lolThey had to be the best blades ever, you could bounce that heli off of the walls and the blades would just spring right back into shape | ||||||||||||||||||

I mainly fly IMAC but once every couple of months I'll drag out my old Ergo 50 type 2 and rip around the sky to let of some steam. I started flying in in 92-93 I think and got my first heli in 99(Ergo 30) and concentrated on it for 2-3 years. Slowly upgraded it to become the 50 type 2 but only fly on the odd occasion. It's so old now most of the bolts are heavily rusted Heli Hovering006.JPGc1e6.jpg

Used to fly a Raptor 50. Have done 6 loops and 1 roll... That's about it. Now I just do spot landings with a BCP in the house. Keeps me happy when I can't get to the field to fly something I can handle.

I am fairly new to this hobby and started with airplanes and have 2 foamies 2 glows and a 27% H9 extra 260 DA powered gasser now and for some reason I bought a Trex 450se and basically flew the sim for a week and started flying the thing but mostly it is for something to fly in my driveway, and I still just fly tail in and drive around in front of my house ......But I do have one also....

i currently have CRAPTOR 50. it has a lot of bling on it. i kept spending money on it because i thought it would make it a good heli. wrong. i bought a synergy 90. now thats a good heli. been flying heli's for about a year and yes they are fun.
