Will I Be Able To Fly The Syma S107 Helicopter?

This is probably the most frequently asked question and very much depends on your age, attention span, etc., About 95% or even more have had no problem learning to fly the S107 quickly. Most people I know have it sussed within the first few flights. I would think everyone who has flown the S107 would agree it is probably the most stable, smooth flyer to ever hit the rc helicopter world!

Why is the Syma S107 a good beginner RC Helicopter?

Amazing Stability and Precision Flying!

The Syma S107 has a revolutionnary, super stable gyro, and with smooth accurate controls, it is a easy and relaxing flyer for almost anyone that has flown it. The gyro makes this helicopter excel when hovering and precision landing! It is also suprisingly resilient to crashes unlike many RC Helicopters, and will withstand most knocks and crashes, which is essential for any beginner! The body itself is constructed from solid metal and is of extremely solid build quality.

Great copter - so easy my 9-year old was flying it in no time. Unfortunately, before we had it mastered I broke both tail rotors. Replaced them easily enough (bought bulk from an outfit in China), but when I started flying again, I think the directional controls reversed! I remember pushing it forward to go forward - now I have to pull back. Also, it rockets up when I go forward and drops like a stone when I go backward. I can feather the throttle to compensate, but I also wonder if this is standard. My favorite exercise is picking out a specific spot, circling it after takeoff, then landing on it. So far I've even been able to land on the second level of a 3-level cart! Any suggestions for fixing the control directions?

You just need to take the tail rotor that you replaced and reverse it! its on backwards! Let me know if you still have problems!
