looking to step up
 

hello every one i have a mc and got it for christmas and have been flying just about everyday since then and im looking to step up to either a tandem rescue or the msr which one do you guys thing would be better thank you all zachary flowe

My vote is for the MSR. The tandem rescue is cool but will not really offer much more challenge. What are your future plans in this hobby?

RE: looking to step up
 

I agree with 9sec240 advance to the MSR or do like I do and get them all. :D This is just my micro mini fleet as I have others.

right now i dnt really know what my plans are although other than i want a lot of helicopters eventually i have the blade mcx and bought a dx6i last weekend and i just wonder wich one would be the best bang for the buck thank you all

RE: looking to step up
 

If you want a BNF then the MSR is about the only choice you have as far as advancing.

RE: looking to step up
 

yeah that was what i was thinking more towards the msr my question is how much harder are they to fly than the mcx thank you all

RE: looking to step up
 

I would not say it is much harder to fly than the MCX but the helicopter is much more capable. You can get enough speed going on an MSR to run out of room really quick.

RE: looking to step up
 

The mSR is very stable for a single rotor bird, but it is a lot faster in foward and reverse flight. It is also more responsive as well. It is the "hot rod" of E-Flite's ultra micro fleet. It is pretty easy to fly if you have mastered the mCX but if you decide to go crazy on the sticks, it will get out reach very quickly. And is has an adjustable swashplate setting (you move the control links to another set of control balls) that makes it even more aggressive. You won't be dissapointed IMHO!

oay thank you all ill be gettng it for my birthay wich is in april sadly but im ony 18 so moneys hard to comeby and i get all of my rc stuff either from bday or christmasbutt thank you all for the help zachary flowe

It will be worth the wait Zachary and feel free to ask questions anytime!

I always find it amusing when young people state their age as if it's a reason to not have any money. I hate to break it to you, but being older doesn't necessarily mean you'll have any more money than you do now. Just wait and see - although you may make more, you'll also have a LOT more expenses... bills, rent or morgage, car payments, insurance, groceries, etc... I wish I could go back to when I was 18 - I had SO MUCH more disposable income back then... hehe.

Oh, and getting back on track, I agree the mSR will be the way to go. The tandem really wouldn't be a "step up" at all, it's just something different.

Good luck

Go with the MSr and don't get frustrated with it.

The tandem is more fun than the MCX but you are still limited in what you can do with it.
