We've bought 4 S107G copters, but none of them read co axial, is this copter somehow different?

Coaxial copters have two blades that rotate in oppisite directions. The yaw (turn) adjustment changes relative speed between these blades, making the heli rotate on its axis.. Flying forward would initiate a turn. The gyro onboard constantly adjusts blade speed to keep heli locked in the same position till you turn it with the controller. The rear small blade tips the heli to get forward or reverse motion.

I would not think that they would be any different. I believe co axial is referring to the fact that each set of blades has its own "axle." If this were not the case the copters would not be able to fly, because the blades have to spin opposite directions. So, I imagine you have the same thing.

If the helicopter has two blades it is a co axial helicopter. To awnswer your question it is not different.

I found this via looking for fixes for my TrandLabs SKEYE doing the exact same thing. Ended up here on Amazon at the product page for the Cheerson CX-10 where people are reporting the exact same issue as well. I flew my SKEYE once while at my desk at work, it crashed and does the same ever since... the one motor powers on as soon as you plug it in to charge regardless of the position of the power switch. Wonder if all of these are made at the same factory and just different shells essentially.

I had trouble to get it to work and sent it back. I recommend the Gaui GV-100 FPV ($369) from rc-drones.com. Works perfectly. Check it out.

those are two totally different helis.. I started flying with the s107 then stepped up to a fixed pitch Blade 120. next step up is a Flybarless, collective pitch heli.. much harder to fly. but a real ball once you get it.

Hi; I did order one of these from a California seller and was sent the older version (V959) I had to send it back for a refund since it was not what I ordered. The V222 looks exactly the same as the V959 except that the V222 has LED lights that run along the arms to the props. it also has 6 gyro stabilization versus 4 on the V959. The control board (mother board) is a different color too. I believe the V959 is blue and the V222 is green. As far as the transmitter I received I couldn't comment since I sent it back. I did end up ordering from another company out of China. It did come with the dual mode transmitter.

It's fixed, don't know why, but does not work as advertised! The heli is great though and because the lift is on a non springed joystick it's better, if it did switch modes then it would use the other side as lift. Which can cause a crash since its spring loaded, I'm assuming they have other controllers that do that and generic adaptation caused the misprinting. Good luck! And don't forget to switch the h-l setting and then also you can change the servo arm to the farthest position and the copter can fly much faster

Same here, no info in box. I did get it on-line thru DJI. Mine came with missing accessories, decals, and it was a discontinued model with prop nuts. Requested a new one by phone with Amazon Supervisor. Was not told it was an open box. SUPRISE. The vendor will not issue a RA (Return Authorization)

Jim, I bought mine about a year ago and my package came with two quadcopters (Gaui 330X-S Quad Flyer and the Heli-Max 1SQ). They were harder to fly because they are small and you have to keep them close. My package also came with the following helicopters. Bell 222, Dominion 3D, Dominion 3D 90, Dominion 3D 90 FBL, Dominion 400, Dominion 450 3D, Ecureuil, Furion 450, Gaui X7, Heli-Max Ave 400 3D EP RTF, Heli-Max Axe CP, Heli-Max Axe EZ, Huey UH1, Jet Ranger, Mako F3C, Schweizer 300C, Schweizer 300C W/Floats, Sikorsky Skycrane, Synergy E6, Synergy E7, Thunder Tiger Innovator EXP, Tutor 600, Tutor 600 Trainer, V22 Osprey, and the Westland Lynx. My favorite helicopter is the Lynx because it has four blades and is more stable and realistic to fly. The Osprey is also cool to fly - especially from the cockpit view. Also included is a training site that teaches hovering. Day and night flight are also available, plus you can add wind if you like. Great fun with awesome graphics. Camera views vary with aircraft, but include fixed on the ground, nose camera, cockpit view, or chase plane view. Enjoy. Package also includes a blimp, Wright Brothers flyer, sea planes, sail planes, gas and electric, single and multi engine planes

Jerry,My only suggestion would be that if there is a pin missing, that is a factory error and you should have DJI or whatever store you bought it from replace the whole copter. Can you send me a picture of what you're talking about and I'll compare it to mine and see what I can come up with? I'm usually pretty good at figuring these things out. Email me directly at: darrenofficer@yahoo.com

Ours did the same thing. Not sure how to correCT the problem. We bought this one because of the high number of positive reviews, as a trainer before purchasing the more expensive quad copter with camera. We kept this one for parts incase we buy another one, but pretty disappointed in this copter. Good luck, hubby did say there were some you tube videos on correcting the problem, but he has lost patience with it.

I would imagine this might be the older version. It was out back in 2012 so I'm sure by now they have come up with something newer. If I'm not mistaken I think I read something about a newer one. But I'm not sure. I just know this one has been out for some time. That being said, if you do not have one of these, it's a pretty good Heli to fly. As some of the reviews have said, it's not for a beginner but still not too difficult to fly for someone who has a little flying time under their belt and I am assuming by the question asked, you have some experience flying these. I have a lot of fun with it. I have six helicopters. Most of them are indoor size but I do have 2 that are outdoor copters. This is one of them.

Kenny, Thanks for writing to me. I am not sure why you are having a problem with yours, however I had no problems or issues with mine fitting my 107l at all. I wished there was more I could tell you, however that is all I can say. Perhaps try to contact the manufacturer regarding this problem. Good Luck with it. Regards and thank you. P.S. I love my copter however my Cat hates it with a passion.

The last helicopter I bought says "3D Full Function Helicopter" on the nose of it & is a S107G. It is white. I have a yellow one which says just S107 & does not say "Full Function" on it. I can see no difference in how they fly.

There is only the one that comes with the copter. Too bad it is written with the English skills of a preschooler. There are some good tutorials on the Web. You have to be real specific with your Google questions.

You probably need to balance it. In the center of the remote there's a dial. While hovering, slowly move it from the middle to either the right or left. When the copter is no longer pulling to either side, it should be balanced. If you can't reach balance, it may be defective.

I believe they are one and the same ! I think the G just means it has a gyro ,which all the Syma 107s have ! Watch out for companies that sell FAKE Syma 107s ! ! They are junk compared to the "real deal" ! .....GOOD LUCK I hope I was able to help you ?

You need to download Clearveiw. Works great. If your into quad copters heli-x works well. Real flight is the best if you want to spend the money but it's not nesasary. Dialing in the controller is confusing but there are a few posts here that tell you what to do.
