Introducing the RotorScale SH-60 Sea Hawk 220 Size GPS Stabilized Helicopter, an outstanding choice for radio-controlled helicopter enthusiasts looking for an exceptional flying experience. This model's advanced flight stabilization system includes GPS, a pressure sensor, and an optical sensor, enabling precise position hold even in windy conditions. With convenient one-button return home and auto-landing features, flying has never been easier. The intelligent battery, equipped with four status LEDs, provides real-time charge level updates. The SH-60 boasts a high level of scale detail, featuring LED lights and sliding side doors for added realism. Shock-absorbing landing gear ensures smooth landings and enhances the model's scale detail, while the direct drive main motor offers efficiency and reduced noise.

Safety is paramount with features such as one-key return, low-power intelligent return, loss of signal return, one-key landing, "heart-shaped" flight, and circular flight. The helicopter is equipped with a new 8-channel high-precision remote control that uses a 2.4GHz two-way communication protocol and includes an LCD display. The transmitter allows for digital parameter adjustments and optimized joystick outputs for precise control. The helicopter is designed for high efficiency, power savings, and extended flight times. Its nylon composite material blades offer durability, strength, and impact resistance.

I’m seriously looking at getting one of these. It looks like it will satisfy all my needs. Now who would you recommend to purchase from?

[Jim Jacobs]

I just ordered today, can’t wait for it to arrive.

[handyman220]

I also ordered one, should be here 7/30. I hope it isn't a bad decision, I have heard both good and bad reviews.

[Jim Jacobs]

Let’s hope good. After receiving the XK K124 last week which is total garbage, I don’t need eachine to be junk. My Blade Nano S3 is rock solid and flies awesome. More should be made like it.

If you are interested in micro scale helis, Goosky just announced a 200 size UH-1Y Venom today. Based off of the performance of their S2, it should be a nice flying reliable platform.

Jim I did not pay for fast shipping. I used the free shipping as always. Anytime I order from motion it is usually to me in 3-4 days.

[Sco58]

I’m just getting started in RC helicopters, just ordered this one.

Maidened this today. And my very first heli although familiar with guys flying them at my club. Was epic and rock solid in gps. A lovely kit. I had 2 batteries and both flights were easily 6 minutes. However the actual battery was reading 50% still with its green bars. Tried a third flight and it immediately went into self landing which was scary but good. Shame you can’t access the radio to adjust LVC and the annoying beeps etc
