RC helicopter are the recent electric helicopters and it is best innovation and recent development. It is light weight and uses efficient battery system; this type of RC helicopter is easy to fly and is inexpensive.  The parts and accessory of the helicopter is available in cheap price. There are two; three and four channel coaxial Radio Control helicopter is available in the market.  It also uses the carbon fiber that offers durability and strength.    Flight duration includes ten to fifteen minutes. This is available and suitable for both the indoors and outdoors flight. This is best for the beginners.

There are various types of the RC helicopter that are available in the market that are electric batteries,Types of the RC helicopters Articles Nitro, patrol and gasoline, and gas turbine and coaxial RC helicopter. This type depends on the type of the power sources that is used in the helicopters. Electric type of the radio controlled helicopter is common and it is rapid development. The Nitro helicopter is used normally; nowadays the gas turbine radio control helicopter is also in great demand.

Helicopter with Nitro fuel is coming in different range of sizes and size varies from fifteen to ninety sizes. This is also called as a glow fuel model and the number of the helicopter depends on the size of that particular engine that is used in that RC helicopter. The larger engine has the big rotor blade.  The flight time of that glow fuel RC helicopter can vary from seven to fourteen minutes. This flight time also depends on the tuning and the size of the engines of that helicopter.  The height of the helicopter depends on the size of the controllers.

 Brushed motors are used in electronic RC helicopters.  It uses the latest technology of the electric battery that make it feasible at the time of flight ,  It uses a variety of types of the electric batteries but lithium polymer battery is one of the best batteries that offers high  electric current  that is required for the   good performance .
