what do you mean by micro?
micro as in palm size or about 2 feet?

I own both size and I like them both a lot.
I would really recommend the 2 feet one if you are just starting helis though.

in RC helis, micros refer to 300 size helis and smaller. Minis are 450. 300 size electric helis are still about 18" long though.

I guess then T-rex 250 is very good micro heli.
My neighbour bought it and I can see it a lot more stable than my Belt-CP with newb tx programming

yes, thanks for that clarification. I'm looking for the highest quality palm sized chopper. From my own research, it looks like the 4#3b, do you agree with that? If not, I'd like to see what I've overlooked.

by what rules? wattflyer calls the 450 class/325mm blade helis as 'standard' size, and doesn't list them with the mini. I feel anything under a 550mm blade is pretty small.......

There's no rules, nobody came along and decided what heli was going to be called what.... it's based on common usage. 450 helis are considered mini.
