already see the copterX quite alot of times liau actually ...
youtube got alot of good stable videos oso ... thats why well worth considering .. plus parts can use ALIGN one ... hehehe

see la when i got the time and patience to go i will have a look laa ...
thing is price rm550+ according cliffang above quite good price liau lorr .. plus its a LHS easier to get some support of some sort lorr .. hehehe

copterX is one of the TREX clones around maaa ...
in the US market alot of CHEAPER TREX clones but have to import in yourself la if u want ..
one of the cheapest 450 size i heard is about USD36 or so for the kit then u have to add shipping etc etc ... but plastic parts la not like the copterX .. hehehehe

yaa ... price of the copterX kit is actually CHEAPER than the 4G3 V2 .. hahaha
but its a different thing .. u cannot play 450 size anywhere u like maa ..
and if u can fly the 4G3 then u can fly almost any heli liau i read

hahaha ... already mentioned i am eye-ing the copterX liau maa
oso mentioned ... got kits which can be ordered for usd36 ... which is plastics laa .. oso got lots of clones out there

so far from my reading .. copterX is 99% parts compatible with ALIGN TREX ... so parts can interchange lorr if one feels another is better ... that oso helps in scarcity of parts due to ALIGN being a popular brand .. correct or not ah uniquexme ?? hehehehe

cliffang ... uniquexme oso got fly 4G3 .. he sells them oso la of coz ... hehehe .. u can ask for his opinion
i think if u not interested in power & 3D the 4#3B is a better option for indoors
i just wanna fly the 4G3 outdoors where those biggger helis fly coz they look down on small super micro helis maaa ... and oso show them can do mild 3D at least (after alot of upgrades which is the same as bigger helis la) ... hehehehe

IMO .. small crafft has much lesser force to crash with due to lighter weight so in a crash lesser damage parts (read that oso from alot of super micro users) but much harder to learn and control due to its "too sensitive" to control" nature ... so when i get the copterX it will be parking and build it up slowly project until i can at least do good hovering & FF with the 4G3 ...

Added on May 14, 2009, 10:20 amgraffiti oso got sell 4G3 meh ?? how much they selling ??

how good is the 4G3 indoors ??
here is a SCALED 4G3 flying ... but looks like good pilot la that one .. hehehe

walaneh .. rm600/hair ?? this one really got $$$ punya orang la .. hehehe

ya ... get the soon to be released walkera OEM BL tail setup for your 4G3 ... hehehe
but i heard it comes with 2g tail motor .. not enuff for more 3D stuff (according to orang puteh la) .. and oso terence said the flea would not be enuff to power the 2.9g
so i dunno what i might be getting for the tail yet .. see how much pricing difference but most prolly will get the 2.9g one laa since terence will be having a special offer towards end of this month for complete motor+flea+custom tail holder .. hehehe

FULL parts support ah ??
even for 4G3 ??
if 4G3 got full parts support then its another place to go to laa in case desperate for parts ... hehehe
thanks for letting us know

so at the end of the day ... never argue with RINGGIT MALAYSIA (or whatever currency u are being paid in) is the lesson lorr ... hahahahahaaa

will be placing order for BL tail tonite la ... cannot tahan liau
the offer from terence already start from now until end of month ... hehehe

i already got realflight and aerofly for the last 1-2 months ... more than enuff liau
everyday spent 1-2 hours on it .. now can fly in the PC quite well liau la ... real life dunno yet .. hahahahaa

nope ... last nite BUNGKUS after badminton game ... hahahahahaa
will do it tonite laa

not PRO .. just wanna make informed decisions and not just buta buta buy or use maaa
both the AEROFLY and REALFLIGHT are AHEMMM versions ... hahahahahaaa
but as long as it works ... does it matter ??

ok ... lets assume u wanna start with something that is 3D capable
with helis its is almost unavoidable to crash when new and learning ... unless u super genius laa
so with a collective pitch heli which is 3D capable ... comes HIGH HEADSPEED (very high speed blades)
so when u crash something that is spinning very fast ... chances are u will break more things than a slow speed one
fixed pitch are not 3D capable but running at much slower headspeeds ...

all in all ... if u are financially ready for repairs and down time of a CP or 3D capable heli ... then go for it
a fixed pitch will be easier and cheaper to fix

i think mentioned earlier is oso the size PROs and CONs ...
small = lesser damage but hard to learn
big = bigger damage but easier to learn laa

small things normally cheaper than those big ones ... hehehehe

ESKY KING 2 ??
eerr .... parts not really cheap ... so better get a better chassis costing abit more but better for u in the long run
but its up to u to start with something u are comfortable with ... do some research around on what are your other options besides ESKY KING 2 ..
i am not saying its not good ... alot of ppl started with ESKY (me included) .. hehehe
as long as it gets u into the hobby and is teaching u something new then fine ...
but i would suggest u to get the honeybee FP around rm350 ready to fly if u really want ESKY ... it takes crashes better and therefore alot less repair time and more flying time ... hehehe

hmmmm ... good radio
DX7 and DX6i alot of good to excellent feedbacks on forums
7C and 9C oso same ...
i suppose at the end of the day it all comes back to how COMFORTABLE we feel with the radio la rite ?? hehehe
i really dislike the ESKY TX .. the sticks with the sharp ends really hurts the thumb after longer period ... but for now no choice use it for sim .. hehehe

i can fly FFF ... backward ... inverted FF without crashing in sim .. tail down funnels oso ... hehehehe
maybe i just buy a radio 1st then later only buy heli ... just like uniquexme said ... at least i can use it for my sim ... hahahahaaa

another review i read on the ASSAN gyro is ... not consistent ... today may be very solid and good ... tomoro suddenly not working well .. maybe bad batch laaa
i have oso read alternative to digi servo 9257 but cheaper with similar performance is the JR3500 .. uniquexme got try b4 ah ??

hehehe ... another thing to put into the reserve list liau ..
