Default RE: looking for heli

I would recommend you save up and get a kit and radio. The experience you learn from building your own kit will be invaluable when it come time to repair your heli after a crash. Othwise you will be frustrated after a crash since you will not have a clue on how to tear it down, replace parts and rebuild it.

The ONLY RTF I'd personally recommend is the B400....it's a good bargain heli with a decent radio. One thing that is a fact as far as learning is concernded is that bigger is better. ANY micro heli will be very difficult to learn on and crashes will be more frequent. I suggest a 450 size heli or larger.

Good luck!
