2.4GHz Multi-Mode Transmitter
Connected. That is how the DR-1 feels thanks to the clarity and control of the Traxxas 2.4GHz Multi-Mode Transmitter. The dual-stick transmitter includes a full complement of tuning features and offers the unbeatable convenience of "no channels, no crystals" 2.4GHz technology—but that's just the beginning. Each time the transmitter and DR-1 are powered on, the transmitter automatically binds to the helicopter. Switching between Normal and Expert mode is as easy pressing the right control stick. A bright LED light provides information on the fly, indicating binding status and Normal or Expert mode. Trim adjustments are quick and easy thanks to the LCD screen and digital trim adjustment buttons.

Anodized Aluminum Frame, Boom, and Skids
DR-1 is built Traxxas Tough with rugged aluminum parts that can withstand not-so-perfect landings as they enhance DR-1's looks with vivid blue and red anodized finishes. DR-1 matches high strength with high style for exciting flights and back-in-action durability.

High Capacity LiPo Battery and USB-Powered LiPo Charger
To maximize flight time and fun, the DR-1 includes a high-capacity Power Cell LiPo battery pack. Traxxas Power Cell batteries offer consistent power flight after flight, with low weight for high-performance flying. Battery installation is simple; just slide the battery into the the main frame and plug it in for instant airborne excitement. Between flights, recharging the battery is fast and easy with the included USB charger. Plug the charger into a powered USB port, connect the battery to the charger, and you're on the way to the next take-off. An LED keep you informed of the battery's charge status for no-guess charging.

Easy to Fly with Gyro Stabilization
DR-1's sophisticated stabilization system automatically re-centers the rudder control each time you power-on or land, and features a piezoelectric gyro for exceptional hovering capability and easy flight control. If you out-fly your skill level, just release the sticks to return DR-1 to level flight. There's no easier way to get airborne with a high-quality heli than the Traxxas DR-1.

Fun little copter handles well very fast. The fly bar is little on the fragile side but inexpensive if broken. Let battery cool down after flight before charging.
