Hi Folks,

It's getting increasingly difficult to find time to do any flying recently. I have this beautiful Heli with me, complete with all Electronics i.e. Walkera 2801rx, original motor, Esc, Servo's & Gyro. I have quite a few spares too for this heli: Few main gears, extra blades (main, flybar & tail), shafts for this hell, FlyBar shaft, linkages, screws etc

Crashed it a few months back, but never got time/motivation to fix it up.

Worst case scenario is you can rip out the electronic and build something else.

Would like to give it away (local pickup only) to someone who wants to love this hell.

Fellow hobbyists having the resources to buy good flying models, should not ideally ask me to give it to them, lets keep this for beginners who would love to fly it but have budget constrains.

You will need a compatible Tx (or you can always replace the existing Rx with something compatible with your current system).

 

Thanks Bhanu, Just hoping that it reaches to the right person.

 

I am getting personal messages for this, I would request everyone to kindly post their messages directly here, not through PMs.

Hi sir,it would be great to have this as a first Heli as well as it would be a learning step while repairing it. Never had hands on professional heli like walkera!
I build and fly planes now at this age and would love to enter the heli world.
Thank you

Hi Dheeraj,

Ideally I should not ask, but a true helilover just can't resist you see...I will take it  . Let me know when to come n pick it up.

Thanks

Hi HellyFlyer,

Heli love is what keeps bringing us back here (and to HobbyKing), however, with your already existing battalion of Helis ... Is there a space for one more ?

If yes, you should try here:

Let's wait for more requests before we pick up the most deserving person for this beauty

Hi Dheeraj, You won't believe how i wish to have that heli.I have a Walkera 22 E that needs to be revived. I have been searching for parts for quite some time without success. I believe parts are inter changeable for these models. If you donate it to me I'll be glad to pay for the packaging and shipping price.

Hi,
I wanted to get back into heli since long. After a wrong purchase from a fellow rcian of rcindia and got does with a non flying model which crashed.
Since not been flying any heli.

Later I gave away my complete RC set to a newbie who was super excited but very poor to afford a plane. I quoted 10k but seeing his condition did not charge him a dime. Although went to train him for a couple of weeks

Now I want to get back to heli flying and don't mind some creative repair work.

Somehow I believe this could be a payback

Hi Everyone,

I hope you all will understand that I don't want to get into shipping this Heli, it's a big bird (relatively) and I may not be able to take out time to get into this for some time. So, consider this only if you can arrange local pickup.

Hi dheeraj,
Sure, that is being noted and understood.

Have u been able to finalize the recepient

Hi,

Lets wait for one more week for any more requests i.e. on 6th November the lucky person will be descided.

Hello.

I am from West Bengal n I really wish to purchase your heli n am willing  to pay some bucks for the heli( which might be helpful for your other projects in the hobby) as well as for the shipping( which you might do at you leisure) I am involved in the sale n service of rc helis n cars .....so I will ensure that u know that your heli is well taken care of.......u can even have other working model in exchange of the model n paying a few bucks.......if interested, kindly mail me at or watsapp me at (0)8013074701.......good luck with the hobby

Basically i am into home made fixed pitch helis but i would surely repair it up and do some mods to it . Like micro cam etc. Thanks

Also i could pay shipping(using india post) if under 150 rs . And also i dont need the rx.
Thanks

Hey,
Back when I was in 12th(2011), I wanted to take up this hobby and did a lot of reading up on it online, but I couldn't start off because I realized that this is a very expensive hobby and it's just impossible for me to join this . I gave up on doing anything about it. Occasionally just kept checking in on RCIndia to see all the interesting things on here that people are doing. Just 2 days ago one of my juniors had built a cardboard plane and was attempting a take off but the plane was just out of balance and barely lifted off before crashing back into the ground, I gave him my 2 cents on how he could get it to have stable flight(from what I've learnt off the internet) and hope to see it flying in the next few days. Now that the topic of RC flying was refreshed I was reminded of RCIndia and started browsing, then I stumbled onto your post and I feel like I might just have the chance to take up this amazing hobby if you chose me as the recipient of the awesome opportunity. Unfortunately I live in Bangalore   . If you do end up choosing me there are two ways:
1) I could pay you for the shipping If you could send it to me. (I do not mind waiting, I've waited for 4 years... Whats a few more months in front of that?)
2) I'll have to find some one in my college from UP and just hope they are willing to go out of their way to pick it up even though they dont know me (I personally don't know anyone from UP) when they travel there during the vacations in January.(Long shot). 

I think it is awesome of you to give others this really cool chance at this hobby
hoping you choose me (fingers crossed).

Rajiv,

Do you have a compatible Tx to fly this walkera?

Could we replace the rx with with a 6 ch FM reciever

Dear sir.Pl consider my reauest too

I do not have one sir, as I told you I couldn't get into the hobby for it is an expensive affair. But, I've saved up the money that I got on my birthday and will buy a good inexpensive Tx-Rx combo if I get the heli (if a flysky rx-tx is cheaper than a Walkera Tx I will go for that. If you could suggest a compatible one it would be really helpful )

Hello sir.

Kindly choose the guy soon.......it was meant to be done by 6th i suppose........
I guess we are really waiting.......goodluck to all.

Regards,
Partha.

Hi Rajiv,

You can take it, try to find someone who can pick it up pls.

  Thank you soo much for this! 

Hi,

Seems Rajiv is no longer interested in this give away, so this is available again.

Let me know if someone wants to take this beauty.
