The “crashless” way to RC helicopter flying

"One of the barriers to enjoying RC helicopters is the lengthy learning
curve and the associated crashes. Perhaps you’ve tried a heli in the
past, became frustrated, and then put it away in the closet. The HeliCommand, distributed by MS Composit, is an autopilot that allows the beginner to learn how to hover and fly safely without the fear of accidents. The unit easily installs on most helicopters from 450-size electrics to large nitro and scale helis and also works with
most transmitters. It weighs only 33 grams and includes an internal high-quality, heading-hold gyro.

The HeliCommand is unique in that it uses an optical sensor and triple-axis gyros for stabilization. In the “position” mode, the autopilot uses the optical sensor and gyros to hold the heli horizontally and in a fixed geographical position. This is ideal for learning
how to hover and slow circuits. The unit will actively brake the heli if it is moving. Stick movements will override the autopilot and, if you let go of them, it will return to a stable hover. In the “horizontal” mode, the optical sensor is not used and the unit stabilizes the heli in the horizontal attitude."
