This one is simple for all to answer. Just type in what was the first helicopter you owned. (ex: "Kyosho Nexus") Umm... I think you guys can figure this one out.
Thanks, sorry about the overflow of threads from me!

Kalt Baron 30 S

Concept DX 30 (1989) I think ~S~
Sluater 60 (german heli) my first 60 size... ~S~

graupner/heim uni-star 60

TSK MyStar with JR Century VII radio. Not quite the best machine to learn on. But, I did learn a lot about mechanical setup without a computer radio.

Hawk 30 SE.

GMP Competitor

GPH 346

Kyosho Concept....Tower Special. I never flew it.

American R/C Mantis. Long since deceased.

Heli-baby. Gyro free, programming free, collective free. So simple, how could it not fly? I've asked myself that for years
basmntdweller

GMP Cobra w/ OS.45 (airplane engine) with a Kraft 6-Channel series '75 radio, no gyro.

Rappy 30.

Kalt Baron 28..

GMP Cricket .28
Well it almost flew.. After I threw it really hard..

Thanks All, Keep It Up!

shuttle zx

hey shuttle zx/bigbri-- was the shuttle any good to start on? I think thats what everyone nearby flies (RGs and Freyas)

Shuttle was a GREAT helicopter. I learned on it and so did a friend of mine. The belt start was a pain in the a$% though. The new ones have a top start. The high mainshaft all but eliminates tailboom strikes (common beginner error)
You cannot go wrong with a shuttle and they are going cheap on the Heli for sale column.....Got to tell you though I now got a Raptor and I feel it is a better flying machine. And a big bonus...parts are cheaper
Good luck and have fun

Thanks so much.

Kyosho nexus was mine

The Nexii was my first!

Would have rather learned on the shuttle though.


Heli on,
Shannon

Shuttle ZXX

Ergo 30....and love it!
