Richie_k83 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Hey all, So i am completely new to the flying world of RC, i have previously raced cars and built a few boats etc but nothing like this. I am interested in buying my first heli but i am looking for a single rotor 8 channel outdoor setup... Firstly what are peoples recommendations? Electric or nitro? Also are there any good beginner kits available to learn to fly myself? Any thoughts/advice welcome [emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samshirley001 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 start off with helicopters with maybe a fixed pitch heli, or if you are feeling brave, a MCPX. indoor micro helis are slighty more difficult to fly that larger ones, but come with much cheaper repair bills.helicopters are notorious for being difficult to fly, and they are, but rewarding when they work.one other reccomendation is getting a flight sim and putting in hours and hours of practice into it, will help loads when it comes to flyingyou also have to accept that you WILL crash, and you WILL have to fork out loads for spares Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie_k83 Posted August 18, 2014 Author Share Posted August 18, 2014 Thanks, will look around. What tends to break on them? I know a lot depends on the severity of the crash but just want to be sure repair parts are readily available Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
