Top 20 JCPenney Gyropter RC Helicopter Questions & Answers

Hi make sure you are on correct channel. Usually there are A B C channels. Look on your heli and try each one :)

The drive gear is either not engaged no or has stripped teeth.

there might be hair or fur stuck in your parts check that out

The Jcpenney ones seem to have the most problem with this. Some of the gears might be out together wrong, see if Jcpenney will take it back. Chaio!

Replacement parts can be found on amazon, take a look: Amazon com Gyropter RC parts. I hope this was helpful. cheers

Look online for a manual. Searching "Propel Gyropter Manual" Should bring up at least a pdf manual. Chaio!

Sounds like the battery is not charged fully. Mine did that after I pulled it out of the box. Let it charge for a while longer. Chaio!

did you charge it that might be the problem

Glue it back on.

No.

Hi, Mostly all the micro copters problem are the battery and the the pinion gear that's been worn out.Check both of these part. Battery should at least gives out 350 mili amp. and the gear should touch the propeller shaft gear at the bottom of the copter.Get a lithium ion battery for more power and longetivity.Hope that helps!

It is spinning around because one of the rotors is not spinning at full speed. This happens when you bump a spinning rotor against something. Determine which one it is by observation or logic (i.e, the one that turns clockwise will produce counterclockwise torque, which is to be balanced by the other rotor spinning counter clockwise. So the counter clockwise spinning rotor is slow) Tighten the screw that holds that rotor that is spinning more slowly. Use the screwdriver that came with the spare parts.

Hi,
Check the charger adaptor if it has any output power. If no power comes out replace the adaptor.
Check also the battery terminal, it might already corrode and needs clean up.
If all does not work, the battery in the helicopter is already malfunctioning.

hope that helps you out!

I charged my gyropter ,and the bottom propeller spins slowly and makes a noise.

The light will keep flashing unless you are on the correct channel A B or C and you hit the "Light" button on the front of the unit.

As far as the high speed take offs I suggest identifying which A B or C setting is correct for your copter. In order to do this turn off the RC controller. Set the Selector switch to "A" move the left joystick "throttle" half way up and then turn on the power. Assuming that the copter is still ON it will either fire up or do nothing. If it does nothing try the same sequence with the selector switch set to "B" and try again. If nothing try "C".

Now, as far as the rapid accelleration, I read one online comment that indicated that there is some type of "programming" sequence that the unit learns by pushing the left joystick throttle all the way forward and then back to zero when you start to fly it. So after the first "blast off" set the copter back down or even hold it in you hand by grasping the the landing runners and move the throttle forward until the rotor spin up and it lifts off. In your hand it is easier to keep it from going up too quickly.

Good luck!

Recharge IT!
On a full charge the normal flying time is 6 to 10 minutes.

doubld blade rotor there is no need for a rear/tail rotor, on the remote are 2 buttons they will control Left/Right spin , adjust so that it does not spin around
