Good evening, I bought my RC helicopter two days ago, a Hélix GC-100 from GIFI for €30 and it's great. I wanted to know if I can improve it, how to paint it, boost it, etc. Thanks for the future responses :) V

    Hi, I have the same issue if we can call it a problem, but could you help me? Because when I charge it on my computer, it doesn't charge, and the manual says to check because normally there is a light that turns on. But for me, there is no light? Why? (the helicopter is off)
    Please help me.

      the charge indicator and on the USB socket of the cable.

      You need to charge the battery for it to work. The first time I tried it, the remote didn't detect it; it blinks quickly, but that's all.

      How do I connect the controller to the helicopter? I charged it for 120 minutes and nothing happens when the helicopter and the controller are turned on... the little light in the center of the controller keeps blinking!
      What should I do?
      Thank you in advance.

    I broke my gyroscopic bar, if someone could tell me the price and advise me whether I should change this part, or if this part is more expensive than 30€ to buy a second helicopter.

    Hello,
    did you have to perform any special procedure for the remote control to detect the helicopter? Because mine does not detect it..
    Thank you

      I had the same problem, but for me it was a manufacturing defect
      I brought it back and they replaced it
      now it works normally
      :)

      Hello, I think it needs to be changed at Gifi. I had the same problem and then it worked.

      Hello, I don't have the same remote control as in the attached manual, I don't know what the R/L button/dial at the top right is for, and the button on the bottom left for "low/high" speed, when do we use it? Does anyone have the real manual for this GC 100 model? Thanks.

        The knob in the upper left is used to stabilize the helicopter and prevent it from spinning on itself, and the two buttons are the flight speeds: one for slow and the other for fast.

    Hi everyone, I have a problem with the helicopter... When I take off and put the power to max, it lifts off but I can't control it, so it goes up to 7 or 8 meters and then it drops suddenly. Has this ever happened to anyone? What should I do?

      Hi =>
      Not enough batteries, it's the classic case. Or the quartz (first check the one in the remote by opening it, it's a rectangle with probably 22 mHz written on it. The same should be present under the casing)
