Default Uh Oh the Heli Bug

I don't know how I got it but I have the heli Bug. I am even thinking of not getting my next Giant Scale plane so I can buy a few heli. What have I gotten myself into?

I do have one problem that is ruining everything for me. I am having the hardest time programing my T-Rex in my Futaba 7C I know it can be done.

Anyone used a Futaba 7c for their T-Rex?

You have been assimilated, resistance was futile, welcome to the dark side.
There is no cure for the heli bug, the best that you can do to temporarily relieve symptoms is to buy another heli.

Since you are so close, IRCHA is a must attend event for the transformation to be complete.

I believe it can be done with that radio, although I have never set that radio up on a heli.

I have a lot of heli friends. I really like the T-Rex and what it can do, but the problems getting it set right is driving me nuts. I really want to get the NEW T-Rex SE v2. Anyone want to sell me there T-Rex that is setup really well for 3D?

My heli bug is always simmering in the background. I'm constantly going back and forth with them. Right now the electric heli's have got my attention. I'm going to give this mini heli I've got right now a go and if I get a few dozen flights out of it with any type of success the TREX 600 may be in my future this summer.

Electrics are not growing faster anywhere than the heli catagory. I want a 600 size electric, but I can't afford the batteries at the moment.

Trex 600 CAUTION:
It has been determined by multiple tests this weekend that the Trex 600 does not float on a mixture of slushy ice and flood water.

I have the Trex 600, SE, and Logo 10. The 600 is a great flyer and has plenty of juice with the 6S setup, but insane power with 8S and 10S.
