If i were in your boat i would just hop on the RTR blade 450. FP helies are going to waist your time. Yeah, your gonna get to know how to go forward backwards... ect but. You will soon find out right when you get into CP, everything is much different. All of the controls are much more touchy. Just save your money and buy the RTR blade 450 with the DX6i it will save you money in the long run.
