Hi,
Welcome to my RC Helicopter page. I wanted to get into helicopters since my
flight in a Bell 206 III Jet Ranger helicopter courtesy of
Blue Canarias Helicopters
in March 2006. This was a birthday present from Max. I did toy with the
idea of learning to fly a real one but the costs and time involved were
prohibitive so decided to get an RC helicopter first. After looking at various
sites and reading forums to get "advice for beginners" it looked like I was
after a quite simple, twin rotor helicopter (twin rotors do not need a tail
rotor so less to worry about as tail strikes are less costly). Ended up buying
an
Esky Lama 2 V3 from heliguy
on the 3rd January 2007. The item arrived next day and I spent some time getting
to grips with the sim. The links below take you to some additional information
about the experience.
