WL TOYS AS350 K123

Take to the skies with this 1/24-scale replica inspired by the real-world AS350 Écureuil (“Little Squirrel”) and built by XK. The K123 combines scale looks and serious features — brushless motor, 3D/6G flight modes, 6-channel control — making it suitable for intermediate flyers wanting a compelling RC helicopter experience.

Key Features

• Scale Appearance & Construction: The body mimics the AS350’s proportions, with a rotor diameter of ~244 mm and trimmed fuselage length of ~238 mm. 

• Brushless Power: Main rotor motor is a 1106-11000 kV brushless unit; tail uses an 8502 coreless motor. 

• Flight Modes: 3D & 6G: The transmitter lets you switch between “6G” mode (6-axis gyro, auto-leveling — great for beginners) and “3D” mode (3-axis gyro, responsive flight and aerobatics). 

• 6-Channel Control: Full directional control (throttle, yaw, pitch, roll, plus swashplate/cyclic control) gives you an authentic single-rotor helicopter experience. 

• Compact & Portable Size: Flight weight around ~79.5 g (varies by battery) and overall dimensions designed for outdoor/in-doors in larger spaces. 

• Ready to Fly Options: Available in RTF (ready-to-fly) kits including transmitter, chargers, spare blades. 

Typical Specifications

• Height: ~77 mm 

• Length: ~238 mm 

• Rotor diameter: ~244 mm 

• Flight weight: ~79.5 g (battery incl.) 

• Battery: 3.7 V Li-Po 500 mAh 25C (in many listings) 

• Flight time: Around 5 minutes in many use-cases. 

• Control distance: Approx ~150 m in open conditions. 

Why You’ll Like It

• The scale styling gives it a more serious look than many toy helicopters, making it a good step towards hobby-grade flying.

• The dual mode (6G/3D) means you can start with a more stable, forgiving mode then move on to more advanced flight — good for skill progression.

• With brushless motor and full 6-channel controls, it offers a more satisfying flight feel compared to entry-level fixed-pitch indoor helis.

• The size and weight make it more manageable than large collective-pitch models, so you can fly in moderately sized outdoor spaces.

Things to Consider

• Flight time is short (around 5 minutes) in many listings — you may want spare batteries for longer sessions.

• While the size is compact, it’s still more suited to open outdoor space or large indoor areas — wind or obstacles will affect performance.

• Being a scale body, parts and repair may require more care (some users report that the tail or fuselage can show wear/fracture after crashes). 

• As with all RC helicopters, you need to be mindful of safe flying practices and local regulations (line-of-sight, no-fly zones, etc).
