Default RE: Eco 8

Nice helicopter for it's time, but the design is really outdated by now. They fly well, but parts are not easy to obtain (especially locally) and it's got a lot of problems stock that you need to either mod out or purchase upgrades for, making it actually quite an expensive helicopter in the long run.

You're better off buying something newer, it may cost you a bit more, but you'll get a lot more performance with a lot less hassle in the long run. Try a Century Swift or just a plain ol' T-rex 450 which actually flies better than the larger eco-8.


I loved my eco-8 when I had it, but I don't think i'd recommend it to anyone now with so many better options available.
