    OH-58C Kiowa 150 Size Gyro Stabilized Helicopter - RTF from Rotorscale - RSH1026-001


    The RotorScale OH-58C Kiowa brings the legendary U.S. Army scout helicopter to life in a detailed 150 size ready-to-fly scale package. Modeled after the B206 airframe adapted for military service, this Kiowa captures the unmistakable profile and battlefield presence of the real aircraft in a compact, easy-to-fly model.

    Equipped with 6-axis gyro stabilization and an optical flow positioning system, the Kiowa maintains rock-solid hovering performance and steady forward flight even in the hands of less experienced pilots. Takeoffs and landings are simplified with one-touch auto functions, while advanced pilots can explore inverted flight at the push of a button.

    Finished in a factory-applied scale camouflage scheme and complete with LED navigation lights and optional decals, the Kiowa turns heads wherever it flies. Best of all, it arrives completely ready-to-fly with transmitter, battery, charger, and accessories included—just add AA batteries and your mission is ready for launch.
    Authentic OH-58C Kiowa Detail

    Every molded panel line captures the rugged character of the U.S. Army’s iconic scout helicopter. The factory-applied camouflage finish instantly conveys battlefield realism, making this little heli look the part before it ever lifts off. Optional decals let you customize your Kiowa with authentic markings to create a display-worthy scale model that also flies.
    Ready-to-Fly Right Out of the Box

    No building, no setup headaches—everything you need is included. The transmitter, battery, charger, and helicopter come pre-configured, so you can go from box to flight line in minutes. Just charge the LiPo, install four AA batteries in the transmitter, and launch your first mission with total confidence.
    Scale 2-Blade Flybarless Rotor

    The flybarless two-blade rotor head is engineered for both realism and performance. Its streamlined design reduces drag and complexity, while delivering smooth, precise control in every maneuver. From steady hovers to forward flight, the Kiowa’s rotor system makes it look and feel like the real thing in miniature.
    6-Axis Gyro with Optical Flow

    Flight stability is built right in thanks to advanced 6-axis gyro technology. The optical flow sensor actively scans the surface below, locking the helicopter into position with incredible accuracy. Together, these systems help eliminate drift, making hovering effortless for beginners and rock-solid for scale flyers.
    One-Touch Auto Takeoff and Landing

    Takeoffs and landings are no longer stressful! With the press of a button, the Kiowa lifts smoothly into a steady hover or touches down with precision. These auto functions handle the hardest parts of flying for you, so you can focus on learning control and enjoying the flight. Even first-time pilots can look like pros right out of the box.
    Inverted Flight at the Push of a Button

    The Kiowa doesn’t just fly scale, it brings the fun too. Engage one-key inverted mode and watch as the helicopter flips over and keeps flying upside down with full control. It’s a jaw-dropping feature that turns heads at the field and delivers aerobatic excitement without the steep learning curve.
