I'm wanting to get a electric heli for this winter,I been looking at the smaller electric ones that i could fly indoors....not like in the living room indoors but I have a 30'X40'X20' pole barn that i would fly it in. I was looking at this one http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXMDN9**&P=ML but i would like to hear some opinions first before i go buying anything. If possible i would like to keep it at or under $200 RTF.
 
no contest E-Flite Blade CX2

have you even flown a "real" (rc)heli before? if not then you need aLOT of sim time. but a co-axial like the CX2 anyone can fly.
o and dont waste your money on a tail motored bird, it'll never trim constantly, unflyable. shaft or belt driven tail is the ONLY way to go.

my fleet:
Lama V3
CX2
Blade CP Pro (sold in a week, tail motored bird are so inconsistant, crap)
T-Rex 450S
 
I started with a Blade CX and no sim time or experience. I had it figured out in a day or so. I totally demolished my original one day when I got a little brave outside. I bought a used on that looks and works like new on the bay for $73.
 
Dude I own/run a hobby shop if you are loking for a easy to fly easy to get parts for heli (you WILL need parts I dont care who you are) its gonna be the CX2 hands down you can walk in just about any hobbyshop and find parts pls they are rock simple and they have recently upraded the so its an even better heli for the money.
