Kopters are small, yellow Kremling enemies in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and Donkey Kong Land III. They carry a green helicopter blade in each hand and wear a green crash helmet. A Kopter appears in Donkey Kong Barrel Blast, instead wearing a black pilot cap with a propeller on top, beige pants, and a pair of goggles; its eye pupils are also red.
History
Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!
In Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!, Kopters appear only in three levels of Razor Ridge: Buzzer Barrage, Kong-Fused Cliffs, and Pot Hole Panic. With their helicopter blades, Kopters propel themselves into the air. Kopters fly in various directions, usually up and down in a vertical path or circling around a platform, or even back and forth diagonally in a later part of Kong-Fused Cliffs. If a Kong is hit by Kopter's blades, they take damage, but Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong can harmlessly bounce on a Kopter's helmet for a boost in height. In Dixie Kong's Photo Album, a Kopter is categorized as part of the Kremling Kreeps.
Kopters were initially programmed to have a standing sprite, vaguely reminiscent of Kutlasses from Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest, and a defeated sprite.
Donkey Kong Land III
In Donkey Kong Land III, Kopters appear in six levels: Footloose Falls, Rockface Chase, Clifftop Critters, Rickety Rapids, Stalagmite Frights, and Ghoulish Grotto. Unlike before, a Kopters can now be defeated from being jumped on; however, Kopters can defeat themselves by landing on the ground, though they respawn when the Kongs are not on the same screen as them.
Donkey Kong Barrel Blast
In Donkey Kong Barrel Blast, Kopter is an unlockable playable character and the rival of Wrinkly Kong. The player can unlock him by completing the Topaz Cup as a Kremling. Kopter has an average boost and speed rating and a high agility rating.
