so far i think its only nitro helicopters
Man after watching some of those crash videos I dont think I would want to invest that kinda money into helis. Some of those things were completely totaled after the crash.
I've seen some cars/trucks get pretty messed up from crashes as well. It's get very expensive when stuff goes very wrong.
Imagine losing signal and your truck goes full throttle, with no control. I know 2 people that it happened to. With the money invested in our truck/cars, wrecking those can cost as much as wrecking a heli easily.

First thing installed on my truck, Venom Failsafe
.
My brother in law had to chase his truck through a field by his house and I didnt want to have to do the same so I got the failsafe.
I was surprised to learn that if you fly anything at an r/c airfield, you have to carry insurance on it. Thats for just incase you lose control and a plane/heli hits something or someone.

I'd be more worried about hitting someone with a heli, I've seen injuries from runaway helicopters, and they're not pretty.
I'll join the AMA one of these days.
Well Jack & Tune, what is the update our your flying skills? Getting better? Break anymore parts?
My flying skills? I'd be much better if the heli would leave the ground
.
Leaving the ground would make FLYING a little easier... LOL
with the simulator that I bought, I can get the helicoter off the ground, but I have trouble "steering" it, for lack of a better term. Once the 'copter goes off in once direction, i can't seem to get it back.
my txt-1 flys as well as dimos heli
hahaha!!!!!
I can hover for only a few seconds. I really haven't put any flight time into it lately, though.
