The size of the RC helicopter matters a lot in determining the type of fuel it uses. Typically, smaller and miniature helicopters are electrically powered, more often by a rechargeable battery because it has a smaller engine. Larger RC helicopter scale are often gas-powered because of its size and weight which requires a lot of lifting force which cannot be supplied by batteries alone.

Radio controllers for better performance and much longer distance range are sold separately and you can also consider using alloy rotor blades for better performance and lifting power aside from the fact that your RC helicopter will have a more authentic look than using plastic blades. |
