what a beautiful view you have in the backyard!!
Thanks JG! We LOVE it here, and want to make it even cooler, with a pond, if we can get the contractors to take us seriously...working hard to get this project done, then we'll have a better flying spot BEHIND the house too, so when it's just before golden hour (sunset) we'll be able to fly with the sun BEHIND us for better lighting ;) OH YEAH!!!!!!!
Brilliant camera work
❤ this little heli so scale & a blast to fly 💯
C187は素晴らしい安定性ですね。 楽しいです！
That unbox/build/radio setup had me cracking up, great vid
Glad you enjoyed it!!! Thanks
Cool little heli 👍
Just ordered one on the strength of your review, Thank you.
Fantastic! Thanks Mako Shark!!!
I think it's a great little toy that I see would be hard to destroy. That being said, I think it's a great gift for a child to play around with, and not worry about being broken on it's first flight.
Thanks for sharing. 👍👍👍
Ah think again. This don't do well slamming hard into the ground. And since it's about $100 maybe a bit over depending on where you buy it. I wouldn't chance it as a first helicopter. Better to stick with a 3-3.5 channel coaxial helicopter like something from Syma for the kids. They can take a far better beating and the kids will learn on it A LOT easier.
Very beautiful !! 😀
Nice scale and flytime.
When I started flying helis in 2012 the OG heli pilots gave me flack because my heli was flybarless with a gyro instead of flybar. Having flown both flybarless/flybar I see why they said that and now I watch these helis take off and fly on their own more akin to quads I totally get them now. The pain you have to go through flying, crashing, repairing, dreaming about, then fly again and repeat really helps you concentrate on what's wrong so you can fly better. I remember just taking off seemed impossible. You then learn that as soon as you start spooling up you are flying but on the ground. Learning how to adjust the ground effects develops super subtle stick control. This helps enormously for landings. Crash landings are costly in time and money for helis. For FPV quads you hover a foot or three above ground and kill motors. No harm done. Helis need to be true. Plus it's really fun to land just like a plane is fun; sometimes more fun than flying. This heli looks great for indoors and calm evenings outside. Thanks for flying and reviewing helis Brian. I love all flying robots that are peaceful. . .
Captain Crunch.
Ahoy Mate, You make sure You, My Friend, have a great weekend!
I'm glad it has gyroscope calibration to fix the drifting issue. I can't wait to play with this thing :)
You have very very beautiful place. I love to this place and this amazing heli.😍
Thank you very much! We love it here, and love the opportunity to share it when we can!
Just got mine last night can't wait to try it Sunday afternoon and I'm also getting the red EC-135 as well
Sweet! Good luck!
would you happen to know what the difference is between the standard controller over the upgraded controller that's offered? It's about an $8 difference in price.
I would recommend BO105 model (C186) from the same company over this one for beginners.
the battery is easier to install and remove, and the outer shell is made of tougher material, that can take some beating.
mechanically, they are pretty much the same helicopters. I believe the name of the manufacture is YuXiang, but they use several brand names including
"RC ERA" "FliteZone" "G-Force" "Modstar" "Eachine" etc.
Great review and good to see this one. I have three similar Helis - E120x2 and orange C186 (no optical flow) and although they help themselves to fly quite a lot you do still have to fly them yourself as they are not as refined as a drone. This gives you the chance to get on with the business of flying rather than fighting the aircraft. Now I know purists will still prefer to learn the hard way and they will build skills that way and be able to eventually do stunts, 3D etc, and that is fine if that is your direction. But for me, just wanting to fly a heli simply and cheaply these are the perfect solution and without them I would never have bothered with helis. I really don't need to do anything more myself in the world of helis. So it is horses for courses, and that is what is great about the hobby giving so much choice now. If it's not for you fine, and if it is for you have fun. That's what all hobbies are ultimately about.
Exactly - well said! I just had a guy (James) complaining about the imperfection of this model due to drift. I reminded him it's not going to be perfect, especially at this price, but it's plenty fun for most guys that want a piece of eye candy for the office desk (or similar) and just want to get to flying! No trouble setting the thing up, and looks sweet when you're NOT playing with it ;)
Thanks again, and glad you're here with us!
@@BrianPhillipsRC I do follow your channel from the UK Brian and have found you one of the most useful reviewers on here. I like the way you pitch it bearing in mind newbies and experienced flyers, and say the pros and cons whilst not putting the models down. That is so important. Also you show crashes and repairs and that lets people know you're human too. You speak freely and get lots of information out there, whilst flying. Camera crew does a great job too. And you both enjoy it, which shows, and that is the main thing. Gets people into the hobby. Long may you continue.
How do you reckon it compares to the C186?
@@Galdring The E120 has optical flow whereas the C186 version does not. This make a small difference as the E120 can hold position a little bit better. Videos on my channel if you want to see them flying. I prefer the E120.
