hobbytech ... hobbyworld ... rcsmart
3 of these LHS are in amcorp mall PJ
there is another couple of hobby shops in times square which i forgot the names already ... one o them is a KYOSHO distro

it is best to buy the best radio u can AFFORD
ie. if u can stretch your budget to buy a 7 channel then buy that ... if still can go higher then buy the higher one
i am using the 8FG .. this has all the features i need for the time being and the near future that i can foresee .. around rm1.3k

yalorr ... super expensive just comparing the 450PRO
the others i dunno laa .. hahahaha

get your stuff here in BOLEHLAND .. its much cheaper !!!

i have never touched a BCP b4 ... except for maybe in the shop touch see see .. hahahahahhaa

its easy to say dont this and dont but everybody's limitations are not the same .. so choices are made according to their limitations

why work in SG travel up and down when u can work in malaysia for example ?? cannot make a living in malaysia ?? thats a sort of limitation but its different for everybody and their reasons
we can only try to pass on our experiences to others .. thats all
i have NEVER FLOWN a BCP but i have fellow flyers that says its a POS and i am know they can fly pretty well so i just pass on the word
the final choice is always dependent on each individual and the choice may not be the same for everyone ...

yes ... i do not recommend the BCP at all to any 1st time or even 2nd time heli buyers
the repairs and upgrades for it will prolly cost u more than an ALIGN ... just to make it fly like an ALIGN or the ALIGN's capabilities

just have a look at mr zhnme's BCP ... upgrade/mod this and that
but in the end still end up with 450PRO ...
and u must have the skill and know how to mod too

if u can sell means u are getting it at good price lorr .. hahahaha

err ... sometimes the prices u see at the sites may not be accurate coz if u go to shop personally and bargain u can get quite good price

but if it works for u then i am happy for u ...

not all items ... some items can get for quite good price compared to the advertised price
thats why i buy my planes mostly from LHS .. some thru OHS IF the LHS do not have what i want
but batts and electronics cannot beat the prices from HK kaaa .. hahahahahaa

mr zhnme already outgrow his modded BCP ... and ALIGN has became really affordable compared to few years ago
as he has mentioned ... the TREX is more transparent
so if your fingers and thumbs not so good then maybe the TREX will show it more apparently laa ... hehehehe

if a 700 hits u ... chances are u will be heavily injured or dead(if the blades hits u)

those 700 blades will hit u like samurai sword at those speeds
even 450 blades are like parang already ...
these are NOT TOYs ..

try rcsmart at amcorp mall or grafitti at berjaya times square ..

happy CNY to all u guys and gals 2 .. hehehe

today morning ... tomoro morning oso (saturday + sunday)

now u have seen RC plane flying ...
too bad nobody brought any helis to fly ... hahahaha
next time maybe

so late ... angpow oso finish liau lorr .. hahahaha

not me ... me in cheras area

normal la ... festive season maaa

good idea .. proceed .. hehehehe
