I would lean toward the 9101 because it does not have a seperate tail motor. These tend to burn out fairly quick, and require replacing Don't really know anything about this brand, but just offering my 2 cents

I always say to stay away from the the toy grade heli's. You can't get parts for them and quality is really lacking. You would be better off spending an extra $40 and get an Blade MCX. They are durable, light, and you can get replacements parts quite easily.

Amen to that.

Yep, Blade mCX is a way better choice. Great first step into heli flying. Nearly indestructible too.

I know that people look at them for the price, but when you look at the big picture, all you are really doing is throwing your money away on those toy grade heli's.
