Unhappy Help!! I NEED one of these .....

I was SURE that Santa was bringing me a Radio-Controlled Helicopter .... a RC Systems MINI COPTER from Modelzone.

But he didn't ............ and I was all ready for it

Anyone got one? Its electric (about £150 - 200) - use indoors or on a calm day outside?

Any hints at which is best - there seem a lot on the Internet .... KYOSHO is bringing one out in February 2005 at £250 - worth waiting for?

Is a 4-Channel good enough? I don't think I'll be doing aerobics (not intentionally anyway!) ...........

Are they worth the money or will it last minutes before I need new blades at £20 a throw?

this one would be perfect for you to get started with mate.

theres a few fellow model heli flyers on here that will agree with me that you are better having something like this if you want to learn and get the "bug".

cheeseboy is one of them.

That seems excellent ...... now, move it off dodgy EBay and into a shop near me and its as good as bought!!

Seems cheap at £70 + £25 Delivery ...... where do I take it when it doesn't work? Hong Kong?

Looks just the job though

hes got good feedback for sending similar goods from hk. at that price you replace the whole unit. in fact it would be cheaper to buy two straight away, and swap and exchange bits as and when its neccesary.
