My neighbor gave me a box of heels. Two of which have no canopies. Can anyone tell me what this heli is? I know it's larger than my 270. Possibly a 300? I'll have to measure it.

Yeah It's a E Flite Blade Heli, but it's not a SR. If it is a 300X blade should be 245mm long. If it's a 400/450 the blade is 325mm. Hope this helps. You can also research on You Tube, still a few around. :peaceful:

The main rotor blades are 327mm from pivot to blade tip. It has a G210 gyro, belt driven tail rotor, eflite brushless 420 motor, & Spektrum AR6115e flight controller. Oh, and is a 3S powered ESC, of which I can't see the model #.

I took it to my neighbor today. He used to fly these things many years ago. We dug into it and found it has a couple bad servos and will need to be replaced. I also took mine over there and lo and behold, my battery is 100% dead plus or minus screwed. I tried to use a 4S 2200 but it doesn't have enough oomph to get the heli into the air. I'll need a 6S 910mAh as is used in it or one that will fit with as much capacity as I can cram in the canopy.

Forgot to mention they were given to him in a box. There was also 2 DX6i transmitters in there but he dropped the box and trashed the screen on one of them. He thought both of them were bad but I cleaned the contacts on one and got it to work. However, it did have some moisture buildup inside so I don't know if I trust it.

I have another heli I need ID'd and will post in a new post below...of course, no canopy. I wish Horizon Hobby would put the heli part # on the frame.

If I remember correctly, that would be a 1300-1800 6s pack. At least for Align it is I do believe. Hope you get it in the air soon!

Thanks. Here is the next heli. I do know it's a Blade with a what I think is a coreless motor. It has some damage such as the tail rotor drive shaft pinion is gone, the the head has a crack at the Jesus screw, and the battery probably needs to be replaced. I have no way to charge it anyway. I don't know what connector it is and do t have an adapter. Oh and the little orings that go on the control linkages are rotted.

That second helicopter is a 130x. For the charger, you will need something like below. I only posted this link because it shows what the plug is called. I have never heard of the company that this is sold by.

We did spool it up on the ground and it shook like a (insert leafy plant) in a hurricane. Something is definitely wrong or the gyro didn't like the lower voltage. IDK...

Are you sure it's the gyro not like a bent feather, main or tail shaft maybe not balanced blade? Just asking :search:
