that looks pretty cool... I got a cheap heli a while back on clearence fromm harbor freight but the learning curve to get it to actually fly has kept me from trying much.

Cool, Tana, I have been wanting to get a heli for a while, but I just haven't gotten around to it, I haven't even gotten a chance to go out to the field in a month or two. I think my planes have an inch or so of dust on them.

Is there anything you don't like about it?

Not really or maybe it's light so you have to fly in a no wind situation.

I have flown before but I'm no expert. This thing flies very easy.

I was kinda bummed, before I moved I was thinning out and sold my Corona and my

Draganflyer III This kind of renewed interest in flying heli.

I'm ready!! Winter is just around the corner and the CX2 is to big to fly in my house. The MCX looks perfect!

I've got a pair (Friend and I) of Walkera 4#3B Heli's en-route from Hong Kong!

4channel, 2.4GHz radio, I'll be practicing my ass off on the Heli sims before I put serious time into the actual heli (don't cost nuttin to crash on the sim!).

12" rotor span and full collective... All you need is a CCPM 72Mhz 6-ch TX, which that site sells for about $35, so all together with spare battery and shipping oughta be about $140 :-o
