One thing Id recommed you get is a decent simulator (such as realfight or reflex) because It will save you money in the long term. Model helis are amazing squrily things to learn to fly and although Im sure you'll learn it fast through your car experience, they can be incredibly unforgiving machines and if you make a mistake with a heli they dont self correct and you wont get much time to put it right.
Good luck, Im sure you'll be as addicted as the rest of us shortly ... Azzy |
Thanks for the tip dood, i apreciate it, the one reason why i picked the one i was showing was because its 200$ and its ready to fly, plus very cheap to fix, its is really not meant to be pro, its just a beginner, exactly what i want. Until i learn to hover and land and other important things im thinking the one that i picked would be perfect, AFTER im done i can go into the one you suggested, however i do have another delema, i'm looking to buy stuff in Canada. Great hobbies is pretty good with their kit's.
I guess i now need to start researching Poly batteries and chargers to learn about them, i do hope to take this to a new level and learn a-lot with heli's.
I also appreciate the help ill get from this place
