here is some helpful advice, yes the raptor is a good starter heli, i've not flown a honeybee but I'm guessing it is electric? Glow fuel heli are a different kettle of fish. Join a flying club and join the BMFA so you have the proper insurance.
and dont stick you fingers up at me young man!

I understand you perfectly Ash, im not a retard, thankyou. You asked the seller what size the heli was and he replied "its a Raptor 30" here is a clue, the 30 is the size of the cylinder capacity, in cubic inches, of the engine. However, the likeyhood that it really is a .30 ci engine in that heli are low, its more likely to be a .39 Thunder Tiger brand engine.

Not neccessarily JON, as he said he bought it off someone and didnt know if it had any mods, so rather than ask the guy the engine size, i thought id just ask plainly for the size of the chopper, i.e rear rotor to nose/fuselage, which he's just done so there thanks!
GTi, dont worry mate everything i own is an impulse buy matey....with regards to u wanting crimbo money, i will see what I can do mate with that....i will definitely let you know in time mate ok

Ash, is that clear enough for you?
yes the raptor is a good starter heli, i've not flown a honeybee but I'm guessing it is electric? Glow fuel heli are a different kettle of fish. Join a flying club and join the BMFA so you have the proper insurance.
And thanks for the advice....but I can perfectly fly petrol helicopters ta.... have been for twelve years now. After giving up and selling everything few years back, last year I bought an esky honey bee which yes is electric, but not really that much different from petrol ones unless your talking the big boys dogs mods expensive fuel heli's, which im sure your more than aware of

Wow... thanks Ash, yep I was talking about the "big boys" Helicopters. You obviously know the square root of squat about them, which is fine, I wasn't actually trying to upset you, but obviously I have. There is a world of difference between one of these:
and one of these:
if you have been flying Radio Controlled helicopters for 12 years, then you would know the difference & wouldn't be making yourself look like an arse.
gti00eater - my apologies for the intrusion into your thread, I am actually interested in you helicopter, could you post some pics for me please?

And yes i know the difference between electric and petrol....but if you have flown an esky you'd be surprised how tight the gap becomes between the both in "style" and "feel"
