Xheli’s Esky 900 is an assembled “Bare Bones” Helicopter. That means you must choose and buy your own RC equipment. I used at motor that has more that enough power, so I had to turn down my throttle curve to a maximum of 85% for all around good 3D flights, as you will see in the 3D video. Always searching for an electric helicopter with some weight and mass to handle our winds, I have begun exploring the 500 class helicopters. In this video, I give a look at the Esky 900 helicopter. You will see close-up pictures, assembly tips, and the equipment I used in the assembly of this helicopter. The ES 900 is a fantastic flying machine when set up with the pitch and throttle curves I developed on my test stand. I have videos on my test/training stand and how to make the pontoons. Search Stealth Helicopters and NightFlyyer’s Helicopter training/test stand for my videos on those subjects.
The Esky Helicopter feels good and solid for sure and I am quite impressed, since this helicopter only cost $139.
I used the 14.4 battery for the test flight, but will try the bigger 18.5 volt battery for the 3D flights, so stay tuned.
