They surely are fun!! I was at the level to where I just about bought a DJI Vision. The one with the iPhone interface transmitter for FPV flight. My Ar drone can be modded to do this as well. You add a better antenna system and better transmitter and they are capable of flying well over 400 meters with FPV. I haven't played with them for a couple years now and from the looks of it, it has taken off big time. Tapatalk has a bunch of forums, when I was on there, there werent many groups. Now everybody is on there. I have about 6 rc trucks and cars just collecting dust as well as my helimax sq-1 and my ar drone. Maybe I need to break the at drone back out and gibe her a whirl. They really are fun. You must like nitro better than batteries I take it as you said you plan on getting a gas powered heli, I like the batts better. They aren't expensive these days and in the end will have less issues, less cost, and way more "play time". This has been my experience with nitro anyway. Always having to tune the darn things got old to me. Once a good electric heli is dialed in you need nothing more than fresh battery packs to keep flying. At any rate have fun and enjoy man. If you learn to fly those little quads around well, you shouldn't have much issue with using larger ones at all. Once you feel you are getting better, turn the expos up and start doing some faster flying. Anyway I'm sure you know this. Again enjoy, you got me thinking about them now lol. Good day.