I have found that 5 pence or something similar weight, taped to the nose is a bit of a help with the Centre of Gravity, I use double sided tape to seal the battery bay, then add coin to help with centre of gravity, them a strip of tape. Still prefer the Eachine E-129, can buy with 3 cells.
That's funny because I worked on EC-135 when I was in the USAF...but they weren't helicopters
lol Thanks for your service 🙏
best review
Thanks!
can not beat the price that hele goes at my speed I love it. as I age I am starting to lean to the right.
Hi from what I understand the optical flow system waits a second or so before it kicks in after you have made a move yourself, so that is why it may drift a little. Also the optical flow does not operate during yaw hence why it drifts then. Whenever you move the controls the optical flow system is overridden. That's my understanding of the model. It's not as sophisticated as a GPS system on a more expensive drone but then for the money what it does is cool.
This looks like the same basic system as the Eachine E120 that I have. Mine always defaults to mode 1 (right hand throttle) but if you need to swap, just hold the auto take off & land button down whilst powering on the transmitter. You will have to do this EVERY time you power on, but you’ll get used to it! You’ll know which mode you’re in when you try to arm the system with the throttle up down process😊
I think the E120 flies quit a bit better, but same controls, as you mentioned. I wonder if the simulated tail fan, and the otherwise large decoration back there makes the tail work a lot less efficiently??? But even with that, it's a great choice, for what it is. Love the looks, and flight performance is acceptable - most will really enjoy it ;)
Thanks Mr GOAT
@@BrianPhillipsRC Excellent, very thorough reviews as always Brian. I love the E120, they do fly very well, especially indoors or dead calm outdoors. And they look superb. Usually needs some trim for a better hover, and I have to re trim each time! That’s a bit annoying, but fine for the price!
Merci pour cette vidéo 👍
You are welcome!
That flying in the woods is cool
The tilt when hovering is normal for helicopters. full sized helicopters do it too. Its how they compensate for translating tendency.
Thanks!
Do you mean the lean towards the tail rotor? Thats correct. Because the tail rotor provides the reaction to the torque from the main rotor it also provides a net side thrust so the helicopter has to lean towards the tail rotor thrust line to prevent drift. Its normal and yes full size do it noticably.
MD 500 Hughes coming soon!
I have this model; just a heads up, if anyone buys this heli, be mindful that the heli can drop out of the sky if you are holding down on the throttle stick without any other stick input. I believe the heli senses that it has landed and shuts off the motors while still airborne.
That's a cool new feature!!! ;)
Ah, the return-to-ground feature!
@@jriley-tv1on Ha, yeah, it’s looks like most of these models with altitude hold, that uses the ‘throttle down’ stick will drop the bird if no other input is given. Just got the F03 and it’s the same.
autorotation didnt do its job
I was really surprised on how big it was not over big and not to small I bought 1 I thank its pretty cool myself
yep, agreed!
Jeesh, Brian! Sneaking in another weed whacker video ( 3:33 ) ?!?
Cool little heli! Thanks!
Great job, Camera Crew! I'm sure BP can patch up all of the holes in the drywall from this thing, and make it look like new... almost. Not really 😂
👍
Mine nods a lot and quite often wants to fly backwards. If I let go of everything it sort of hovers and then I can go forward but it nods a lot. Then eventually I end up at full stick and its not going foward anymore. It's very hard to tell if that is about as good as it gets. The one in this video seems to behave pretty much the same.
I found out that you can fly this helicopter with the C189 MD500 Transmitter and you can fly the C186 BO 105 & C187 EC135 only thing different is if you wanna land it you press the take off button so you use the takeoff to takeoff & land
Your garage doors are sweet!
Thanks! We love them!
That’s exactly what happened to my other EC machine. It wondered sofar with yaw I couldn’t get it back and crashed into a tree.
@7:30 if you listen closely what is that weird "grunting sound" in the background. I had to reply this part of the video a few times and found it kind of odd. But love the copter im gonna get on myself.
I'm not sure what that noise is, but I think it's something about my mic and the resonance of the heli. Sorry I can't tell for sure, though.
Hi, you mentioned some other helis that can switch off the auto leveling, which ones are those?
Hi and thanks a lot for this video.
Does anyone know what protocol is used for this heli, i wanna gain more control biding it with my Zorro.
Thanks for your help.
I believe it is one of the OpenTX protocols, but don't know what it is, sorry!
how does this compare to the e120 and have you seen one better than those 2 since making this video?
I wonder how low is the battery voltage when the light starts flashing and how low it is when flashes faster
Hard to tell. I know it's less than full ;) These heli's leave a lot to be desired in the tech support area. I just fly them and enjoy them. If it were a $1500 kit heli, I'd want to know everything too, but these
@@BrianPhillipsRC Oh yeah 👍🏼, is awesome that now we can buy a small scale Helo RTF , so cheap! I wonder if one day, a $$1000 kit will cost so cheap like this, I bet they'll
Holy shit I finally hit it first.....
