Which electric heli?

My father might buy me an electric helicopter this summer and I have no idea what to buy. I had realflight simulator for almost 4 months now and I love playing it.

I am interested in buying something that can fly good indoors. What would be the best to start with?

Thank you

has the best mods everything you will need
it comes with the piccoboard plus like the eco
i started with the Fun when you get to hover your going to want to go brushless motor & esc

and some Li-poly's for batteries

remember you will need a special pinion for the Astro motor and a Y cable to run the brushless setup on the piccoboard
if your just starting out it is a cheap way to get to hover
then you want to upgrade
and when you go up in size flying gets easier



keep it in the air
