About RC Helicopters
Size matters? Not when it comes to radio-controlled aircraft. Sure, small RC helicopters may not be as powerful as their larger counterparts, but the fun you get from piloting one is as big. Moreover, mini RC helicopters are a much better choice for those only beginning their journey with RC vehicles.
But what are these fascinating machines exactly?
Small RC (Radio-Controlled) helicopters are miniature versions of real helicopters that are operated remotely using radio signals. These helicopters are often designed for indoor or outdoor use and are typically used for recreational purposes, aerial photography, and sometimes even competitive flying.
Whatever your purpose for buying a mini RC helicopter might be, you can rest assured that AT Models will provide you with everything you need to get started on the right foot.

Find Your Perfect Small RC Helicopter
Small RC helicopters are generally morerecommended for beginners, but even as an experienced RC hobbyist, you can still have a lot of fun piloting one. That is, of course, if you find yourself an appropriate machine.
When looking for that perfect small RC helicopter, be sure to consider the following factors:
- Skill Level:
- If you're a beginner, opt for a small, stable, and easy-to-fly model with basic controls.
- If you have some experience, you might consider a slightly more advanced model that allows for gradual skill development.
- Indoor or Outdoor Use:
- For indoor flying, choose a smaller and lightweight model that won't cause damage to your surroundings.
- For outdoor flying, consider a slightly larger model with more power to handle outdoor conditions and light winds.
- Type of Flying:
- If you're interested in simple hovering and basic flight, a fixed-pitch helicopter is a good choice.
- If you want to perform aerobatics and more advanced manoeuvres, consider a collective pitch helicopter.
- Budget:
- Set a budget for your RC helicopter. Keep in mind that more advanced and feature-rich models are often more expensive.
- Assembly and Maintenance:
- Consider whether you prefer a model that comes pre-assembled (RTF) or if you're comfortable with assembling and configuring components (BNF).
- Features and Upgrades:
- Determine what features are important to you, such as camera mounts, gyro stabilisation, First-Person View (FPV) capabilities, and LED lights.
Once you consider the factors above, finding the right RC helicopter shouldn’t cause too much trouble. And if you still can’t decide which one to pick, feel free to contact us for more information about the product. One thing we can assure you, though, is that whichever helicopter you buy, you can expect the highest level of performance and quality.
Where to Fly a Small RC Helicopter
Due to their smaller size and lesser power, small RC helicopters are better suited for indoor flying. Of course, you can still fly them outdoors, but you’d need to be extra careful if you opt for that.
First of all, check local laws and regulations regarding RC flying. For instance, some areas might have restrictions on flying near airports or heavily populated zones.
Another thing to consider is the weather. In general, you will find flying a mini RC helicopter outdoors extremely difficult, even in light wind, let alone more challenging conditions.
So yes, if you want to fly outdoors, it might be better to consider more powerful RC helicopter models. For indoor and casual flying, though, mini RC helicopters are an excellent option for a much more reasonable price.
