When does a guy know when it's time to move on? I have only had a few heli's and they have all been little electric pos's except for the blade cx2. I can do anything that the cx2 will allow now. I wanted to get a CP but the more I read the more I think a 450 would be a better way to go. I have read a bunch on the Trex 450 and it seems like a decent chopper for the money. So how do I know if I am ready for it? I know it's a loaded question but hey...I gotta ask. I have a G3.5 sim and have played around with several choppers. I know they handle much different in real life but it seems to be quite easy. I tried the sim when I first got it and could not fly anything with a rotor...lol. Now I can fly decent ( I think) but still need the real life hands on I think. Any advise on a perticular model and gear would be handy. I am not looking for 3d just plain and simple (but not a cheap kit either). It seems like there are 10 of each and the differences are a blur to me....dang cx2...too easy. Kevin
