Description

WLtoys K100 6CH 3D/6G RC Helicopter with Brushless Motor

The WLtoys K100 RC helicopter is a compact 6-channel collective-pitch (CP) remote control helicopter designed for both indoor and outdoor flying. It features a flybarless rotor-head design, a 6-axis gyroscope system, and a brushless 8520 main motor for responsive flight performance. The included 2.4GHz Mode 2 transmitter provides approximately 120 meters of control distance and allows pilots to switch between 6G stabilization and 3D flight modes.

The K100 is designed for beginner and intermediate RC helicopter enthusiasts. Its 6G mode provides assisted stabilization for more controlled flying, while 3D mode is designed for experienced pilots who want to perform aerobatic maneuvers. The helicopter comes ready to fly with a 3.7V 250mAh 25C Li-Po battery, charger, transmitter, spare blades, and replacement components.

Key Features of the WLtoys K100

• 6-channel RC helicopter: Provides control over the helicopter’s primary flight functions.

• 3D and 6G flight modes: Switch between stabilized 6G flying and 3D mode using the transmitter.

• Flybarless design: The rotor-head design reduces mechanical resistance and provides a compact helicopter configuration.

• Brushless 8520 main motor: Provides the main rotor power required for responsive flight.

• 6-axis gyroscope: Helps provide stabilization during flight.

• 2.4GHz Mode 2 transmitter: Offers approximately 120 meters of control distance.

• 3.7V 250mAh Li-Po battery: The included battery is designed for approximately 7–8 minutes of operating time under the supplied specifications.

• Ready-to-fly package: Includes the helicopter, transmitter, battery, charger, spare blades, tail rotor and other accessories.

WLtoys K100 Design and Flight Performance

The WLtoys K100 uses a flybarless collective-pitch helicopter configuration with a main blade diameter of approximately 245mm. The compact design makes the model suitable for indoor and outdoor use when conditions are appropriate. Its lightweight construction combines metal and plastic components, with the supplied specifications listing an approximate helicopter weight of 45.5g.

The K100’s rotor system is designed around aerodynamic principles intended to provide sufficient lift and stability. The flybarless design also reduces the mechanical components associated with traditional flybar-equipped helicopter systems.

Power is supplied by an 8520 brushless main motor, while the tail system uses a 615 motor. The combination provides the power needed for the helicopter’s collective-pitch flight system. Actual flight characteristics can vary depending on flying conditions, battery condition, pilot settings and flying style.

3D and 6G Flight Modes

One of the main features of the WLtoys K100 is its ability to switch between 3D and 6G flight modes.

The 6G mode uses the helicopter’s stabilization system to assist with maintaining a more controlled flight attitude. This makes it particularly useful for pilots who are learning to operate a collective-pitch RC helicopter.

The 3D mode changes the gyro configuration and allows experienced pilots to perform advanced aerobatic maneuvers. Depending on pilot skill and conditions, the system is designed to support maneuvers such as flips, rolls, inverted flight, funnels and tick-tocks.

The transmitter includes a 3D/Idle-Up switch and throttle-hold switch, along with an LCD display and low-voltage warning. A hovering midpoint adjustment is also provided to help configure the helicopter’s hovering point.

Because 3D flight requires greater pilot control and experience, beginners should become familiar with the helicopter in the stabilized mode before attempting advanced maneuvers.

WLtoys K100 Remote Controller

The included transmitter operates on 2.4GHz and uses Mode 2 controls. The stated control distance is approximately 120 meters.

The transmitter provides access to the helicopter’s flight modes and includes dedicated controls for functions such as 3D/Idle-Up and throttle hold. It also features an LCD display and low-voltage warning.

The transmitter requires 6 × 1.5V AA batteries, which are not included in the package according to the supplied specifications.

Battery and Charging

The WLtoys K100 includes a 3.7V 250mAh 25C Li-Po battery. The listed operating time is approximately 7–8 minutes, while charging takes approximately 30 minutes under the provided specifications.

A two-port charger is included, allowing two compatible batteries to be charged simultaneously. The package also includes a USB cable.

Li-Po batteries should be handled carefully. Do not overcharge or over-discharge the battery, expose it to high temperatures, place it in water, or dispose of it in fire. Always follow the supplied operating instructions when charging and using the battery.
