RE: Radio Shack Now Has Bladerunner Heli, $49!
i'm kinda surprised i havent heard anything about this. i check the BladeRunner forum almost every day and there wasnt a single word about it. very cool though. if its anything like its larger sibling, it'll always need a bit of tweaking, even right out of the box, and usually after almost every flight. it can be a pain sometimes, but when its set up right, they can fly pretty well.
since the RS version is only 2 channel, you could adjust the CG to get it flying forward as fast as possible before the rotors clashed, but thats still not very fast (they're just not meant to go any faster than a slow walk, by design). what i cant wait to get is the Micro Mosquito that'll be coming out. 6" rotors!
thanks for the heads up on the heli, i'll pick one up as soon as i can find one.
