Check to see if all of the wires are connected.

You can write about your RC heli adventures. :-)

I was just reading this over and noticed the last line...something that did not register before...did you read my previous car stories? I will gladly come up with something to write about if you like...

Wow, these are serious and costly toys!

I have a $300 Hirobo SRB Quark, and I thought that was a bit steep. Of course, it's my first such toy, so I suppose if I got really into it I would be making you an offer instead of being surprised!

You start with a $50 toy. Then you go for $300 one, then you play with the big boys and can spend several thousand on one helicopter. :tup: It can be an endless money pit, just like modding a car. LOL.

Yeah I know what you ^^^ mean I'm trying to get rid of the heli and back out of one the camera and the car are too much... I can't really afford it... wish I knew that before I dove in...

A set of 600mm blades alone are $100 +/- $15
