Scale PERFECTION in a RC Helicopter - 1/32 Apache AH-64

The Apache AH-64 in a scale RC Helicopter is something special. This model from YU XIANG is genuinely a dream RC heli. Simple to fly, yet powerful and 3D capable. The gyro makes it great to learn and progress with! I was impressed!!!

Add 15 -20 expo into the radio - easy to do on the E6 radio. Make sure it is a negative - value to soften the response. You can lengthen the Tx stick also for more precision. A fractionless pitch is anoth optionto soften these helis. Add a DSMX sat and you can fly on Spektrum dead easy and you can then softnethe pitch around the mid stick as well. SBUS sat and you can fly other radios. Stock protocol is Futaba. OpenTx is another radio option.

In the E6 radio it is dead easy to soften the flight repsonse, my default setup for the UH 60's is:

AIL, ELE and Tail: stock setting is 0 expo, add at least -15 into the expo, needs to be negative to soften the curve in these radios

Low Rates - drop that by 10 points from the factory setup for a smoother 3D low rates flight envelope.

Leave high rates at 100 otherwise 6D mode is overly tame. Consider though 85% in high rates if you are flying mainly in 3D mode and just want 6G as a bail out setting.

Pitch - consider easing back to 10 degrees from the stock 12+ degrees, multiple the pitch setting by 0.85 to get the new lower pitch values. Be careful with this though, I have not yet recieved my AH-64 and need to verify this change.

Other trick I do is stretch the pitch range by having static hover (about 5 degree applied pitch at the stick mid point) but this is not great for inverted flying. Again this is what i do on the UH60s and still need to confrim this on the AH64

Tx stick are height adjustable - taller = slower repsonse and more precision.

Radio has adjustable spring tension - i like a soft spring setting, personal choice.

The Apache is SUCH AN ICONIC HELICOPTER😍 The fact that this thing is 3D capable is INSANE!!!! 10/10 on Yelp!!

Cool little helicopter. Always liked the Apache. People say $500 is too much but i don't think thats bad for what you get. Ive spent a hell of a lot more in this hobby.

Very good looking and powerful helicopter! She looks great in the sky and really has a lot of power! Unbelievable that it just is powered by a 3S battery!

amazing rc apache ... when it flies in the sky, it looks like a real helicopter

[Cakey]

Ahh yes. The formidable “Commmanchshahah”. I love it lol.

9:19 that monitor on the left of the screen is your throttle position, not a battery level. There's one for each of the stick inputs and the blocks on the screen are the positions of the switches.

Also, that transmitter looks familiar. I'm certain you can dial in expo but you need to go into the menus. Read the instructions.

Love the video, ah-60 is the Blackhawk and ah-64 is the Apache

[gdub-gdyj]

Great video! Looking forward to purchasing one of these.

Camache' 😅😂 I was like wh-wh-what?!lol Yeah Apache longbow. It was really getting buffeted in low range but crazy power in high range. It actually sounded like a turbine engine. I'm almost afraid to look at the price. But she is a beauty.

You sold me! I've loved helicopters since I was a kid back in 1974 I had a helicopter attached to a thin and long hard wire you could fly it in circles. lol! They've come along way. I traded another kid something for it. These would be cool to just display in your man cave room as well.

i appreciate how you always provide fresh insights!

Hi, this radio have some values you can change.. exponential too..., nice flight, mine is on the way.

[bohan]

Since you mentioned it, the manufacturer should make a Comanche version and a Hind version of this model.

[artykohl]

I like how, at times, it sounds like a full sized chopper.

[derekc]

Great review Jay! Coultu demonstrate how do u fly in 3D mode with the control sticks? Thanks!❤

[Reptielenfreak]

Only thing wish it would be bigger. A 600 / 800 gyro or gps would be a dream

[steveoD]

This is a great hobby but it is so expensive

[AlexisVILLEMAGNE]

Salut
Merci pour ce premier retour !
Vivement la version GPS, peut-être moins nerveuse à piloter mais pour ce prix, plus sécurisée au vu de l'investissement 😉

[betofazzo]

The GPS version offers a more stable and scale flight experience, making it more enjoyable to observe and safer overall.
