Status: offline 		If you are able to hover and don’t have the odd panic moment, then I would say get the 22A. If however you are like me and things get a little "out of control" at times then get the 22D.

The 22D is very robust. It will take some beating into the ground. The radio gear is not too bad, but better in the 22A. I had a JR transmitter and receiver, so I purchased a speed controller and gyro and fitted all my own radio gear.

I hope this helps, if you need any more info just ask

Status: offline 		any thing you fly may or may not be ready right out of the box. A little tweaking and patience and they all fly pretty darn good. I have a dragonfly and a honey bee. HB is more stable and i looped it today going for invert tomorrow. dragonfly is real good for bashing around. It takes a lot of abuse and is easy to fix. Just go over everything real good b 4 flying it and try holding it by tail boom while setting up cyclic trims before first flight. then set on ground and throttle up to just below lift off to set tail rotor mixing. when you get them set right they both fly great HB is more reponsive but damages a bit easier especially the blades. If you go honey bee get some plastic blades to learn with and not fixed pitch blades as they will lower head speed to much. I have some semi symetrical blades from kyosho that i put on mine when i broke the woodies that came with it. They are semi symetrical and give little neg lift but more flight duration. Hell just buy both of em.
