Default RE: Which Heli?

do you mean falcon 40? or is there a falcon 400 ou there that i am not aware of?


i own three helicopters that are essentially the SAME helicopter (actually there are 9! different brands of the "same" helicopter..but rebadged)

VENOM'S "NIGHT RANGER II"

EF'S "SABER"

and EXCEED'S "FALCON 40"

if you have the money, get the the HB-KING 2, OR the BELT!

with all honesty the falcon 40 is crap. did it help me to fly? yes. problem is that it is VERY TWITCHY, parts are cheap (but there are a ton of mods out there for it) luckily replacement parts for it are cheap too (thats why i have "3" helis now..so many spares, its crazy) and the 4in1's go up in smoke with little effort.

falcon 40 is like the next step up for a child who has mastered a "pico Z" helicopter, and the parents want to get something better, but not break the bank..while knowing the child will lose interest. it is a FUN heli..just because we try to mod it to do things like the bigger ones operate. save the money and get a HB-K2 or the BELT. saves a lot of money in the long run
