Can I get into the radio controlled helicopter hobby for 200 dollars?
I am keenly interested in the radio controlled helicopter hobby. My question is this, can a beginner with no experience get into this hobby for around 200 dollars? I have seen compleat," ready to fly kits ", on eBay selling for as little as $117.00, new! " the Dragon 22E ". Which is an electric powered R/C helicopter, is this model a good beginners R/C helicopter kit ? The seller claims that everything needed to start flying is included in this kit package, is this true? Has anyone purchased this, or a similar kit ?
Since first posting this question, I have learned a lot about radio controlled helicopters. " THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS AREADY TO FLY " R/C helicopter. You need to understand how to set up your new R/C helio, before that first flight, and it is also good to understand how the real thing flys," How Things Work.com is a good place to learn that ". You also need to be able, analyze what happened just before a crash," and you will crash many times", before becoming a top R/C helio pilot. You also need dealer, and company surport, + AFFORDABLE SPARE PARTS.
WOOOOOOO slow down man!!!Have you ever flown a R/C plane?You will never be able to fly a helecopter trust me.I fly the planes and they are extremely hard to learn at 1st.You could probably get a used one off ebay for that money,but i garunty even your local hobby shop guy will guide you away from flying a helecopter,you can also see if your hobby shop has a flight simulater,most do and try flying one one there.But if you’ve made your mind up and are going to get one i would suggest ebay or ..http://rcuniverse.com or http://rcjunkyards.com they have forums there to ask questions on ,also used rc items for sale.Good luck,and happy flying=)
This is my Sale/Trade binder! Most things will be on my ebay which I will provide a link for below!!
