WINTER BAD WEATHER REMEDY (is anyone else into these?)

[LuckyDuc]

Helis are addictive. I've been flying for about 5 yrs now.

These 2 copters are good.
definitely the best supported.

Yeah she ordered it from Wowhobbies. It's was to get wet and fly indoors when it's raining. Yeah I talked to Jonathan yesterday and he was telling me about the cb180z pro and the ability to use the radio I'll be getting.

You know Christmas is comming up soon and I may be thinning the fleet. All depends how much side jobs I can book.


Aloha,

HAHA Mr.Properchopper. After talking to you you had me looking at these things online. I've been searching different forums and my ol' lady got me a walkera lama 2-1, to screw around with at home. It didn't even come yet and I was eyeballing the walkera cb180z air rider. Too bad I'm broke......

Careful Bro, Helis are Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
addicting

The Walkera 2-1 is a great trainer - it's a co-ax and self stabilizing. Great indoor heli-not outdoor wind capable. I have a 180Z [not the wind rider-also self stabilizing with a 45 degree flybar/single rotor/3-axis gyro.] I absolutely love it. I fly mine every morning in my back parking lot when there's no wind - I defeated the aileron and elevator gyros for more control. Once you feel comfortable with the 2-1 you can buy a "bind & fly" 180Z - uses the 2-1 Tx. Check out Wow Hobbies. BTW did I read somewhere that you might have a rigger possibly for sale ? Wanna trade for a T-Rex 450 clone RTF ? [ collective pitch- VERY hard for a beginner - it scares the sh*t out of me]

Mahalo !!

This thread is pure evil. Those Heli demo vids are simply mind-boggling.

After a LOT of practice I could probably do some really nice ovals in the sky...but then I'd have to land it...

I really like that new Blade. Very sharp.

Me Addicted ?

Thanks, Bro ! The MCX Tandem is very cool, I've seen it fly, and the "Bind 'N Fly" feature makes it more accessable if one already has a Tx. Good move on Horizon's part for sure.The new MCX2 is VERY sharp - might end up being a "must have" addition to my fleet (squadron?). I hung out with some with the Horizon Heli guys at RCX. Very cool guys. One of the execs was flying a MSR around the r/c car track & beating the cars around the course !

My fleet now : E-Bay cheapie
MCX S300 (with lights)
MSR stock
MSR custom (with lights , CF landing gear coming)
Walkera 4# (waiting for parts) oops
Blade SR (at Horizon for refurb-OOPS)
E-Sky simulator

2nd lesson coming today on T-Rex 450 - saving up for one now - It's the Shizzle !!!

Glad I'm not hooked on FE boats - Oh, Wait

What's this guys name?

I wrote his name down & lost the note. It was either Smith or Jones. I feel bad, I should'a given him some recognition.

[Brushless55]

Have you all seen 6 year old Justin?

I talked to the guy; he has over 1500 hours on a simulator plus years of flying. He modestly said he's in the top 10 in the US. I watched him all day for two days ; made me feel rather "less than" I\

I'm interested in your 450; pm me with details, maybe trade for some boat stuff or ?
