    30 size helis have sort of become a bit of white elephant these days. There are a few available but most people go straight for a 50 as it only costs slightly more uses slightly more fuel and is a lot more useable as you progress.

    I can't really point you at the best option but I'd guess £ for £ the Rappy is still the safest option

                            it's not ment to look abrupt

                            i was expecting to see loads of posts saying get a 600


                            but although i'm a hirobo flier
                            as on the op you've had a raptor 30
                            i will say get a raptor 50





                            but i may be tempted looking at the tt x50 when it comes out of hiding
