View Full Version : WALKERA 4#3B 2.4Ghz Metal Upgraded Edition Helicopter
I have ordered WALKERA 4#3B 2.4Ghz Metal Upgraded Edition Helicopter from ehirobo in the following link:
http://www.ehirobo.com/shop/product_info.php?cPath=82_90&products_id=5874 (http://www.ehirobo.com/shop/product_info.php?cPath=82_90&products_id=5874)
The price is $99.99 only.
The delivery speed is fast and excellent. It arrived in 3 days by UPS.
The quality of this helicopter is good as well. The flight is stable and smooth. It is a really nice metal upgraded version helicopter.
I have attached some photos of my WALKERA 4#3B 2.4Ghz Metal Upgraded Edition Helicopter.
Have used this helicopter for several times. After fully charged the battery, the flight time can last for 7-9 minutes.

it's a surprisingly nice flying little guy. A handful at first, but once you get used to it, it's a great little thing to fly around in the house :)

This helicopter is really good for indoor flight. :)

Posted a new vid of the little thing.... with MIA flybars, heat sink, and swash support. It made a tiny bit of difference, but was flying great before stock :) Ground effect is really tough on this little guy, keeps you on your toes, but pop it up a foot or two, and it is really stable.

I just ordered one from RCHelicopterShop.com, at first I was kinda miffed that it was $129 versus the $99 from ehirobo but the shipping was only $20, so it was a wash. Ordered a couple extra batteries, can't wait. :)

Please let me know what the delivery time is once it arrives.
That's what I'm looking for; A US based seller (to buy the heli) with parts available ("out of stock" is of no use to anyone) that doesn't take as long as it does from China.
Thanks.

I bought mine from Helipal.com. It was $148 shipped Speed Post with an extra battery and main blades. It left Hong Kong on a Monday and was in my hands in Florida that Friday before noon! The heli is a great flier too. Mine was perfectly set up out of the box. I just charged the battery and flew. I was surprised that there's no gyro gain pot on the 4-in-1 but it does have servo travel control so you can dial it in as you like. Looks like a step in the right direction for Walkera. If you need an indoor heli, it's money well spent.

I don't know what shipping options you guys are looking at but I just ordered one with a few spares and it only cost me $35 to ship all the way to Canada. I'm used to the wait times for USPS so I have no problem. I'm excited for a good indoor bird to last me through the impending 8 months of snow

Hey All,
I've just got myself one of these cracking little helis to mess around with indoors and all I can say is WOW!
Absolutely love this model as a bit of fun while the weather is so rubbish outside. So far have got one battery with another 2 on order.
Has anyone seen the wiring adaptor which allows 3 batterys to be charged at the same time, complete with balance connector and if so has anyone seen where to get it seperately without a charger and batterys to go with it?

mine arrived and I love it. Forget what people say about this not being a newbie heli because of the somewhat twitchy nature. You can ram it full speed into an obstacle, pick it up and start flying immediately after. which is much better than having to repair with every little thing that happens

Just found this forum so thought I'd pop in and say hi. I'm a big fan of the 4#3 series and have had an original 4#3 since March, bought a 4#3B when it came out, then last week completed the collection with a 4#3A. There's not much difference between the A and B, but I have to say the A is the more accurate flier. There is less free play in the plastic parts on the A than in the cnc on the B. Also the A is 2 grams lighter which isn't much, but you do notice the extra available power, and the very slightly lower head speed may contribute to it's slightly better flight characteristics too.
That said, both the A and B are much improved over the old MHz 4#3. I'm about to upgrade my old 4#3 to 2.4GHz to see what improvement that makes.
I buy all my 4#3 stuff from here: http://www.chinesejade.com/walkera_Heli.htm
The 4#3A was delivered in 6 days, parts usually take 7-8 days. Whats more postage is only $5 worldwide!

I just wish they made a "bind and fly" version compatible with Spektrum. I hate collecting cheap RTF transmitters.
Very cool. I've just stumbled onto this Walkera 4#3B machine by accident. I hadn't paid much attention, but recently I'm thinking of an indoors heli for Winter months. By indoors, I mean in the living room. Comments on this micro heli seem very positive.
Can anyone tell me how long the stock motor lasts ? How about the electronics and battery ?
Any way to charge the battery on my Cellpro 4s balance charger ?

no need to use your balance charger on the 4#3 battery. it's a single cell so it only needs to be charged not balanced. you could go through a major pain building an adaptor and figuring all the settings on your charger...or you could just plug the included adaptor into the wall and charge

You won't regret buying one of these. Stock motor can last 200+ flights. Battery lasts up to 9 minutes or so but restrict your flying time to around 5 mins to prevent motor getting too hot. Battery will recharge within 30 mins. Buy a few extra batteries anyway they're cheap on ebay.
Electronics and servos are much improved over the old 4#3. Tail holds well and everything is smooth.

Thanks for the replies. I'll be watching for a good deal on one of these. From what I've seen, the 2.4 Ghz. model is only $10 more than the 72 Mhz. version ? Would the 2.4 be safe to fly around others at an indoor event ?

Hi guys, There are plenty of U.S. based internet shops for Walkera helis and parts. You can't beat the shipping time (3 days). I don't buy from overseas anymore. The 4#3B is only $99 and the co-axial Walkera 5G6 is also $99 (suprisingly powerful and agile for a co-axial). If you are looking for the bigger version that can be flown in the yard with calmer conditions go with the Walkera 4G1B... I've one and it's awesome.:banana
