The new double horse 9104 collective pitch?

[krazikev]

Has anyone seen this new heli? It is different than there others

[solentlife]

To be honest given the pricing of Trex Clones with full CCPM ... I don't understand the spending of similar money on lesser models ...

The DH is notorious and any development based on it is suspect in my view.

At end of day with Heli's it's not only purchase price - but spares availability / pricing as well. The 450 Trex clone has that hands down beat every day I reckon ...........

I have both and the 450 cost hundreds more I fly both and at the end of the day they both fly the same to me and both last (as far as brakage) and if my dh 9101 did brake I can order parts just as fast as the hobby grade over rated and over priced 450 trex which Remember that I have both. I can get the same size heli as my trex for 60 bucks (rtf) on xheli.com now granted I know I can't program it like my trex but I can fly around comfortable as the trex.

Trex is Trex ... I'm talking Clone.

But everyone to their own ...

Is this the DH you are talking about ?

CP ? where ? I read that it's the standard 3.5 ch as others provide with no pitch or bank control ...

I appreciate that I may be in minority on this ... but for ~ $80 + shipping ?

Yep thats it, great price isnt it? Cp (collective pitch) means the heli has two blades coaxial means it has 4 blades coaxial is much easier to fly

Yer having me on ... yer having a joke ?

I have Co-Ax heli ... Syma S006 - flies nicely indoors.

I have 2 ... yes 2 450 Trex Clones with full CP ...

I have a 2ch Bumble bee fixed pitch as well.

I am fully aware of difference of each type of heli available .... and the DH 9104 can never be called a CP Heli as it only has 3ch and the so called 1/2ch which is a gyro.

Great Price ? I can buy a CF / metal barebones 450 Trex clone for about $40 .. motors etc. of Ebay and have it in air for around $100 (shipping will push it over) ... OK I supply my own radio ... So please where is the great price ?

Frame : $40
3700KV motor : $20
ESC 35A : $10
2200 3S 25C Lipo : $15
Blades : $5
Gyro : $15
GRP canopy : $5

so far $110 ............... above prices based on my own purchases from 450 parts suppliers.

Having standard 9gr servos and full Heli CP radios - means I'm in air once installed.

Are you a seller of the DH ?

I think you are confusing the term. Collective pitch reffers to the mixing of throttle (Headspeed) and Pitch ratio together (6ch). The collective is increased as the throttle is increased to provide lift. Yest collective pitch helis have two main rotors , but keep in mind there are three blade, up to five blade rotrs with collective pitch most multi rotor heads are flybarless but are collective. what you are reffering to is what is known as Fixed pitch , there is no collective management with this type of heli.(3 or 4ch)
Caxial refers to 4 blades but each set of two rotors rotate opposite of the other to counteract tourqe
