If you are familiar with the RC hobby you know deals pop up all the time and people master a beginner heli like this before long and upgrade to bigger and better. If Chris gets hooked it's only a matter of time before it's back up on here so he can drop major cash on a 3d one! I loved this heli at one time but quit flying it shortly after putting a lot of money into it. I figured the only thing to do was put a lot of money into a bigger better and let someone else get some use out of this one but like always money is my only limitation.
