Status: offline 		I've been looking into getting a nice electric heli that I can take anywhere. I stumbled across the Eagle 50 (linked below). Just wondering if this is any good, it has a tailmotor which i don't like, but I think i could deal with it for the price.

Thanks,
Austin

Not even close. Eagle 50 =Walkera 22E= Venom Night Ranger 3D. For $10 less for the 22E youalso get an extra set of blades. For $100 more on the Venom you get a cool green color.

Status: offline 		Thanks for your replies, but it doesn't matter now. Someone on ebay accepted my extremely low offer (I didn't think they would) on an axe cp, I feel better buying a reputable brand anyways and I can get the parts from tower hobbies which is my favorite on line dealer.

Thanks,
Austin

Status: offline 		Hey, I'm getting a list together of what parts I need to order for the heli (parts that will most likely break) any suggestions on parts that usually break in a crash, I remember reading about bp hobbies tail motors (linked below) that fit the blade cp, does anybody know if they will work for the axe.

I appreciate the help, Thanks
Austin

Status: offline 		Lets see....Flybar, main shafts, feathering shafts (lots), blades, tail blade (no idea if the ones you mentioned work...I have always stuck with stock), landing struts...if you are getting the plastic head...then blade grips, flybar links, center hub, see saw, stabilizer control hub, tail motor mount... those are the things I have been through on my Axe when I first got it and was learning to fly it...

Status: offline 		Thanks, I'll order your listed parts. Hey, how often do your tail motors burn out, obviously you can't count a crash. I just mean how often are you just flying and they die on you.

Thanks again,
Austin
