    MD500 "G-Jive Blue" 250 Size GPS Stabilized Helicopter - RTF from RotorScale - RSH1029-001


    The RotorScale MD500 "G-Jive Blue" packs serious scale fidelity into a compact, GPS-stabilized platform that’s as fun to fly as it is to admire. From the opening cabin doors to the fully detailed interior and 5-blade rotor head, this is far more than your average RTF heli—it’s a standout scale replica that turns heads before it even lifts off.

    Built-in GPS stabilization gives you confidence in every flight, whether you're hovering inches off the deck or running automated flight patterns. Position hold, one-touch return-to-home, and auto landing functions make it approachable for newer pilots, while the robust airframe, bright LED nav lights, and crisp flight response keep experienced pilots engaged.

    With molded scale details, tinted windows, working lights, and a full cockpit layout inside, the MD500 "G-Jive Blue" delivers unmatched realism at this size. And with everything you need included in the box—transmitter, battery, charger, and hard case—you’ll be ready to fly the moment it arrives.
    Iconic Style, Ready to Fly

    The MD500 “G-Jive Blue” stands out with its bold finish and unmistakable profile. Fully assembled and factory-tuned, it's ready for flight right out of the box.
    Fly Right Out of the Box!

    No setup, no hassle - everything is factory-installed and ready to go. Charge the included LiPo and transmitter, install the rotor blades, power on, and you’ll be airborne in minutes with the MD500 at your command.
    Scale That Goes Deeper

    The opening cabin doors reveal a fully molded cockpit features pilot seats, controls, and instrument panel detail. It’s true scale realism rarely found in this class of helicopter.
    Smart Flying Made Easy with GPS

    With GPS-assisted flight, position hold and return-to-home functions are just a switch away. Fly with confidence, even if you're just starting out.
    Scale 5-Blade Flybarless Rotor

    The MD500’s 5-blade flybarless rotor head delivers smooth, stable performance while maintaining authentic scale appearance. Each hover and maneuver feels realistic, giving you precision control wrapped in scale detail.
    Refined Exterior Detail

    Carefully molded exterior details enhance realism from every angle. Every line and surface is designed to elevate the scale presence in the air and on the ground.

    Any chance of a gyro-only version of this one (no GPS?). Looks excellent!
