| 30 vs. 60I think the 30 is better for the "newbie" I love the way the 30 learner flys. The G-10 frame parts are very strong, and I do mean very strong. So the Sport 50, 60 or the 30 Learner are a very good value for the money. The metal is a big jump in cost, and the G-10 will take all the hard landings I have dished out and I have not broken a G-10 part. That was 80 hours of flight time and 4 crashes. Glass blades are better for flight and there are $30 a pair products that work well, much better than wood. I also think you should have DS811's and GY401/9253 servos. I think the best part about the 30 Learner, Sport 50 & 60 is all the metal parts, and very very few upgrades you need. They are in the kit when you buy this heli......great concept. I buy a new heli and don't have to spend money on bearings and other major parts.  I do like that idea. |
My (learned)recommendations would be to get the carbon kit, but also get their plastic replacement tail fins kit (I think it was $8.00 vs. $35 for carbon ones), and I'm currently looking around for a polyproplene canopy I can use for "playing and learning purposes". The glass ones are $65.00 every time you put one into the ground (not to mention whatever you've got into your paint job).
