How it flies
In plain words
-
Let go and it holds
In GPS mode, M10 positioning with GPS, GLONASS and Galileo keeps the helicopter steady in one place, so you always have time to think.
-
One switch brings it home
Flip the return switch and it flies back to where it took off. It also heads home on its own when the battery runs low.
-
Lost signal? It comes back
If the radio link drops, the helicopter starts its return by itself instead of drifting away.
Satellite positioning you can rely on
The M10 module tracks GPS, GLONASS and Galileo satellites, so the helicopter holds its spot to within about 1.5 m horizontally and 0.5 m vertically when the signal is good. Semi-automatic assisted flight keeps the controls calm while you learn.
Direct-drive brushless tail
There is no tail shaft or belt to adjust. A brushless motor in the tail drives the tail rotor directly, which is efficient, responsive and has fewer parts to maintain, and the aerodynamic tail design adds stability.
3508 brushless power, up to 20 minutes
A 3508 brushless main motor with a 13T motor gear and 81T main gear, run by a 60A ESC, gives up to 20 minutes per battery, well beyond the 5 to 10 minutes of many RC helicopters.
80 cm rotor for steady flight
The large rotor of about 80 cm gives the Bell 407 a calm, stable feel in the air, and digital servos keep the controls precise. The blades fit on in minutes when the helicopter arrives.
Scale detail inspired by the real 407
Modelled on Bell's four-blade 407, it pairs refined scale detailing with an AirLIFE air medical scheme, clear cockpit glazing, a four-blade rotor head and working navigation lights, so it looks the part on the ground and in the air.
3D manual mode when you are ready
Once GPS and ATT flying feel natural, 3D manual mode removes the assistance and gives you full control. Switch to it only at a safe height, and switch back to GPS mode whenever you want help again.
The real aircraft
The story of the Bell 407
The Bell 407 is a single-engine, four-blade helicopter developed from the Bell 206 series. Known for smooth flight, more power and an advanced rotor system, it is widely used for aerial work, law enforcement and private aviation.
-
1995
The Bell 407 makes its first flight, developed from the Bell 206L LongRanger with a four-blade main rotor.
-
1996
Deliveries begin, and the 407 goes on to serve air medical, law enforcement and private operators.
-
Today
Our Bell 407 recreates it in an AirLIFE air medical scheme with working navigation lights.

Is the Bell 407 a good first RC helicopter?
It can be, with supervision. GPS mode holds the helicopter in place and assisted flight keeps the controls calm, so a new pilot can learn step by step. FLYWING recommends it for ages 14 and up; start in a large open field and practise hovering first.
What do I need before the first flight?
Four AA batteries for the transmitter, a charged flight battery and a large open space away from people, trees and buildings. The rotor blades ship separately in the box, so fit them first. In the US, recreational pilots must pass the FAA TRUST test, and models over 250 g (0.55 lb) must be registered with the FAA.
How long does it fly?
Up to 20 minutes per battery, compared with the 5 to 10 minutes of many RC helicopters. Wind, flying style and battery condition all affect it.
What happens if I lose the signal or the battery runs low?
It starts a return to its takeoff point by itself when the radio signal is lost or the battery voltage drops, and you can trigger the same return with one switch. Fly where the path home is clear of trees and buildings.
I fly fixed-wing. How different is flying a helicopter?
A helicopter can hover and move in any direction, and the left stick controls height rather than airspeed. In GPS mode, centring the sticks holds the helicopter in place instead of letting it glide on, which takes a little getting used to.
How hard is the switch from fixed-wing to helicopter?
GPS mode removes the hardest part, holding a hover, so you can learn orientation and stick feel first. When that feels natural, move on to forward flight and gentle circuits.
Can I fly it without GPS assistance?
Yes. ATT mode keeps the helicopter level but does not hold its position, so it drifts with the wind and you fly it more directly. Switch modes only at a safe height.
How precise is the GPS hover?
With a good signal, about 1.5 m horizontally and 0.5 m vertically. The M10 module uses GPS, GLONASS and Galileo satellites together for a steadier lock.
What does direct-drive tail mean?
Instead of a tail shaft or belt driven from the main gearbox, a brushless motor sits in the tail and drives the tail rotor directly. There is less to adjust and fewer parts to wear.
Does it arrive ready to fly?
Yes. It comes pre-assembled and adjusted; because of the packaging, you attach the rotor blades before the first flight.
How big is it?
The rotor is 810 mm across, the fuselage is 720 mm long without blades, 235 mm high and 150 mm wide, and it weighs about 1.2 kg ready to fly (869 g without the battery).
Does it have a 3D mode?
Yes. Besides GPS and ATT, the Bell 407 has a 3D manual mode for experienced pilots. It removes the assistance completely, so switch to it only at a safe height.
