How much you intended to spend for the heli?

my budget is around 200. i really fancy this thing, except for the size.

any recommendation? something that's around 1foot in length and could fly for at least 10mins.

THIS one or THIS one will serve u better and is a much more closer to flying a real RC heli ...

the one u listed above is THIS grade ...

Yeah, I'm agree with our sifu QiW~

i didn't say i'm getting too serious with the hobby, so i'll try not to get offended by that statement.

thanks, for the info on the 4ch helis, gonna pay the shop a visit tomorrow(i was in amcorp last thursday, but didn't notice that shop).

well ... to each their own
i was just voicing what ppl in rc world thinks of those "helis" ... but as long as u have fun then there is nothing to be concerned about
u must understand that spare parts availability is oso a main concern in this hobby coz when u crash and damage stuff u will need replacement parts ... and there is no doubt crashing is inevitable in this hobby

crap! i took your bait and got myself the colco 4ch apache. pretty sweet although it defeats the purpose of me wanting to bring it along when i travel. once you get the hang of it, it's a pretty good heli. although it does not come with the simulation software like the esky's lama, it looks too awesome to miss.

no crashes yet, but i broke the 1st set of blades and now running on spares.

err ... what bait ?? i did not say anything about COLCO oso ?? hehehehe
but if its a 4 channel then its getting closer to the real rc heli world ..
parts availability ?? those blades should be interchangeable with those esky ones i think ... just as long as the lengths are roughly the same

once u master this thing ... should take u about 2 weeks
then u will be sort of ready for single rotors .. hehehehe

Happy New Year! Any new year toy for u guys?

got damm lots of new toys la since last 2-3 months
planes and helis oso got ...
possibly more new toys coming in this month oso ... huahahahaa

The 2801PRO Tx will cost USD299... about RM1.05k... Anyway I'll only use the tx for the 4g6 so the 2801 will be too much for it... since got the DSX7... not bother about 2801...

I ordered from helipal, USD229 with 2602 tx + extra some parts (Christmas Combo)
Inclusive of EMS postage is RM874.40
