Our popular helicopter Buzzard, known from TV, is now available in the revised V2 version, which simplifies the entry into helicopter flying even further with its new features. This beautiful, robust, and RPM-controlled single-rotor helicopter now comes with a new handy 2.4 GHz transmitter set to Mode 2 (throttle on the left by default, but can be switched to Mode 1) and includes many additional functions such as Dual Rate (servo travel limitation) and Auto Start / Auto Landing. The model can be automatically started with a button on the transmitter, ascends to a basic height of approximately 1–1.2 m, and hovers there stably on its own. This allows the pilot to focus on the essential flight characteristics such as forward/backward and right/left. If the model drifts slightly, this can be corrected using the digital trims on the transmitter. Furthermore, the auto start function eliminates the ground effect of a helicopter, as it quickly ascends to its basic height. The ground effect is caused by the rotors, which create turbulence beneath the helicopter and cause it to drift forward and left when close to the ground. Therefore, controlling the model at low altitude can be challenging. Once the pilot has control of the functions on the right side of the transmitter, they can focus on climbing/descending and tail rotation. These functions are located on the left stick. To land, simply press the start/landing button on the front right of the transmitter, and the helicopter will gently descend to the ground and shut off the motor. Even during the landing approach, the helicopter remains fully controllable, allowing the pilot to aim for the landing spot during descent. However, landing can also be performed manually – just push the throttle down and hold it until the model touches down and the motor shuts off. Manual starting and gyro calibration on the transmitter is also possible as an alternative.
