RE: Heli vs Airplane Beginners Forums
I guess what I'm getting at is probably the public perception of what can and can't be done. I personally had enough trouble handling a co-axial heli in my house, never mind a plane.
Outdoors is the same sort of thing. I can practice hovering my 300 or 450 size heli in the backyard but a plane is something else.
I also agree that the explosion of affordable electric helis have had a great impact on the hobby.
