I started to get serious with helicopters a few months back after years and years of fixed wing. They are challenging but the flights as you describe are so rewarding; being close at the terrain.

Just got the FI 206. Thanks a lot thread…

[image] Ariana2022UK: Best helicopter for £10 at the moment for someone not mad about helicopters but will have character and a bit of fun. Isn’t the R22 about a tenner in the marketplace sale? I paid in a different currency and try to forget my spending so might be wrong. :sweat_smile: To t…
