Finally found a helicopter that's a reasonable price with quad capabilities. Love my DJI quads and now I'm adding this to my fleet:

Will arrive later this month, between the 14th and 25th, will report more once I have it 😀
 
I still have a Corona Helicopter that I purchased a couple of decades ago. **** scary if you’re not very careful as it has some very large heli blades. It was billed as a crash proof because the blades would fold if it hit something. I recently turn in the batteries to a recycle center as it’s been too long to trust the batteries to charge. It was a lot of fun and I’m glad I bought it for the experience, but it now sits on my RC shelf. Be careful, just a friendly reminder of the danger it can pose.

The rotor width is 80 cm (2.62 feet) so it's a decent size aircraft and definitely dangerous. Weighs 2.5 kgs (5.5 lbs) with battery so ya, definitely the heaviest aircraft I have flown. Previous was my P3P at 1.2 kgs and that was a tank lol. I'm really looking forward to it's arrival and testing it out.

I primarily fly 2 meter RC pattern planes powered by YS140L four stroke glow fuel although have several electrics too. The only Heli I've ever owned was back in the 80's, a 25cc gas powered Bell 47g, quite a large monster.
