The latest ESky Honey Bee King is the third incarnation in the Esky Honey Bee King RC helicopter series. More than just a coat of paint, the Honey Bee King V3 offer many new elements increasing the stability, power and accuracy of the helicopter giving even more control to the pilot.

Building upon a legend is tough, but Esky seems to have pulled it off. Key improvements over the traditional Honey Bee King 2 include with a newly designed 2.4GHz radio system which utilizes advanced Spread Spectrum Technology and digital FSK(frequency shift key) coding technology. This offers many advantages compared to traditional 72 MHz transmitters such as “zero” radio inference and increased flight range.

Underneath the hood is an upgraded high performance brushless motor (EK5-0005 3900KV) and a powerful electronic speed controller (25A). Powering this powerful combination in an massive 11.1V 1500 Li-Po Battery resulting in longer flights and reduced maintenance. Attached to is tail boom is the best Head Lock Gyro created by ESky (EK2-0704B). Which means the Honey Bee King 3 will keep its tail locked no matter how much the wind blows or the torque of the main rotor changes. The only time this helicopter will move right or left is when you command it to do so.

Comments about Honey Bee King 3 2.4 Ghz RC Helicopter:
wouldn't start out with this nor buy as a gift. to many problems to name. there are alot better starters out there same price. but if you are serious about getting into this hobby then spring for a more expensive heli or at the least a better quality. as soon as you learn how to fly this heli is no longer worth it. costs for upgrades just so you can do basic flying are alot more than if you just paid an extra 300 bucks on something you can just tone down "with transmitter" to your flight knowledge then increase it back up so you get more enjoyment out of knowing you didn't "out grow" your heli. basicly its like jumping from a micro toy to a dual hobby in a month you will be wanting something this heli just can't give you for less than another 600 bucks

Comments about Honey Bee King 3 2.4 Ghz RC Helicopter:
If you look around the heli forums on the web nowadays, you'll see that this is a pretty popular heli, along with the lama, for beginner/intermediate level pilots. My buddy got this heli and had me try it out for him to see if he should give it to his kid to get into the hobby. Very stable, flies well, and can stand a few crashes. Its notoriety as the new standard beginner/intermediate heli is warranted.

Comments about Honey Bee King 3 2.4 Ghz RC Helicopter:
This is pretty much a beginner's helicopter, but be warned - it's a little trickier to control than you might think! I'd start by spending time with a trainer for a bit before tackling the honey bee king. It will help and might prevent you from crashing and losing out on a pretty expensive hobby toy! With that being said, this heli is pretty forgiving and is a great one to start practicing basic tricks on. Just make sure you have the fundamentals down beforehand

Comments about Honey Bee King 3 2.4 Ghz RC Helicopter:
The Honey Bee King is a good entry level helicopter for those of you looking to get deeper into the hobby. It's definitely not a toy, and its price makes it a great choice for pilots who may still want to take some time practicing on a relatively cheap heli like this one - you don't want to risk crashing a nice $300-$400 trex! Highly recommended as either a side plane for more expert hobbyists or as your primary plane if you're a novice. -A
