Been out of RC for a while and looking to get back in. I have a Futaba 7c 72mhz radio that I gather isn't really in use anymore. Does anyone still fly with 72mhz?

First micro heli

Got a Bladerunner Stormwolf Heli for Christmas. This is probably a 40-50 dollar chopper, but seems to be fun. The battery only lasts about 5 minutes.

Does anyone know anything about this heli?...

Firestorm reverse issue

Was taking the e firestorm for a spin tonight and found it was reluctant to go into reverse much of the time. If I turned off the tx and turned it back on, the car would (uncommanded) slowly go into...

RE: That was fun!

Thanks for the tip. I feel confident with this setup though because the prop doesnt even turn with me close by. I just keep throttle at zero...esc would prevent spinning either way. Once Im ready to...

That was fun!

I've dabbled with RC since 2004, but haven't really taken off with it before. Mainly because of the cost involved and being scared of crashing. But, I've been pushing it more lately to get confidence...

I've been thrilled with my Sig EP-42 brushless. I always like to have another plane waiting in the wings to ease the grief if I auger one in. So, this will wait in the queue for the EP-42 to eat...
