Status: offline 		A friend of mine wants a good micro office flyer, and was less that impressed with the Ecoman Fairy (Fry's) due to lack of control. I pointed him to the Walkera 5#6 and 5G6 models but he isn't sure he wants to invest $100 in his new "toy". Are there any similar helis of other brands that have 3 or 4 channel control in the sub 100g range that don't cost as much?

Thanks,
M

Your friend might want to try the Micro Masquito 3 Cannel heli from Radio Shack for around $50 give or take $10 . Not the Alany ones that are on most web stores for a lot less because they are JUST PLAIN CHEAP . The Radio Shack Heli is advertised as an office flier in some of the online videos. A friend owns one and seams to enjoy it.
