Happy Cow 777-268 Infrared 3CH IR UFO Flying Ball

Posted on by | 7 Replies

Here comes the new helicopter…no! It’s the IR UFO Flying Ball! Presented by the Happy Cow Brand, which is famous of it’s production of smartphone controlled RC helicopters, as well as it’s high quality. What’s new about this flying ball? Let’s have a look closer.

Helicopter turns into a ball-shaped object, would that affect smooth flying? Absolutely no, it can still hover well and you can turn control it like usual mini helicopters. As it is round, you won’t have to worry about crashing, it can fly near the wall without crashing the propellers so it never crash. It can hover, it can roll on the ground too, as the round frame protects the propeller from contacting obstacles!

The flying ball would be great for beginners, they can practice flying with this extra safe “helicopter”. Seeing it flies in the air is also a kind of entertainment, as it looks interesting. You are controlling a ball!

3 selectable bands, this allows maximum 3 helicopters flying in the same area. You can leave the ball hovering in the air with your hands free from the transmitter! This infra-red transmitter can act as the charger for the heli, it needs 6 AA batteries to function. (Batteries are not included in the package)

How to charge it? Easy! Just plug it to the transmitter, switch the transmitter on, that’s it! If you don’t want to draw power from the dry battery pack, you can also charge by the USB cable included, so that you can charge by a Laptop or PC.

    I bought one at costco recently, used it about half a dozen times. Power only lasts 5 mins at a time (not 15 as said by salesman) and now it’s not working at all. It doesn’t seem to want to hold a charge from my PC, or there’s a radio problem between handset and ball as blades move briefly but then stop. Who do I send it back to? Tony

      Did you switch off the ball before charge?

  • Matt

    Ours worked great (usually between 5 and 10 minutes of flying time), but just today the bottom propeller stopped spinning. Is there any way to get this working again?

    • Arthur Yeung

      It may due to the motor gear of bottom propeller loss connection, you can check it and it can easy to be repair.

      If you found it the motor stop rotate, it probably the motor problem and it is more difficult to replace.

      hope you can fix it well!

    I bought a similar device called a Robotic UFO MODEL 805A during a recent visit to China. The instruction (inside a red cage) manual in the box is for a 805B model which is different and now I cant seem to figure out how to charge it!!!! There two connectors from the UFO inside the ball and only one place to insert it in the USB charger provided!!! Can anyone help??!!
