Bob
I just ordered a Syma S108. They look very fun and cooler than the S107. What your opinion? Should I have bought the S107 for $22 or the S108 for $30?
Thanks God Bless.
Answer
i have never heard of this model however after looking up the model i can tell you this they are both mini / micro helicopters.
these micro helicopters are ones that are marketed towards people who are new and or just want a cheap helicopter to try out the hobby without sinking much cash on a helicopter. its also smaller and can be used in small spaces compared to full size helicopters. this model should be easy to fly due to its design.
in terms of s 107 vs s 108 they are pretty much the same and you would not see much difference.
the 107 has a larger battery though and could fly for a few minutes longer.
i would say the s108 is a good choice if your only spending like $30
is this your first helicopter?
if its your first helicopter and later your interested in something more challenging or larger you could go with something like what i did for my first RC helicopter that was above the lower entry level. if your interested in something priced a little higher but could perform better.
this is what i did with my first helicopter.
I own a thunder tiger mini titan e325 3d its electric and i found it easy to assemble( having never done it before)
i liked it and with help learned to fly using it.
you can find this helicopter at many sites
tower hobbies is a good place to buy from

theirs lots of other places you could buy from too.
i would go with electric to start off. gas can be more complicated.
word of advice don't just buy the helicopter find someone willing to teach you how to do it without destroying it.
sometimes they can even help you set it up.
local RC clubs may be able to help you get more info on the hobby.
trust me get help learning so that you don't crash.
its a great hobby and once you learn can be great fun!
so the 107 and 108 are not to different. i wo

Answer
sorry but your out of luck on this one
gas powered RC helicopters are generally $750+
their also not small in scale and can be very tempermental
but most are multichannel usually 3-4
you do have the advantage of RC heli experience so you won't need the beginners stand
check out your local RC shop and ask around you might get lucky and find someone willing to sell you theirs
