Thanks for the reply's. I am still undecided though. I do like the heli's, always facinated by them even as a kid. My first computer games were heli sims. But in reality I don't have the cash to get a glow powered heli, or a large electric one. I do have enough to spring for a Corona 120 which I understand can be flown outdoors. On the other hand I am equally as facinated with warplanes. I know I will not buy a warplane right off and need to go through a few "trainer" planes first. So this leaves me still up in the air so to speak about which road to take. [] I suppose I will decide when I walk into the hobby shop and see first hand. BTW can't you fly planes in the winter?
