I've got 2 of them. The first one I bought was the Heli-Max Rotofly from Hobby People (I'm sure your aware of this one dabid) I paid WAY too much money for it ($300) when it first came out and the thing really doesn't fly that great. Don't even try to fly it outside.

The second one is the E-flite Blade CP (what standard_63 mentioned). HUGE DIFERENCE! For about half the cost that I paid for the Heli-Max (got it used on ebay), the Blade is bigger, better quality and flies way better. And it has the colective pitch for inverted flying that the Heli-Max doesn't have.

If I could recomend one thing to anyone that is going to attempt to fly a helicopter is to practice on a simulator first. I have the Real Flight G3 that was a good investment for this. You could probably get one for a good price with your discount dabid.

Practice, practice, practice...... then go out and crash. :D
