  • Which model to buy next

    So I've decided to replace the Logo with something else but what ??

    I've owned and flown,

    Honeybee King 3
    Copter X 450
    Trex 450
    2 X Trex600
    Raptor 30
    Logo 400
    Logo 600

    I'm swaying back toward nitro because I hate changing batteries in the field and charging them up (maybe I'm strange) but at the same time I sort of fancy a Trex 550 but I'd like a 90.


    Nothing is really jumping out at the moment - can't decide what to try next.

      I still fancy the Aurora Tony, but I seem to remember people saying they were a real pain on maintenance. But yeah the 700 would be nice and heli harry has an airframe for sale at the moment.

              the x50 is light years ahead of the old raptor
              its a great flying model out of the box, when it catches on other heli's will be a dieing breed

                Does look nice thought - actually quite tempted by that.

                      YS120 Only if it fits the Whiplash. I think that might be the one. Going to bed to think about it.

                      nly problem is I don't think my LHS is going to be doing Miniature Aircraft Parts.




                      As for the Goblin - NO absolutely not its downright ugly, Stupidly expensive, and I'll never be able to fly well enough to justify that amount of power.

                            Being that flybarless is the great leveler, why not stick with a 700 nitro, its relatively cheap easy maintenance and there are more parts available than you could ever finish using.

                            only other reason for getting one of the more premium machines is exactly that to own a premium machine.
                            All the best
