Thanks guys. Before I posted this I bought a cheap 2 channel electric heli that I already broke in a week. It had no control but it was fun. I almost got the hang of it too. Well the bug bit and now I want a better one. I don't need the best but would like a decent one. And money is deffinately an issue. Well after much searching on ebay I think I am going to get a Walkera 36. I origanally wanted a Dragonfly 22E but I read too many bad reviews. I guess they are very fragile and poor quality. I know the 36 is the same company but it looks like a pretty decent machine to me. I just want something I can play with and see were it goes from there. Also I want a 6 channel just because I want it all and don't want to wait to upgrade. I know, I'm impatient. I just can't see buying a 4 channel and then wnating more in a few weeks. Thanks for the motor lesson. I knew the brushes were part of the internal parts I just didn't know how the brushless ones worked or what the advantages were.
