The Ugears Mini Helicopter is the first helicopter model in our Smart Collection, joining the Mini Biplane, Mad Hornet, Steampunk Airship and Aviator models (with interchangeable plane and helicopter components) in our family of fabulous Ugears flying devices . The open design allows you to view all aspects of this DIY helicopter model. This 3D flying whirlwind is packed with realistic details, including a spinning rotor mast and main rotor, spinning tail rotor, two-seater cockpit with cyclic stick controls, opening doors, adjustable spotlight at the front, retractable rear wheels, landing skids and a helipad on which you can rest your model.
To put your Ugears Mini Helicopter in motion, place the On/Off switch to the “Off” position, give the silent ratchet several turns to wind up the rubber band motor, lower the rear wheels, place the model on a surface plane, then hold it gently while you flip the switch to "On", release and watch your 3D puzzle helicopter zoom forward about 1.5m. Admire the superb realism of this rotating main rotor! When not in operation, you can land your helicopter on the provided helipad for an attractive static display.
With 167 parts, this is an easy model to build but the exceptional Ugears design allows this DIY helicopter to always have that “Wow” aspect.
