2nd Rc Helicopter

jamie619

Hi,
I have flown and have gotten bored of the syma s107 i would like an outdoor helicopter as my 2nd heli an if possible a helicopter that i can fly at the start and then be able to preform acrobatics later with it.

I have been considering the following-

Solo Pro 328

Esky Honeybee CP2

TWISTER 2.4G CP GOLD

TWISTER 400S SPORT - http://radiocontrolledshop.ie/easy-f...elicopter.html

Titan 450- not sure if i could afford depends on deal i could find

Kds qs450 -not sure if i could afford depends on deal i could find

Let me know on what you think are the best options for.
Thanks
Jamie

The trex 450 is a good heli or the thunder tiger 450 helis like the mini titan or you could go nitro and get a tt raptor 30 v2. Thats what i fly find it a nice heli once i can fly the v2 better getting the x50 flybarless. If this is your first collective pitch heli for outdoor go for a good tt raptor v2 as with the 450 size helis you will want a very calm day to fly. The collective pitch heli wont be as stable as what you have being flying so would advise a good flight sim like the phoenix these have a second hand 30 v2 for €400 http://www.modelheliservices.com/ keep an eye on adverts and donedeal in the hobbies section hope that has helped you

First off dont get carried away with the youtube videos the helis will be flown by professionals to make them look easy to fly looks like a nice little heli but i dont know to much about them you could get it and it might be to lively for ya a nightmare to fly i get stuff of radio controlled shop give him a ring he wont put ya wrong tell him where you stand with helis what ya have flown and what ya want to move on to or call in to him if your in dublin sometimes its better face to face than over the phone as i said before ya will want a very calm day to fly a heli that size starting off the wind will make bits of it

i am in a similar position myself , started off with 3ch co axial then bought the twister 400 sport which is a great little heli, perfect next step towards collective pitch . i agree with peter , you will need a very calm day to fly the twister outside but if you can fly indoors (garage , sports hall etc ) its really good . i will be moving on to my t rex 450 when i've mastered the twister
