Default 3 channel Heli recommendation

Hi, I am looking for an office toy heli that is 3 channel, mode 2 for use in my house, office. Irecently bought a Big Lama and also 3 $27 heil's for buddies. they are OK, but are mode 1. As I fly heli's that are mode 2, it is a must. I would also prefer something a bit bigger than most of the toys, something over 14 inches is preferred. Iwould also like to keep the price under $35 if possible. thanks, Paul

thanks for the reply phmaximus.

the heli's Ibought at xheli were great, but they were mode 1. as Ialso fly 4 channel heli's, Ijust want to stick with mode 2. What Igot for $27 was all the quality Iam expecting, just mode 1.

thanks for the reply bigdawg. Yeah, Iwas looking at the S107 also, but it is also Mode 1. The left stick is throttle only. It seems that all the 3 channel heli's are Mode 1. Imay just buy a small 4 channel after all.

thanks again,
Paul

nine eagles solo pro can be mode 1 or 2, I think (but it is 4 channel). However, it is really small.

I have come to the conclusion that no one makes a 3 channel heli that is mode 2. As I also fly a 4 channel mode 2, it would be confusing to fly a 3 channel mode 1. At some point, I will probably buy a small 4 channel mode 2 heli for indoors. thanks for the replies. Paul
