Default RE: What should be my next heli?

Thanks for backing up my post.

People look at these small micro helis like they are toys. Then they get one and realize a tad too late that these little micros are power houses that can get away from you in the blink of an eye.

Learning to fly one in a small living room is definitely possible. But, like you attested to...will cause you to spend a little money doing so. Thats why I suggest anyone learning to fly a CP heli try to start out by flying outside with plenty of room.

Sometimes when people are first learning...the heli gets away from them. When you have a large enough space you can simply flip your Throttle Hold switch and let it float down to the ground, almost leaf like.

Everyone that flies ANY type of heli needs to get very well aquainted with their transmitters Throttle Hold switch. Being able to flip that one switch can be the difference of a 25 dollar crash and 200 dollar crash (heli size depending of course)!
