			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well finaly this bird is found it&#8217;s nest. It&#8217;s 10% discount at a mall next to my office, good deal!</p>
<p>It&#8217;s complete name is: Esky Honey Bee King II. Made in China of course <img src='http://pampie.chosenlight.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>This electric heli is <u>not a toy.</u> Serious injury might happened if care is not the priority. There are some cautions regarding the safety:</p>
<ol>
<li>
<div>Always taking care of power-on &amp; power-off procedure. To power-on: turn on the transmitter, then turn on the heli. To power-off: turn off the heli first, then the transmitter.</div>
</li>
<li>
<div>Keep the bird out of reach of the children</div>
</li>
<li>
<div>Take care of the surroudings, never fly near obstacles.</div>
</li>
<li>
<div>Discipline, one at a time, never rush (i.e. wants to do 3D asap)</div>
</li>
<li>
<div>Take <a href="http://www.dream-models.com/eco/flying-index.html">RADD&#8217;s school of rotary flight</a> first.</div>
</li>
</ol>
<p>Here are the look of this mini heli:</p>
<p>The casing:</p>

<p>This heli is the cheapest 6 Channel Model Heli you can find in the market. Here is the list of it&#8217;s standard package:</p>
<p><img src="http://pampie.chosenlight.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/005el.jpg" alt="005EL" align="top" height="152" width="463" /></p>
<p><strong><u>In brief:</u></strong></p>
<ol>
<li><strong>The heli</strong> is having two motors. One for the main shaft and the other is for the tail shaft. This configuration is much simpler it terms of mechanical, but the fact that the motors is only communicating by the mercy of the speed controller it will decrease the stability of such configuration.</li>
<li><strong>EK2-0406</strong> is the entry level 6CH transmitter from Esky. It does 6 channel control but it lacks throttle &amp; pitch curve control usually found on 6 channel transmitter. It is coupled with EK2-0702A receiver (or controller) which will react to the command sent through the transmitter.</li>
<li><strong>EK-0702A</strong> is a &#8220;4 in 1&#8243; controller. It contains Mixer, Receiver, Gyro, ESC alltogether. The advantages of this system is much cheaper than separate device for each function and much simpler, but the drawbacks it is hard to change the main motor to brushless type.</li>
<li><strong>EK2-0500</strong> is the servo which will control the CCPM system found in this heli.</li>
<li><strong>EK1-0180</strong> is the main battery for the heli, but seems like the Indonesian version will equipped with Li-po instead</li>
<li><strong>Charger, adapter</strong> is just the usual thing found on the battery equipped device.</li>
</ol>
<p><strong><u>Features</u></strong></p>
<ol>
<li>You can begin to fly after fixing the battery and unwrapping the packing</li>
<li>3D aerial acrobatics is available</li>
<li>Flight is stable, reaction is sensitive and rapid, and controllability is good</li>
<li>Designed with beginner and 3D fun flyers in mind</li>
<li>Simple structure ensures convenient adjustment and maintenance</li>
</ol>
<p><strong><u>Summary</u></strong></p>
<ol>
<li>It does what a 6 channel heli should do (collective-pitch) and the manufacturer says it will do it just fine. But the lack of throttle &amp; pitch curve control will limit it capabilities.</li>
<li>From price-to-performance ratio this heli should be perfect for the intermediate player. But for the serious one, it should be considered that the transmitter system limit the customization and upgrade path for the future.</li>
</ol>

