      WHY?

      Because I want something that is big enough to be seen and feel like a real helicopter....i.e not a small toy like heli.... even though some of these small ones seem to get great reviews. But not so big that it is a burden to lug around.

      I would imagine the Blade 400 should be able to be setup for stability similar to a Trex 450 (if they are roughly the same size / weight ).

      I started with a 450, then kinda abandoned it in favour of nitro helis and now I really like the 450's again. I have both mine setup to be very stable. The portability is a big plus as well. I just got off on the wrong foot with my first 450 back in 2007 and it was probably due to my own lack of knowledge on the setup side. Either that or my thumbs got smarter. But basically, with a little flybar weight and correct mechanical / tx setup they can be very tame.
