The RC ERA C190 (H145) is a scale 1:30, flybarless brushless helicopter designed for adults and beginners who want stable, realistic flying without a steep learning curve. It combines a 6-axis gyro, barometric altitude hold, and optical flow positioning with dual brushless direct-drive motors and a Fenestron-style ducted tail rotor for smooth, precise control.

Scale Details, Smooth Power
Inspired by the Eurocopter H145 rescue helicopter, the C190 features a clean fuselage and Fenestron tail for both realism and safety. The dual brushless setup and flybarless head deliver precise authority in forward flight, hover, and gentle circuits.
Stability Stack: Gyro + Baro + Optical Flow
The onboard 6-axis gyro dampens unwanted movements. A barometric sensor holds height, while optical flow tracks ground texture to reduce drift in good lighting. Together they make hovering and low-altitude cruising easier for new pilots.
Three Speed Modes & One-Key Start/Land
Start with low rates for smooth responses, then step up as your skills grow. One-key takeoff lifts to a safe height; one-key landing brings the heli down gently.

FAQ
Does it support manual takeoff and landing?
Yes. You can lift off and land manually, or use one-key takeoff/landing for convenience.
Can it fly inverted or 3D like the C123?
No. The C190 focuses on 6G-style stability for scale flying and hovering, not 3D aerobatics/inverted flight.
When does optical flow work best?
Optical flow requires textured ground and adequate light. Indoors on uniform surfaces or in low light, rely on gyro + altitude hold.
My hover slowly circles—how to fix it?
Check blades for damage, ensure level ground, recalibrate the gyro per the manual, and verify the battery is fully seated.
Is Mode 1 available?
Some batches support Mode 1/Mode 2 variants. Check the variant options on this page or contact support before purchase.
