... I am fairly new also and as with any hobby it all depends on budget. I personally would recommend the Trex 450 for a great 1st bird. I started with nitro...
I have a slight problem with charging batteries. Seems like there should be a way to charge more then 1 batt at a time. I was looking at the Electrifly...
Chris, As you mentioned there are limitations to the polycharger but for about $100 you can't beat being able to charge 4 lipo batteries at a time. I've got a...
Yes money is not as much of an issue as time is. I think I may just change my son's RC car over to lipo and that would solve my problem for now with a...
Hey guys, I'm brand new so go easy :-): 1. My new T-Rex is flying pretty well (I'm just hovering and flying boxes right now) except for a slight wag in the...
The 770 takes some work to setup correctly, but it is awesome once dialed in. If you are near 141 and the River today (Garrard Park), bring it by the park and...
John, Good to hear that your 500 is still flying. Most people would have crashed a couple of times by now. The tail wag can sometimes be a very tricky issue...
You just need a job that expects you to respond 24/7 and work evenings. Then they don't mind you taking off for 4 hours in the afternoon. Maybe a good trade,...
Does anyone have an extra Spectrum receiver that they want to sell? I have a new plane and I'm a big fan of used equipment. Let me know. Thanks, Doug...
Anyone else use X-Plane as a Flight SIM? I¹ve put a lot into it over the years so I¹m trying to make it work but it¹s a little shallow on RC Helis. Any...
I hate to miss the fun fly at LeAnne Levitan but a small group of us will be heading up to Greenville, SC for the day to check out the Joe Nall Classic, one of...
I am new to Nitro Heli and would like to learn it from experts. I got an used Raptor 30 Nitro but never fly before. Also got most of equips from HobbyTown. Any...

I have a couple of 3 cell lipo's 11.1 v 1200mAh left over from a Walkera starter heli, and was wondering if I can use them with my Trex 450's. I asume if I can...
I wouldn't do it. The flight times will be 2-3 minutes and the head speed will be considerably lower. Plus it may overheat the packs and damage them. Doug Sent...
Bill, You probably won't do any damage to the heli or esc but the battery's may not last depending on the discharge rates. As Doug mentioned if the batteries...
This should become your home away from hope: http://www.raptortechnique.com/ Do you own a sim yet? If not buy RealFlight G3.5 or G4 or Reflex and practice...
I was wondering where LeAnne Levitan Park is? i tried to google it and follow the links on the calendar, but no success. Does anyone have a general idea of...

Hope to see everyone at the park today. I just spoke with Robert and we are planning on having the event at the covered pavilion on the left hand side where we...
Okay we officially learned a few things today: 1. Pavilion rocks for rainy days. 2. Georgia forecasters need to go back to school. 3. Helicopters can fly in...
Once Scott left......LoL.... the rain let up a bit to pull out the scale bird and then hit some 3D with the Rappy. Was great to get out with the fellas....
