    Default Flybarless rtf @£179.99?

    Has anybody flown the Neon Blaze Flybarless. £179.99 rtf. At that price it can't really fly, can it?

    wow, that's rather interesting..

    I would just get one just for the lulz!

    thats actually a re-badged Walkera HM V400D02, they fly ok quite twichy when i flew them (mine were the very old extreme twichy flybar ones) these flybarless are just about ok as good as blade sr and a tail rotor for motor so very twichy in the right hands they ok but dont dream big moves anything over flips and the tail is all over the place

    ask me dont waste your money on it

    We got the Walkera V400D02 which the Century Neon Blaze SE is a Clone Version. This is a nice beginner's Collective Pitched Helicopter (CP). It uses a tail motor for the rudder control making repair for this helicopter really easy. We added some mods to this helicopter which are very easy to do. A Main brushless motor, Metal Gear (MG) Servos, Stealth Carbon Fibre CF) Blades, Super Skids, and ON/OFF Power Switch. Below is a short video.




    As you can see in the video, we didn't get any twitching at all.


    Cheers !

    i thought the century model was fixed pitch? the tail motor is mounted behind the main motor too, it looks like it runs the tail rotor via shaft on the one i saw.

    That's the Evo180SE like I had, it is a CP - not having had one can't remark on it!

    No thanks, had century rubbish when i first started. better byeing decent gear in the first, then your only fighting your ability rather than the model aswell.

    The Walkera V400D02 is a beginner's FLYBARLESS 6-Channel Collective Pitched (CP) R/C electric helicopter. As with most beginner's helicopters, you want it to be inexpensive and simple to repair. It is not the Century 180SE. The Century Neon Blaze SE is the clone version of the Walkera V400D02. Below is a test flight of the Walkera V400D02 with the Main Brushless Mod, Stealth Carbon Fiber Blades (315mm), Metal Gear (MG) Servos, Super Skids 400, Extended Lipo Battery, and more. It flies great for any beginner and when you get better at flying, you can upgrade to the mods in the video below.




    Cheers !
