RE: Which Heli is right for me?
when you say you can fly in side where?, if you have a 16x16 floor space to learn with, then maybe a eccp type but the cheap way would be a fix pitch walkera 4 or the like, as the bug bit's your end up spending much more than you will know so your first heli will be cheap anyway so don't try and buy more heli than your skill can handle, eccp's are good and you can learn on them, I did, but they cost money all the time, there's not one crash that didn't cost me money and time,
my friend has learnt with a walkera 4 that I moded for him, he learns by crashing and most of the time it costs nothing, it just bounces, you can only go so far with a fix pitch but one year in and he's just got to a point where he's flying a walkera 60 eccp I built for him and the 4 still gets used every week,
your soon learn you get what you pay for and most end up with heli's costing nearer a grand than a few hundred, so don't think of your heli as one that will last, it's just to see if you get the bug,
I know I went up market for my second heli, the radio cost twice as much as my first heli, and worth every peney, thats what the cheap RTF heli's do, just get you in to the hobby, you then spend all your time trying to make them fly right, and up grade them, servo's that can take a crash and a radio that doesn't glitch and battery's with anothe power for a good flight, brushless motors'ESC' metal head parts a good charger ect and all the old parts are scrap, it's better to buy a cheap fix pitch and learn how to make that work and fly it and then move strait up to the best 450 eccp you can buy and fit all the best parts to it, that way you don't spend loads in the long run on a cheap RTF eccp ,
