My new walkera CB180D RC helicopter check-up after first crash
I bought this helicopter on October 2009. The first flight was ended with a serious crash. And the whole helicopter parts have to renewed. 2nd attempt was a broken tail blade. 3rd attempt was another broken tail blade. 4th attempt was the main blade. And 5th attempt was the swashplate ……..

walkera sucks. I bought my nephew a german made heli at conrad in zurich switzerland for 1/2 the price. Robust Rugged and Ready to Go out of the box. The kid loves it and I am jealous….
Yes, i crashed my CB180Z too today and broke a main-blade. I am a beginner too and it’s a good idea to have already the most parts at home: Main blades, tail-blades, gears for the tail-rotor, main-gear, landing-gear, main-shaft, main parts for the rotor-head, tail-boom etc.
I simply installed two new blades and continued my flight (this time without a crash)
@toyyou2jp
thanks a lot for the helpful information !
cheers m8 !
@AuroraCypher Yes, the transmitter in the video clip is included with CB-180D. I think the latest CB-180D will include this version of transmitter. Some sellers may be selling CB-180D of earlier version and that’s why buyers may get a different/older transmitter.
Hey thankyou for sharing i love your control !
does it come with that helicopter ?
i am thinking of getting this model type but im just worry that i might not get the same remote control as yours… i was told that some company misleading and send u a different remote control than this one
@Thechop06 It never did bend. The main shaft is made of strong steel.
@Thechop06 I guess every RC pilot come to the same situation.
Ya/ your rotor head is defenitly bent. same occured wit mine, after a small creash. Agree strongly with the idea that they make their money from parts sales. Iv spent up around the price of the heli in the first pace on replacement parts in about 2 months
I also have this helicopter, how ever I changed the stock blades to xtreme blades (B) of a big lama model and a tail rotor of a honey bee FP, the tail rotor I cutt about 1,5CM off and its flying like better before. the stock blades are cheap and break with even a finger stress on it(tail rotor) and the main blades crack.
I understand you, I feel the same, is very sad the fragility of this heli. I think the business is in selling spare parts.
lol i had a little crash with mine too!
Use a pair of light wire plier.(the one with short nose and sharp end). Pull the tail-rotor gently. That’ll get the job done.
