Well, i guess it's be interesting to put up stuff i have bought/seen/heard/eaten. Guess now's a good time as any!
Recently got into RC helis... i'm no pro mind you. My only other experience is with the PicooZ micro copter. My buddy recently got a very cool Syma S002 copter, which is a 3 channel beast compared to the Picoo... plus it flew really well!
That got me looking for a copter too (thanks buddy! :p), and after browsing through the web, i decided on the Esky Lama V4 chopper... man, i didn't know what i was getting into! Suffice to say, a electric RC chopper is a different thing altogether.
This is the Lama V4...
... not this. :p
The Lama V4 is a 4-channel co-ax copter, so no tailrotor needed. It's ready to fly outta the box, so just charge the battery, and off you go! Simple right? No way! It's pays to spend a few hours to get a hang of the controller and the four channels - throttle, rudder, elevator, aileron.... as they say... "simple to learn, difficult to master"!
Getting this is my first step to another class of choppers, the 6-channel ones......... considering a TT Mini Titan or the Align Trex 450/500... but i really gotta think carefully... expensive hobby! :)

Woots ! Nice blog dude ! hmm... I tot RC choppers were a pretty straight forward hobby.. just a controller and a chopper right ? Little did I know it gets very technical and also very expensive if you really wanna go all out :P
