| Where you're going wrong is saying you will "NEVER" do something. As soon as you put the never on it, your doomed, it will happen.
Actually, I think learning and flying the 50 size nitro's have a tendency to slow down your learning good control skills. Boy, am I gonna hammered with that comment.
I say that because I started with the CP Pro, got where I could control it somewhat and then went to the bigger heli's, a 50 nitro and a 450 electric. I still spent most of my time practicing with the 450 but once I got where I felt comfortable with the 50 nitro I quit flying the 450 for a while. After three crashes in one weekend with the nitro, I decided to go back to the 450 and get my act back together. The nitro had spoiled me so bad, I couldn't even fly the 450, it took me a week just to get it where I could keep a reasonable hover.
Now I spend most of my time flying the 450's and fly the nitro's every now and then. Bought four cases of fuel and only used about a gallon in the past six weeks.
One other nice thing about that little 450 electric, I can walk out the front door and fly all I want, don't have to load everything up and drive 35 - 45 miles to a field. |
let me be the first to hammer you about that comment. Consider yourself HAMMERED. ( Best I can do right now.)
