sfaust - Thanks for the info. This is very good comments.

I have heard that the bigger helis are best because of stability or less fluttery. I think I will start with the Trex 600 ESP. It seems that this is a common name. I think the electric would be easier to carry in my car and not worry about oil on the seats. I hope it is a good one.

- Am I going to need a PhD to set it up? I do know of a guy at our club that has a heli, but I don't know how experienced. never seen him fly.

- If I can fly the CX3 do I need training gear on the Trex 600?

- What can I do to tame it down for a little while?

Thanks guys!!