<p><strong><u>In Brief</u></strong></p>
<ol>
<li><strong>The heli</strong> is using belt to drive the back rotor, means the stability is more agile.</li>
<li><strong>EK20406A</strong> transmitter is the one also found on the esky&#8217;s masterpiece (Belt CP). It has the pitch &amp; throttle curve control thus it is possible to configure the flying characteristic of the heli (stable, aerobatic, wind). It is coupled with the receiver, ESC, servo and the gyro.</li>
<li><strong>EK2-0600A</strong> ESC, will control the power of the motor.</li>
<li><strong>EK2-0500</strong> 8g servo will control the movement of the heli itself.</li>
<li><strong>EK1-0180</strong> is the Li-Po battery.</li>
<li><strong>Charger and adapter</strong> is the usual stuff</li>
<li><strong>EK2-0420A</strong> 6CH receiver will receive command from the transmitter and will react accordingly.</li>
<li><strong>EK2-0704</strong> is the gyro which will coordinates the movement stability of the heli by coordinating the speed of the motors</li>
</ol>
<p><strong><u>Features</u></strong></p>
<p><img src="http://pampie.chosenlight.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/016fly.jpg" alt="016fly" align="texttop" height="147" width="205" /></p>
<ol>
<li>Adopted CCPM (Collective cyclic pitch mixing) system, make rolling, dive, inverted flying and 3D aerobatic acts are displayed perfectly, which will bring you endless pleasant surprise.</li>
<li>Integrated main body structure,light &amp; novel design, and auto-Rotation System with high-precision one-way shaft bearing can protect safe landing effectively</li>
<li>Tail rotor with Belt driven construction, which can ensure easy adjustment,stable flight and low noise.</li>
<li>Adopt 370 super motor with high performance,the power is driving.</li>
<li>Equipped 6 channel transmitter, which can adjust parameters precisely, so that the precision and stabilization of flight can be well displayed.</li>
</ol>
<p><strong><u>Summary</u></strong></p>
<ol>
<li>It&#8217;s the medium type of heli which will do all the movement possible for a 6 channels heli should. The difference with the Belt CP is the material used and also the magnetic motor which is inferior to the brushless one.</li>
<li>The price is slightly higher than the HB CP2, but it cheaper than the Belt CP. If there are more budget it should be considered to have the Belt CP instead.</li>
</ol>

<p>This is the professional heli one should have as a serious hard-core-type of hobbiest [electric version]. It is much cheaper than the engine type one with the same capabilities (minus the distinct sound). Here is the list of the standard package (Ready To Fly [RTF] version):</p>
<p><img src="http://pampie.chosenlight.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/013el.jpg" alt="013EL" align="texttop" height="154" width="470" /></p>
<p><strong><u>In Brief</u></strong></p>
<ol>
<li><strong>The heli</strong> compared with the previous two, this heli employed one motor configuration. The tail rotor is driven by a belt [thus the name came from] and the advantage is that the movement of the tail rotor will always in sync with the main motor.</li>
<li><strong>EK20406A</strong> transmitter is the one also found on the esky&#8217;s masterpiece (Belt CP). It has the pitch &amp; throttle curve control thus it is possible to configure the flying characteristic of the heli (stable, aerobatic, wind). It is coupled with the receiver, ESC, servo and the gyro.</li>
<li><strong>EK1-0350A</strong> ESC, will control the power of the brushless motor. Unlike the King II, this ESC special design for brushless motor type.</li>
<li><strong>EK2-0500</strong> 8g servo will control the movement of the heli itself.</li>
<li><strong>EK1-0186</strong> is the battery [should be LiPo instead]</li>
<li><strong>Charger and adapter</strong> is the usual stuff</li>
<li><strong>EK2-0420A</strong> 6CH receiver will receive command from the transmitter and will react accordingly.</li>
<li><strong>EK2-0704</strong> is the gyro which will coordinates the movement stability of the heli by coordinating the speed of the motors</li>
<li><strong>EK5-0006</strong> Brushless motor. This is the ultimate motor for the electric type heli. It has more power and reliability since it doesn&#8217;t use &#8216;brush&#8217; inside the motor.</li>
</ol>
<p><strong><u>Features</u></strong></p>
<p><img src="http://pampie.chosenlight.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/line-r2-c2.jpg" alt="line r2 c2" align="texttop" height="160" width="210" /></p>
<ol>
<li>CCPM System</li>
<li>Auto-rotation Stystem</li>
<li>Tail rotor Belt Drive System</li>
<li>High Inertial Main Blade</li>
<li>High Rigidity Iron Main Shaft</li>
<li>Shock Proof Iron Landing Skids</li>
<li>Full Ball Bearing &amp; Metal Ball End</li>
<li>High rigidity alloy tail boom</li>
<li>High Strength Carbon Fibre Tail Stand</li>
</ol>
<p><strong><u>Summary</u></strong></p>
<ol>
<li>Stable and reliable.</li>
<li>This is the ultimate non-engine type of heli. It features the complete set of aeromodelling heli should be minus the cost.</li>
</ol>
<p><strong><u>Other Type</u></strong></p>

<p>There are another type of this heli which using carbon fibre instead of metal. This heli is very rigid and powerful since this material is fond of it&#8217;s strengt, durability and lightweight:</p>
