply your choice of the red or blue stickers included.
  • Training skids allow one-touch installation of the training safety bar.
  • Cored motor delivers plenty of torque to the main rotor while a coreless motor produces optimal response from the tail.
  • Transmitter features built-in battery charger that can charge a spare battery while being used for flight control.
  • Selected flight style mode (Mode I or Mode II) is displayed on the LCD.
  • Switch Expert Mode ON/OFF with a push of the elevator stick that uses a dual rate function to increase or decrease aileron and rudder angle.
  • Transmitter can be used with both MINIUM AD series airplanes or helicopters. **Cannot be used with 3-channel MINIUM airplanes.
  • Swash plate mechanism enables control of movement around the roll and pitch axis, just like large size helicopters. Inclusion of gyro also provides sure control of the tail.
  • Lightweight structure provides optimal strength and flexibility to realize an easy-to-fly, robust and user-friendly machine.
