Overview

This is a new experience aircraft, a novelty toy, great fun to fly and easy to control. Released in 2012, the 6043 LadyBug is a quadrotor aircraft, or quadcopter. It has four arms, each with a motor and rotor.

Flying the 6043 LadyBug is a different experience from flying a helicopter though the flying skills required are similar.

Some call it a UFO as it looks a bit like, and appears to fly like, a flying saucer.

The 6043 LadyBug is small, you can hold it in your hand.

It has:

• Four arms, each with a motor and rotor.
• 4 movement channels - throttle, rudder, aileron and elevator. The addition of the aileron allows the 6043 LadyBug to move left and right.
• It is controlled by a 2.4GHz radio control transmitter. This is the standard for larger serious radio controlled helicopters and is becoming more prevalent in the radio controlled 'toy' environment as there is less likelyhood of conflict with other radio devices.
• An LCD screen display on the transmitter that shows flight information such as trim settings, transmitter battery level and throttle position.
• Two speed modes, high speed and low speed.

It has a Gyro which makes the 6043 LadyBug easier to fly and maneouver. A Gyro stabilises the aircraft reducing the incidence of crashing and the need for replacing parts.

The 6043 LadyBug is very light, stable and quiet. It is quite sturdy.

The 6043 LadyBug is ready to run, there is no assembly required. All you need to do is charge the LadyBug battery, add transmitter batteries and you are good to go.

Full flight up/down, turn right/left turn, move left/right and forward/backward movement, hover and 3D tumbling action.

Suitable for indoor flights, and outdoors in low wind conditions.
