Hi DebianDog,

Thanks for posting this - this makes me feel very good [8D]

I really want the Corona. I hope somebody can help me out choosing stuff.

Btw, if you buy a Corona without the moror and those servos, - do they have pre-drilled places in the fuselage of the heli so you know where to put them ? and
it kind of goes together without too much thinking on the builder's part ? .... I'm totally new to modelling.....

anyway thanks.

I would stay with the stock stuff till you wreak it a few times. A guy in our club has a brushless Corona, it is about the most durable helicopter I have EVER seen! He will smash the "crud" out of it, unfold the blades and straighten the boom. He is back flying!

I am sure you saw this set up but here you go anyway:

Since you are totally new to modeling, for your own sanity's sake go to the LMH site and just buy the complete Corrona package. You'll be miles ahead by having all that you need then just...

wait for it....

Read and follow the instruction booklets and you WILL have a GREAT flying training helicopter.

Oh, me, I've been flying LMH 110s 110+s and Coronas since 1995

Tom
