very stable in windy conditions in gps mode. crashed mine when I didn't note that the mode switch had been nocked off gps. Check all before flying every time easy to miss.. No spare belts for a long time. the widow set does not match the front window and the front canopy has been out of. stock for a long time also.

I can't believe how easy it was to get up and running. I'm not a experienced pilot, but I'll tell you this my nerves was high. But after my first flight, I was ready for more. This helicopter is so awesome I would recommend this to everyone. It may cost a pretty penny, but it's so worth it . My wife even joined me , just to watch it in action lol . She asked babe how do you like it all I could do smile like it was Christmas. Fast shipping and very professional company to order from .

First off I want to say Thank You to Motion RC.I ordered my RotorScale (Roban) Super Scale 470 size GPS Stabilized Bell 206 RTF Helicopter on a Friday afternoon at 3pm and it was delivered to my house the very next day at noon! (and I didn't pay any extra $$ for a faster delivery) Simply outstanding Shipping speed. I "attempted" learning to fly a Gas Engine RC Helicopter back in the late 1990's and it was a complete nightmare. From the moment it lifted off the ground it was a crash waiting to happen, so I sold it and never attempted trying one again. Fast forward 25+ years and these new Technology GPS stabilized RC Helicopters are simply AMAZING! From the moment the rotor blade spools up to take off, for me I cannot stop smiling now. These 470 Size Helicopters are so simple to control and look Awesome in flight. I also fly a DJI Air 3 Drone and when it comes to comparing the two, the controls are the same as are their flight characteristics and these new Tech GPS Helicopters even have a "Return to Home" feature like my drone has! There is NOT a single negative thing I can say about this scale Bell 206. The build quality is perfect, the paint is flawless, and honestly, I enjoy looking at it as much as I enjoy flying it! The pre-installed lighting package that you can adjust how they blink is yet another positive. My two youngest Grandsons both enjoy it very much when "PaPaw Mike" brings this Helicopter over to their house so they can watch it fly. (these young ones are the future of our Radio Controlled Hobby), and it's so great to be able to share my love of this hobby with them. If you have ever or you are currently considered getting a Radio Controlled Helicopter, then look no further. Motion RC has 4 different 470 size models to choose from. I already have my eye on the MD500 Sheriff Helicopter to add along side of my Bell 206. If you are interested watching my VIDEO of me UNBOXING, the MAIDEN FLIGHT and an example of using the RETURN TO HOME feature of my RotorScale (Roban) Super Scale 470 size GPS Stabilized Bell 206 RTF Helicopter, then you can watch it at this link: https://youtu.be/kZVlwEhGhFk

Waited a long time for a scale helicopter that flies right out of the box. Been flying helicopters for a long time and never could fly to well. This helicopter makes flying fun again! Having the GPS option makes learning a breeze and makes me more confident to fly in manual. A great helicopter to learn on! Gave up on waiting on the Huey to get back in stock so I just got the new 200 size with gyro stabilization. Not disappointed, but the 470 size and flight control is a lot better. Been getting about eight minutes per battery flight time. Overall, great helicopter.

I have been waiting for a ready to fly scale helicopter for a long time. The kits are a little to complicated for me. I've flown collective pitch but was always worried about crashing. I don't do 3d, or any aggressive flying. This helicopter looks and flies great. Easy to fly and nothing but fun! The only issue I have is the flight time is eight to nine minutes at best. I did buy two additional batteries to extend the fun.

I just received my new Bell 206 Super Scale helicopter today. Shipping was quick and everything was packaged very well. I was amazed at the detail of this helicopter. I hope to have its maiden flight in a couple of days as rain put things on hold today. I consider this helicopter well worth the money for what you get. Great job Motion RC.
