| I use a Spektrum 6000 receiver. It's very small and light. I use ThunderPower 1320 mah LiPo's on all my "Blade-sized" helis. The HDX300 needs the weight in the nose to balance correctly. If I have to add weight, it's going to be useful weight like a LiPo pack.
As for 450-sized helis, I fly my T-Rex 450SE either on my own property or at a local sports complex (completely empty, except for myself and my safety spotter).
Oh, that opens up another thought. When flying, a second set of eyes are very valuable not only to the safety of your heli, but to those that might be around you.
