You know my sifu , last time he told me he frequently fly at TMJ.

Just find out my sifu crash his compy300 V2 today at BTHO.. . He did mentioned to me some of pro flyer's look at compy as cheapo heli . He also tell me he maybe going to get the walkera 4G3 V3 to rock the BTHO , the smallest CP helicopter capable 3D..Hmm my sifu weird like to fly cheapo heli.

QiW,

Just wondering why you bought the 4G3 instead 4#3b . The 4#3B more suitable for beginner and it's can some brutal abuse compare to 4G3 .

I didn't mess up the setting once my sifu properly do the setup. I just charge battery and fly my compy300 v2 ,if raining i hover my neon fp inside a house but not compy300 v2 due to it's very high headspeed.

My sifu can fly 3D , but he's still fly FP around . He told me flying FP much relax and less tension and he really enjoy it and at the same time he like encourage more beginner start with FP without bleeding the wallet.So i'm not suprise Qiw will buy walkera 4#3b.

Qiw,

Starting with CP quite headache at first time but you will get use it once you master the repair and setting.My sifu told me setup and tuning is a foundation skill every r/c pilot mush have except to those each crashes send to hobby shop for repair and setting.

Maybe you can consider NEON FP . It's a Fixed pitch 4channel helicopter . It's pretty stable once once lift off and hovering.I'm currently use neon fp to learn basic hovering.

Hey Qiw ,

Yes , alot of local sites , i still remember i start posting on local forum asking about compy300 . I find out they not really like a small heli anything below than 450class.

If you posted walkera heli on local site prepare to be bash kaw kaw . That's typical malaysian r/c pilot , if you mentioned walkera or small heli in RCgroup , they more likely to help you instead condem it.

Qiw,

Why you sakit hati about TREX450 PRO ? Trex450 PRO no good ah ?..

WALKERA 4#3 more suitable for beginner .

Heard a new's Trex450 PRO below rm 1500 also can get liao...

Hi Walikard ,

My compy300 V2 still in good shape . Currently i concentrate on NEON FP to learn basic orientation.

Hi guys,

Ivan also my sifu as well . He teach and give me alot of guide how to fly a r/c helicopter without bleeding the wallet . He's very nice and humble person. I'm really impress how well he handle and fly compy300 3D so smooth than those who fly nitro size. It's very hard to see micro helicopter perform smooth and nice 3D , mostly at any flying field those 450class or nitro size can fly 3D anything below that they will said no possible.

Maybe walkera 4#3b much easier to hovering compare to 4G3 . Time to get the 4#3b.

According to my sifu , 4G3 is ccpm and it's design a floating flybar system much harder for beginner to fly because it's sensitive while 4#3b much more less sensitive and slow response.

Some can 3D within a year some 3-4 year also can't 3D very well. It's depend on time allocation and $$$$ factor.

Compy work best with 1300mah lipo batteries.1000mah only for extreme 3D flying.

Yes, i have both . Compy i directly bought from aero-fever while neon fp from my-rcflyin hobby. I recommend get compy from my sifu my-rcflyin hobby because he will do a checking before ship out the compy . Like me i bought from aero-fever a lot of missing part . A bit frustrated when assembling the compy suddenly find out the part is not there.I have to contact the aero-fever to send me again the part of course need wait few more week to arrive.

I'm not so sure , i think you better check it with my sifu . I currently use 1300mah lipo which is much cheaper and reliable.

My Guru z esc work till now so far so good no problem on my neon fp.I haven't heard anything complain from sifu about guru-z esc.

I came across one of the member own a belt-cp , his esky esc burst into a flame . According to his statement the belt-cp flew few times only.Sometime unfortunate thing does happen .

If you feel playing heli does not need repair or maintenance i think this hobby is not for you . As you said play sim better.

If you look Qiw , how much he already spend on 4G3 and from what i can see he really enjoy it even though he face a lot of problem .

I don't think FP helicopter can hover only.The Fixed pitch helicopter very good for beginner to learn on it. The cost for repairing much lower compare to CP. The most important it's really stressful compare to bigger helicopter.
