So, just a week back, my brother bought this HuanQi 3ch RC heli with a built in gyroscope(this also confirms what VC bhaiya once said, that 3.5 ch is a marketing gimmick). He bought the heli from China(he often goes there for business purpose) for a mere :Rs:1400 for my nephew Vedant but since I am the only one into Aeromodelling in my family i got to test fly it.
I was completely taken aback by the price, it is so cheap. I remember buying a smaller one for Rs2500. It is really fun to fly it in leisure time and has a good flight time. The only minor issue is that it is a bit tail heavy.
So, i made this video. The intro is very childish :giggle:, done purposely to please my nephew. Serious flyers should watch from 1.30.
I also plan to buy a 2.4ghz 4ch heli for my use during the next trip of my brother to China.
For best viewing, watch in HD.

The outdoor flying was done at the roof of an old Kolkata house, the resident of which was our neighbour. However, we have long shifted from there. But with this heli i got an opportunity to fly at my uncle's(i call my neighbour "uncle" because i had been born there and have since been in contact with him) house. It brought back some of the old memories of our old house.
Indoor flying was done at my new home.
Please post your suggestions.
Good job! Posted a comment on youtube.
Thank You bhaiya.
Must be reminding you of your days in the city.
Hi
Good Heli & stable flying -Does it have a additional batteries for replacement & is the motor -brushless ?
regards

Thanks. No, they did not give any additional batteries for replacement and the motor is brushed. But the flight time is very good. Above 15 mins for sure. After all what more can be expected for that price.
Seriously its good, Yesterday i baught a Mini 3Ch RC helocopter with build in Gyroscope from Big Bazar and it costed me around 1350/- after discount. Its fly's pretty well but it as a 85mAH lipo and last for just 5 minutes. (Modelart)
Yes it is good. Especially, getting such a big one for such a cheap price.