Is there any other place besides Banggood the ERA EC135 C187 parts are available . . If I order now delivery is way down in November . that is horrible.
When I think of the little radio-controlled helicopters released only 10 years ago, which were really crap to fly, and when I see this little plastic thing that flies almost by itself....(I think of my little solo pro v1 that I still have)
yep. This one is only OKAY compared to many we've done in recent history too!
I wish they would of had an app for it though like some other rc that you buy but no matter it's still cool helicopter I like it a lot
This heli is great, but still has it's limitations, for sure.
recommendation for easy to fly beginner brushless heli with teck i can keep learning on?
i want to buy just once.
maybe tops $200 budget?
interesting!
Awesome videos Brian thank you, did you ever locate a clear replacement rotor blade for this heli? I’d like to replace mine
Did anyone catch how it compares to the C186?
what transmitter is compatable for my echine e120 rc heli
I was considering buying the RC ERA MD500 C189, but it's £130 I would pay this like cos it's quite a big heli, but this C187 looks like an alternative copter, scale nice flyer. Which would you recommend Brian? considering all factors.
Rob
Yum, forget the Crappy Chopper, Look at that Lawn already, need a couple of Flags to chip at. Grass always grows toward the sun. Dig out a bunker, fill it up with quicksand while Your at it Ace!
I reckon if I had a Camera Crew like Yours hanging round,, I couldn't keep My hands on the Sticks!
Double Yumm Ace!!
I have one like that but hard to fly and no sensor flow
@BrianPhillipsRC: Do you have the Airwolf RC helicopter yet ?
Should I get this or Eachine 120 ? (I'm a beginner)
I think the E120 is a better pick, but to be frank, these heli's are super easy to fly. If you want to develop the skill to fly around, you can also get a super cheap done, and it will fly super similar, and less "consequence" flying...

Cheap drone idea - bit.ly/3l2bst0 - JUST a thought...and for only a few bucks.
How many meters is the distance range of the remote control helicopter?🤔🤔
What’s the Weight? Below Remote ID Requirement?
My battery i flashing red fast when charge, and it will not fly..just blinking… pleas help
Did the manual say “calibration without deflections”? Maybe the weed reflections would be a better translation, try to calibrate it on a less reflective surface. Just a thought. 🤷
I have no idea
I want one!
Buy one
@@tommycash7811 Nup, get a fixed wing Demon,, YUMMY!
@@tommycash7811 nah, 220€ is price in EU. With 2 batteries its almost 300€. I will rather buy FMS Rafale 64mm for less money and dont need to buy batteries. I actually want it causs my 15months son is crazy for A10s. I have 4 models(from 1/32 to 1/72) and he points on them and goes "brrrrrrr". 🤩😁
witch one better EC135 | C187
Molded after both, so we wanted to have that for either way people searched to find it ;)
Hi..! Thank you for your video.
how can I buy one of this,,?
Do you ship out of US?
Thanks
can you make a review of ERA C189 BRUSHLESS HELICOPTER. THANKS IN ADVANCE sir brian.
Sure can! Hold on just a little longer ;)
Fenestron!
Brushless direct drive
OT somehow make the exact same MD500 but make the Md500N version...
NOTAR!
No tail rotor
Assume it wouldn't be easy but amazing!
Eachine E120 reborn.
Do you think it's good for indoor flying?
If you are professional then can
I want one hi from Australia 🇦🇺
Can't say I've enjoyed this product. I've found it extremely difficult to get the remote control to connect to the heli. Also the one I have drifts terribly, even with trim/recalibration. Lastly, I know you can use Google lens to translate, but the Chinese instructions are extremely annoying.
Здравствуйте где можно купить ссылку можете дать
I guess I'm stupid, I can't figure out were to buy any of these cool helicopters,why don't they sell them at a Damm retail store.
There's a link at the very top of the description box...
bprc.me/EC135Heli
Most retail stores can't stock a fraction of what's available on line. Also, when you buy through the links, you're supporting our family of 6 and making it possible for us to show you these products. Without reviews like ours, you'd be buying only based on the Chinese marketing ;)
Description box,what is that,I don't see any box,I have never heard of it,well I guess I will never own a nice hele,but if you had 100.00,which hele would you buy sir,thank you for great videos.
plz price the
"Camera Crew" 🤮
I bet Your Eyes are Brown?
Fudgy, the problem Child.
Your kinda old to be playing with toys
I am old...but never gonna stop playing with "toys".
I have the c186 pro and I have the c187 the c186 is very easy to fly does okay and slight wind but the c187 has no issues with wind it goes right through it it's a Snappy little helicopter
You are concerned about shutting off the blades I'm going to test it I'm going to see if shutting off the remote does anything
You and I share a name. except mine is spelled Bryon Phillips.. we could be kin folk..lol I have the eashine 120
