I don't mind making a few highly recommended upgrades as long as the total package of upgrades can be had for $100 or less.

Any reason in particular to pick the Esky Lama V4 over the Esky Co-Comanche?

I've been flying helicopters for about three years and have gone through alot of them, currently have the HBK2, Belt CP and a Logo 10.

However, I've had coaxial heliicopters in the past and as I progressed, sold them and moved on. Here's were I'm going with this, I MISS the little rascals, so I ordered a Lama V4 yesterday, for the fun indoor flying.

Got mine from Bphobbies.com for $124 and shipping: here's the site" They are reliable, been doing business with them for a couple years now.

You're only a few clicks away from ordering one, do it tonight and enjoy,

Dave / Choppersrule

Status: offline 		I am going to get either a v4 or comanche from www.hobby-lobby.com. Ill prolly get all the aluminum from the sight for it, and need some opinions on wat one to get. The comanche looks cool, but i dont really know if I like the whole wheels for landing gear thing

Status: offline 		You can't go wrong with a Esky V4. They really are great helicopters, and talk about bang for the buck!! However I have also owned two Hirobo XRB Lamas and they are in my opinion the "BEST" Co-Axial RTF. They quality and electronics are stellar.....but so is the price!! For price and performance go with an Esky.
