small rc helicopter review image
Jack
I have flown co- axial 4 channel helis before and i have a sense of orientation and stick movements but i have never flown a 6 channel heli. Some people are saying 450 is better because they are smaller and cost less to repair but others are saying 500 is more stable due to the size. What size would be best for me to have enough stability but also be able to experiment a little with the 6 channel function?
Answer
I have limited experience with 500's, having only flown one a couple of times. I personally did not find it to be more stable than my T-Rex 450. But that may have more to do with the fact that the 500 needed a bit of tweaking. Physics states that larger is more stable, but quality will play a huge role in how well a particular bird will fly. The 500 you are considering is a T-Rex clone, and you are going to need to replace the head in order to be able to fly well. All clones have their problems, and I've always believed that if you just spend a little more to get the real thing you will be better off in the end. If you really must get the clone over the real thing, be sure to read this review:

Short answer: bigger is more stable and costs more to repair. I say go as big as you can afford. Your wallet may have to answer this one.

The Best RC Helicopters/airplanes?
N N
Ok, My husband absolutely loves RC Helicopters (small ones), but he isn't very much experienced, he just likes to fly them around, nothing else. I want to buy him a really nice one for xmas but everytime I buy him one it stops working after a few weeks, or doesn't fly high enough, or just don't stay up. Does anyone know of any good brands, that will work good..any recommendations?

Consider ALL RC flying models "expendable" . . that is just the nature of the hobby.
