It is funny what you said about never going back to little electrics again. I started like you with trex 450 and it was a hand full to fly. I finaly broke down and got a raptor 30 at the begining of last season. Then a Raptor 50 at the end. I now I fly it mainly but my buddy sold me my old trex for a practicaly nothing. I put it together and spun it up... It was so easy to fly now! It was crazy how much I could do with the little guy that I never dreamed of doing with it when I first had it. It also wasn't my baby anymore so I was not so nervous flying it. So I guess the moral is go big then go small.
