Charge the battery

To install and charge your helicopter battery, first open the battery compartment, connect the battery securely, and ensure it's properly fixed. When the charger is plugged in but not connected to the battery, the red light will be on. During charging, the indicator light will flash, and once fully charged, the light will remain steady. After charging, unplug the charger and carefully remove the battery. For optimal performance, make sure the battery is fully charged before each flight.

What are the main differences between the F11 and F11-S?

F11-S

yuxiang-f11-s.png__PID:24337ec6-37d3-404e-9733-a301ac612cc6
  • Designed for beginners: The F11-S is equipped with GPS functionality, making it ideal for beginners. The GPS helps with flight stability, reduces difficulty, and prevents loss of control, ensuring safer and more stable flights.
  • GPS Features: The F11-S GPS module also integrates with the compass module, visual flight module, and barometer altitude hold module, which further enhance flight stability.
  • Flight Modes: F11-S supports a Stable Mode, allowing beginners to easily control the flight. It also includes safety flight features such as one-key return, low battery smart return, loss of control return, and one-key landing.
  • Additionally, it supports geofence, one-key 8-shaped flight, one-key circle flight, and other features that enhance flight safety and ease of use.

F11

yuxiang-f11.jpg__PID:8b24337e-c637-43d0-8e17-33a301ac612c
  • Designed for advanced pilots and aerobatic enthusiasts: The F11 does not have GPS functionality and is intended for users with some flying experience who want to perform aerobatic maneuvers (such as inverted flight) and more advanced flying techniques.
  • When the helicopter is flying in GPS mode and the altitude is above 10 meters, press the MODE button to enter the reverse preparation state. In this state, the helicopter will reverse its flight direction based on the joystick input. Here's how it works:Pushing the joystick up will cause the helicopter to fly downward.Pushing the joystick forward will make the helicopter fly backward.
  • To return to normal flight, simply press the MODE button again and push the joystick in the desired direction. The helicopter will flip back to its original orientation and resume regular flight.

frequently asked questions

The Apache F11-S has a flight time of approximately 10-15 minutes, depending on the flight mode and wind conditions.

You can buy the extra battery to replace. It is recommended to use it carefully and charge it according to the instructions to prolong battery life.

To enhance wind resistance, you can adjust the helicopter’s flight parameters, such as reducing the sensitivity of controls (Expo setting), and ensure you fly in lower wind conditions for more stability.

If the helicopter becomes unstable, try recalibrating the gyroscope, adjusting the Expo setting on the controller, or ensuring the blades and rotor are properly aligned.

The Apache F11-S offers several flight modes, including normal mode for stable flight and 3D mode for advanced maneuvers like flips and rolls and GPS

Yes, the Apache F11-S is capable of performing 3D maneuvers such as flips, rolls, and inverted flying, but this requires switching to 3D mode and some practice.

The range of the Apache F11-S’s remote control is approximately 100-150 meters, depending on environmental factors such as interference or obstacles.

If the helicopter crashes, check for damaged blades, gears, or motors. Replacement parts are available for many components, so you can replace or repair damaged sections with new parts.

As for cameras, the Apache F11-S does not come with a built-in camera origianlly. It is primarily designed for flying performance and realistic military-style looks. I recommend you buy the extra camera from Stirlingkit directly

If you like Air Wolf, I recommend you choose the Flywing FW450L.

yes. find more details from Stirlingkit

Nope. this Apache F11-S is updated on the basis of the standard version of Yuxiang Apache F11. it has a GPS, which makes it more friendly for the beginners. Even you have never play such rc helicopter before, you can fly this Apache just like a professional pilots.

Yes. $600 bucks is a big investment. But $600 bucks is cheap for all the technology you’re getting. $600 may be reasonable but it is certainly not cheap, they are two different terms that too often confused with each other. Reasonable compares it to other products in the same class, but cheap is a personal thing, what may be cheap to one may be expensive to someone else.

This Yuxiang Apache F11-S can fly about 11-15 minutes before it landed itself due to low battery.

This Yuxiang Apache F11-S can fly about 11-15 minutes before it landed itself due to low battery. Distance typically is good these days. You will lose site before signal.

Normally this is a toy helicopter for adult. so It doesn't need specific license. But I recommend you check the local rules in particuly. Most of Stirlingkit customers basically buy them and play with them in their own backyards. Generally, RC drones are defined as flying beyond visual range, and basically only those that are greater than 3-500 meters are defined as drones, but you don't fly that high, and no one will interfere with you if you play with them by themselves for personal usage.some of our customers told us they have FAA Part 107 and it works. no Laanc approval Class G airspace is required. you do not need a part 107 to fly outside a FRIAA site. You only need RID. You only need a part 107 if flying in restricted airspace and applying for LAANC approval. Or if you are flying for compensation. A quick email too FAA Help will clarify this for you.

This Yuxiang Apache F11-S can fly about 11-15 minutes before it landed itself due to low battery. Distance typically is good these days. You will lose site before signal.

If you buy the Yuxiang Apache F11-S helicopter model from Stirlingkit, you can get 1 free battery and 1 free transmitter remote control.  

If you're a beginner, the F11-S is the best option for you. It comes with GPS functionality, making it stable and easy to control, perfect for learning to fly. With features like one-key return, low battery return, and other safety modes, it ensures a smooth and secure flying experience. However, if you're an experienced pilot or looking to do aerobatic maneuvers, the F11 is a better choice. It doesn't have GPS stabilization, so you'll need to rely on your skills, but it offers more flexibility and control for advanced flying techniques, such as inverted flight. To use the inverted flight mode on the F11, simply press the MODE button when the altitude is above 10 meters and the GPS signal is strong. The helicopter will flip into inverted flight, and you can control it just like performing 3D aerobatics. Press the MODE button again to return to normal flight. In short, the F11-S is perfect for beginners, while the F11 is ideal for those who want to perform advanced stunts like inverted flying.

BACKGROUND

Why Apache AH64 Helicopter is Famous?

The Apache helicopter is widely regarded as the most powerful gunship in the world, and it’s easy to see why. Each unit costs approximately $1.5 billion—equivalent to the cost of three F-35 jets. Its advanced weaponry makes it a fearsome presence on the battlefield. Equipped with a 30mm M230 chain gun mounted on its lower fuselage, the Apache carries 1,200 rounds of ammunition. The gun is connected to the pilot’s helmet, allowing it to fire accurately at whatever the pilot is looking at.In addition to its cannon, the Apache is armed with 16 Hellfire missiles, each capable of hitting targets up to 8 kilometers away with devastating accuracy. These missiles are designed to destroy enemy armor, vehicles, buildings, and personnel with precision. The helicopter is also equipped with 76 Hydra 70 rockets, providing powerful fire support against lighter targets and enemy forces.The Apache's offensive capabilities are matched by its durability. Its fuselage is bullet-resistant, designed to withstand 7.62mm and 12.7mm heavy machine gun rounds, and it’s capable of surviving a 20g crash. Even if the fuel tank is hit, it is self-sealing to prevent fire hazards.During the Gulf War, the Apache earned its legendary reputation. Remarkably, only one Apache was lost in combat, while it destroyed over 3,700 Iraqi tanks and vehicles—an astounding 1 to 3,700 kill ratio. This performance solidified the Apache’s status as the most reliable and lethal helicopter gunship in military history.
