all-in-second-hand-pakkage

[steve]

Hi,
I would like to start flying with a helicopter. I know it don't gonna be
easy...
On the net I found a second hand starting pakkage.
i contains
-A Helicopter Kalt Baron 30 (never crashed)
-A transmitter Futaba FF6
-and a startbox (whatever that may be)

The total pakkage would cost ?500.
I read that the baron 30 is a good starting helicopter and that he's easy
upgradeble.
Would it be wise to buy it? It seems cheap to me.

the baron is not made any more
so you will not get any spares for it

Don't buy a Baron unless you can GUARANTEE you wont crash or you are sure
you have a readily available source for spares- these are increasingly
difficult to find nowadays, and when they are found, they are usually very
expensive.
The only way to guarantee that you wont crash is don't fly- Unfortunately
crashing is a part of flying- it may not happen too often, but someday it
will happen. Best stick to something a bit more readily available- Shuttle
or Raptor for example- why nnto buy a new one- you will learn 100 times
better if you appreciate how the thing has been built and what all the
various linkages do.

Best of Luck!

Ik veronderstel dat je nederlandstalig bent.
Ik zit met hetzelfde probleem.
Een kennis heeft mij aangeraden uit te kijken naar een Raptor 30.
Goed om te beginnen en ook om 3d mee te vliegen.

steve I went the E-Bay route. While over all i got a good deal on a
JR Venture
JR 662 TX
Futaba 240 gyro
Webra 35 speed

The copter is is great condition but the motor was about 3/4 wore out, and I
have had to send the gyro in twice to be fixed (It worked for three gallons
of fuel before it broke the first time) but I have gotten a TT36 and a CMS
200 heading hold gyro.
