Default RE: Wheeeeeeee.......... Blade CP!

Arrow,

I concur with Jeremy, no free lunches. If the heli you're looking at is a year or so old, it's hard telling what parts may be worn and need replacing. You know yourself, as we all do, it's an expensive hobby. Maybe take sometime to do a little more researching and investigation on what type of heli will be your next venture. Don't jump the gun, like I do (impulse buying)!

I've made several bad decisions in the last 3 years and paid for it. (Raptor G2 and Falcon 3d) It's all in the learning thing. Get the best of the best, you're in for it for the long term, I know that. Just bite the bullet for the extra 100 bucks or so.

Always a hard decision, when moving up. So many helis out there. Check availability on parts too.

BTW... Tell Jacki, ole Chopper said HI!

Later guy,
Dave

Arrow -

just to consider, I was pricing out a TREX 600 for $275... that needed all electronics.

It turned out not to be that great of a deal once I priced out the needed parts. It was about the same price as buying a brand new 600 CF kit.

There are no free lunches.

However, the 50 size helis are a lot of fun!
