Thanks Not much when you think about it compared to the heli

When I saw a trex next to a raptor I was gutted. They're huge. But my heli is still a dam clever piece of kit. Just not so many places to fly around here.

He was right in that it would have been better me getting a IC but this just started as me wanting to get a tiny little heli and fly around my front room.

Now it's cost me 1400+ and I haven't flown a thing

There are loads more places you can fly a small electric than you can a nitro bird, just ask my Raptor how long since it was last off the ground...

Off work today with a broken heart (aw)

BUT, the weather looks good so I'm off to the park for my FIRST FLY

Fingers crossed

I might pop along to the local clubs field and say hi

Have you go any Insurance yet ?? if not the following may concentrate your mind-;

I was watching the Korean news today when it broadcasted that an RC Helicopter hit and killed a child in a school yard. The machine was a Hirobo Eagle WCII; the guy flying either lost control or had a lockout as the new indicated that he could control the aircraft anymore. The news showed the site of the incident, the aircraft and the parents. This is tragic. It showed the school yard and lots of children were still playing after the child had been rushed to the hospital. There are still those of us out there that neglect to think about how dangerous our sport really is until something like this happens. Please be cognizant of your surroundings, join a club, fly within their bylaws and get some insurance. Naturally, you can't bring back the child but whats next. Accidents happen but most of them are preventable. Lets be safe guys! Take care.

I agree but IC clubs aint got much room for electric guys

Insurance is useless for the harm to life but essential to harm to property. I aint got it yet but in the mean time I will not fly if anyone is around. No way. I had great fun in the park car park today. It was empty and perfect. Insurance is my next step. I wanted it for my local club but kinda felt talked out of joining?!?!?

"Insurance is useless for the harm to life???" not when your being sued for hurting some one it aint!

[Symon]

Fair enough. I was being slightly pedantic. If I killed someone the last thing I'd care about is the suing aspect. I'd wanna die myself. But if I harmed someone I guess your right.

Apologies

[chappers]
