Ordered my first RC helicopter today

As I'm a total novice, I've opted for a simple 3-channel helicopter with standard aerial. None of that 2.4Ghz stuff just yet, and until I'm happy controlling a 3-channel, 4 is out of the question. Should arrive in a few days, so I'll get some practise in and show it off when it gets here, assuming I can fly it! Anyone else into RC helicopters? Anyone got any hobby-level gear? If I properly get into this and have the skills needed, I'll look at a higher-power, 3D chopper.

  • I actually used to regularly fly RC gas powered airplanes. I was also really good with helis on the G3 RC simulator, but I liked planes more. I stopped flying them mostly because I'm flying real airplanes now, and that takes up both my time and my money. Hell, gas in Chicago can cost $8 a gallon for 100LL. I get it for 6 but it's still expensive. I'm also into amateur radio which can be a bit pricey too.
