With the change of the technology, it is advisable to flow with the current. One should not miss all the fun that the other people are having with the latest rc helicopter while he is still hanging out with his old model. Throwing away your helicopter just because it is old is not also advisable because it will be like throwing away the money that you had used to purchase the helicopter down the drain. Therefore what one should do is to look for an appropriate means by which they can do away with it without losing anything at all.
The best way is by selling it out to the person who wants a remote control helicopter yet does not have enough money. This will only work if you give out an offer that most people will not be able to refuse. The offer might not necessarily be that you reduce the price of the helicopter but it can also include agreeing to be paid in small installments. There is never a fixed amount that one has to charge but in order to get a potential buyer to purchase your old helicopter then the price naturally has to be a low price per installment.
Other than that one can decide to sell the old remote control helicopter to its manufacturers who in process will still recycle the helicopter to become a new advanced product. This way one the old RC helicopter will be put into good use instead of it being thrown. If it hard to get in touch with the manufacturers is hard then one should look for the people who are willing to buy the second hand goods. In most cases this people have a direct link with the producers and once they purchase it form you they will take it there. Therefore either way you will be paid almost three quarter of the amount that you purchased it and that will be better than throwing it away.
Some of the shops accept to take back old remote control helicopter with a small fee and give you a new one of your choice. Though this does not apply to all the shops and at times those who provide this service insist that they will only take it back if the helicopter was purchased from there shop. This is why one should get to know all the offers that are available for the RC helicopter that they want to buy before they buy it.
In situations where one has tried all the above ways and was unable to get a potential buyer, then they should try the last option and that is selling it to the group of people who purchase remote control helicopter for its internal parts. This is because most of this people are normally desperate for these parts and no matter how old the helicopter is they still pay for it. However this should be the final resolution because most of this people buy the helicopters at a throw away price and so one might not get a lot of money out of them. After selling the old helicopter, one will only look for a little money to add on it and buy the one that they want.
