I know that they are very challenging to fly, but they're boring. Like R/C cars, there is virtually no construction involved. If you hit it you buy a whole bunch of new parts and replace the broken ones. And they're yawnsville to watch in the air/ When a heli is doing it's greatest trick (hovering) it's standing still. IOW, parked. Okay, it's parked 2 feet off the ground, but parked is parked and it gets old FAST. I really don't have a problem with *other* guys flying heli, but the bloody things spend the entire flight whizzing about right over the strip (preventing other people from using it) and make a deafening racket in your ears that makes it virtually impossible to hear your own engine while you're in flight. I honestly wish the heli pilots would go fly somewhere else, because they're a pain in the ass. > FYI Also, some links on http://www.anjo.com/rc/powerplants/ are busted. :( Yep. :-/ One of these days I'm gonna FIX that website... --- þ Synchronet þ Made of wood and glue, but mostly glue! .
