Overview
With the new LamaV4 you get a completely assembled and ready to fly micro heli with a coaxial counter-rotating head design that is so stable almost any first-time flyer can be hovering like a pro in no time. The LamaV4 offers things other similarly designed micro helis can’t – the power and precision of ESKY 8g servos, an advanced 4-in-1 controller, and a great looking, lightweight body that really stands out. The LamaV4 features counter-rotating main blades that cancel out the rotational torque that makes hovering a challenge in conventional helis.They also make rudder turns much easier by slowing down one or the other blade without affecting the stability of the aircraft. This is truly a helicopter that most anyone can fly and beyond your dream.

Ownership verified by DX Very poor Heli
Posted by benbennys on 2/6/2010
Involvement: General (knows how to use it) - Ownership: more than 1 month

Price: starstarstarstarstar
Ease of Use: starstarstarstar
Build Quality: starstarstar
Usefulness: star
Overall Rating: starstar

Pros: The price is very nice and not too expansive. It gives you an idea what this hobby is all about. For a first time heli user it was nice to see how it works and the wind that it makes very nice.

Cons: very poor item.
It can't fly outside because every little wind change its control.
The only way is to fly at home but for inside it is too big. it is not a toy !
you will need a l-o-t of replacement parts because it is very poor built and week parts.

Other Thoughts: don't buy it if you want to enjoy inside and outside flying.
For the inside, only if you have a big place to practice.
Actually, skip this model and but something better.

Bottomline: not useful at all !

Pros: It is a very strong chopter for a very good price. It is recommended that you use this chopter once you have mastered a somewhat simpeler one. If you make an error with this one, you are bound to pick up the pieces then a more simpeler one.

Cons: The only con should be the fact that you need to be skilled. So make sure you are a skilled pilot before you use this chopter!

Other Thoughts: For the price and quality this is the best medium to high skilled pilot. In other shops this chopter is waaaay more expensive. So if you think you have mastered smaller chopters, this would be your next challenge.

Bottomline: Huge chopter for a small price.

Pros: - A helicopter thats small enough too fly in your living room, and also outside if it's little wind.
- Easy to learn how to fly it.(humm)
- Cheap parts on dealextreme. Just search Lama V4.
- Impress your friends with this!!

Cons: Hmm, all the plastic parts on this heli is kinda crap, and the blades the heli came with are SHIT. Buy the extra ones at DX. (SKU 8797)

Other Thoughts: When I got my heli the 4in1 controller was fuXXXd, but after sending email a mail to DX, they shipped a new one for me as soon as I putted a video on youtube showing the heli as it was.

Bottomline: I also bought the alu parts for the heli and a extended inner shaft, and the blades I bought fits perfect for it!
a buddy of mine had the same alu parts, but another set of blades(also bought on DX, so remember, if buying alu parts, buy the blades with SKU number 8797!

Pros: - Easy to learn. I mastered mine in couple of days.
- Very, very stable to fly once you master it. I can easily hover and fly with very small space.
- Much fun to play with.
- Lots of cheap replacement parts (compatible with Lama V3).

Cons: - Breaks blades easily when flying in cold weather. It's also relatively easy to break a blade holder. I've broken two already. Luckily, DX has lot of replacement parts.
- Not very suitable for outdoors when there's wind. Need to have a more powerful heli for that.
- The price has been going up a lot from the original...

Other Thoughts: Buy some replacement blades and Mystery 7.4V LiPos and you're good to go.
I don't know whether there are any real differences with V3 except for the looks. I heard the V4 had more powerful servos, who knows.

Bottomline: Good buy for a beginner. I don't regret getting this.
