  • Un-believable!!! FBL-Walkera - LOL

    Well, 4 Channels and FBL !!! LOL
    Looks like the micro/mini size market is getting squeezed in with new helicopters!
    And (again), ladies and gentlemen, here's Walkera to the rescue!

    At the end of the day, its just a hobby and helicopters are helicopters so, lets just hope this makes somebody happy!

    I see on e-bay they about £165 delivered from china.

    Plenty for what will be a flimsy heli but would be attractive to me as an indoor flyer IF you could bind to a Spektrum Tx (which you can't) so I'll pass.

    If it were £120 and used your existing tx it would be a better bet than an MSR -IMO

      And for £115 new you get a trex 250 with cyclic servos. Then all you'll need to find is a 2nd hand gyro for £40-£50 and RX for about another £20

      Fast Lad Performance

      Or 2nd hand trex 250 sell bnf for £150 with lipos on this forum.

      I can't understand why people bother with the Msr or the above fbl micro heli?

        Spot on Tony. In truth I am unlikely to ever buy a Walkera .

        You can get to a 250 for probably £150, certainly if you sourced a few s/hand parts off the classifieds section.

        Having had a 250, I don't want another! And having had a MSR I certainly don't want one of them (they would be OK for £20)

          TRex 250 is a bit wild for a living room flyer though isn't it?

                I've also had an Msr, I sold it too. Imo the msr is too much for most lounges, you need a large sports hall if you want to fly to the full potential of that little heli. When you try and fly it outside, every time a mouse or bee would fart you would get blown all over the place. So it was an odd little heli; a bit too wild for the lounge and not man enough for out side.

                The one small heli I think is perfect for lounge flying is the blade mcx, it is so very precise and accurate. Yes it's not the fastest but imo it's perfect for flying indoors and the price................

                IT IS ONLY £35 NEW BNF!!!!!!!!
