I picked one up at the store today because I have always wanted a remote control helicopter. I was a bit skeptical due to the price and the fact that they are IR. I am pleased to say that they are fricking sweet. The only draw back is that you only get 5min or so of fly time (read, crash time) before it needs to be charged again. I highly recommend picking one up.

Quoted: They are not CCPM, and really just toys. You don't know what expensive is until you start flying real r/c helis. I figure it's about $50 per week... not including the initial outlay... if you are working on 3d double that. I know whatever you are into must be too expensive for me. I lost you after the first sentence. Perhaps if I find this thing to be sustained fun for long enough I may get into something more serious. |

If you think thats cool, go to a real hobby shop and pick up an Eflite Blade Mcx. its about the same size as an air junk, with full control, replaceable parts, and you can get multiple batteries.
