What do you recommend I have no experience with heli&rsquo;s but I have a good flight sim. Thanks</p></span>

OK Dude, now you've got my curiosity. Where did you buy all the parts from??? I'm trying to imagine where I'd get Spektrum DX6i TX + AR6200 DSM2 6-channel receiver for any less than $200. Or is your estimate not including TXand RX? Are you using used components?

I'm probably just looking in all the wrong places, but dang you got my interest up. I mean, a T-Rex clone for $200 is real hard to pass up!!!

Looks pretty neat especially for the price. They don't say there is any aileron support but sure looks like it since there are two servos on the swashplate, and it is a 4-Channel. Some people seem to recommend moving to a fixed pitch single rotor machine as a next step before CCP machines. I've heard somewhere that the separate tail rotor motor is less successful because they wear out quickly and response isn't as quick at belt driven tail rotors. But hey look at the price!

I just can't believe how cheaply they can build these things. That's why this hobby is taking off affordability for newbies like us.
