What about STORM brand?
Storm launched the first 450 class helicopter prototype 2 years ago, the famous Storm 450 has been hot selling in helipal.com. The company that build Storm 450 helicopter is very positive and aggressive, they make it better and better over these years and the Storm 450 got more refine. You may not heard about Storm brand before, but we in Asia and Hong Kong has been playing the Storm 450 for a long time, the reason is simple - it got the Quality and Performance, it got stable spare parts supply, a very good pricing, all players who tried the Storm 450 and just loved it, making the Storm 450 so popular in our country. This time, Storm made a platform based on the Championship Winning 450 helicopter, which suits both Learners and Experts, they call it the Storm 430 (although it is truly a 450 class size)
Aggressive 3D action available
It offers collective pitch control that will let helicopter pilots to fly in almost any direction. Transitioning from forward flight to hover with smooth, solid control is a cinch and negative pitch is a breeze for aerobatics like loops and rolls. Don't ms-understand that the stock plastic parts can't play 3D, in fact, this Storm 430 can fly 3D out of box!
100% Pre-Assembled
It's 100% assembled, you can have it flying in just a few minutes out of the box.
Just a quick charge of the battery and you are ready for lift off!
Best Center of Gravity
STORM 430 is 100% same with the champion winning 450 helicopter, same servo mount and body frame. It has the best geometry and weight balance, great benefit for Beginners and Experts
The Best Flight Control System
Using Bell and Hiller two systems mixing control. Through simple structure of Bell control system, power-saving of Hiller system and CCPM control, can simultaneously control 3 servos for AILE, EVLE, PIT 3 actions. This CCPM control system is great for 3D flying control and extending life cycle of servos.
High Performance Power System
This helicopter is combined with STORM 3800KV high performance brushless motor and 30A STORM Speed Controller for great power and efficiency. The brushless motor is equipped with out-runner cooling system. It solves the over-heat problem of many brushless motor on the market. Better cooling makes longer flight time and more aggressive 3D flight available. Also included in this ready-to-fly kit is a 11.1v
Lithium battery with high capacity (2200mAh) and high output 20C discharge rate.
STORM High Speed Micro Servo - MS-90G
STORM 430 Semi-Metal Edition is equipped with four STORM FORCE MS-90G High Torque Servos. Able to do a great job for cyclic controls and rudder stability.
High Precision Head Lock Gyro
STORM ROCK-5 Head Lock Gyro + Storm MS-90G for tail pitch control, easy to setup and great respond, they can stabilize the helicopter dramatically. Helicopter heading may changed by side-wind and other meteorological changes, and varieties of helicopter attitude changes are automatically cancelled, thanks to the Head Lock Gyro, the tail rudder operation becomes easy, making it easier to hover or 3D actions. It is perfect for both beginners and experts.
Smooth Pitch Travel
Adopting Ball Joint Linkage and Ball Bearing Tail Pitch pivot point, the tail pitch movement is silky smooth, you got precise amount of tail wind from the tail rotor by the stock rudder servo or high-end rudder servos.
High Strength Ball Links and Stainless Steel Linkage Balls
Using new high strength ball links and stainless steel linkage balls on the whole unit, feature wear resistance, anti-oxidization.
STORM 2.4GHz Radio System
This helicopter is equipped with the STORM 2.4GHz Programmable Radio System, you can adjust all kinds of common parameters for a RC Helicopter using a PC computer. Simply connect the Transmitter to the computer using the USB cable provided, and launch the setup program that is included, then you will be able to set the Common settings. This radio system also has "Lock On" features, it locks the same frequency ensuring much improved reliability and peace of mind when flying, you do not need to bind every time you turn on the Heli. Also, 2.4GHz is the standard of new generation radio system
because it has a lot of advantages.

Anti-Interference & Higher Reliability
Operating at 2.4 GHz puts the radio control out of the frequency range of any 'noise' generated by the other electronic components on your helicopter - such as the brushless motor, Electronic speed controller, Gyro,
Servos and any metal to metal noise - eliminating interference and glitching
that can affect traditional frequency system.
Longer Transmission Distance & Lower Power Consumption
SSST (STORM SPREAD SPECTRUM TECHNOLOGY) offers longer transmission
distance and minimizes power consumption.
Faster Response Time
2.4 Gigahertz systems offers quicker, more responsive control, when compared to a standard frequency system.
No Frequency Control Required
A main characteristic of 2.4 Gigahertz equipment from a RC model club’s point of view is that no frequency control is needed. Eliminating the need to check everyone else's channel numbers, prior to flying. No more worries about turning up at a club with the wrong crystal in your Tx.
STORM 430 Decal Plastic Canopy
Good looking and high quality, durable Plastic Canopy for beginners.
High Capacity Battery
Hyper-Lithium 11.1V 2200mAh 20C High Power Li-Po Battery provides over 30A peak current for the 3800KV brushless motor that
allows aggressive 3D flight.
