  • I've payed now looking to pay again ;)

    ok so now ive payed my debt to mum and dad for my car and theyve said they are going to buy 2/3 refills of fuel (bonus!!) im thinkin i need a new machine
    im gunna be choosing between the align 250se and the 500
    i know what most people will say 'go for the 500 because it's more stable' but i'll explain why i would like both
    250se:
    i do quite a bit of indoor flying and i can use the same charger i currently use atm to charge the batteries
    500:
    it a bigger more stable machine and i like it lol

    as a different choice i might not get a new machine and instead get a dx7 or charger (or both)

    could you vote in the poll so it is clear which is my best choice out of the 5 and if you wish you could add reasons why

    thanks very much!

    edit: if you choice one of the charger options could you say which one please,

    I am very pleased with my CellPro 10S but they are not cheap - I thought long and hard about this or the Multi4, but as I already had a charger for non Li-Po I pushed the boat out on the 10S.

    Its a tricky choice though as to what to go for out of all the options, if you dont need a DX7 then perhaps think about getting that later if you move into Nitro etc. I think I would go 500 personally though.

        Out of all the helis I have had for a good all rounder the 500 wins hands down.

        Its not too intimidating to fly and try new moves on. Its cheap to repair and is because of this so much fun to fly.

        I will defo be getting another 500 v soon.

        Trex250 is a good fun little heli but thats it imo.

        If you got a decent radio you can still fly so I would go for a new 500.

          450 pro or sport... can be flown in doors and out
          I left the hobby 3 years ago and discovered Women.

          I wish I never left.

              A DX7 will last you no matter what bird you get. Yes a Rex5 would be nice as well. Just borrow more.

                For a new heli, you would be hard pushed to beat the 450V2 SE from Real Raptors

                Click here

                Under £150 for the airframe, motor, ESC and Carbon Blades cant go wrong with that.

                    I've opted for DX7 & charger simply cos if you went for the heli's you've mention then you'd soon want DX7!
                    Today's outlook is fine for flying.
