    Hello everyone. I've been here a few weeks, but neglected the intro. I'm in Oklahoma City, I've been flying for a little over a year now. I started on a Syma micro-chinook and have been progressively hooked ever since. Ive been through a few coaxial heli's, such as Syma S107G (CX w/mods), Syma S033G(w/mods, large problematic but durable coaxial that likes to burn-up its 380 main motors)..... well, after about 6 or 7 months I finally got bored with CX and bought a Blade 120SR (FP/FB) and flew it for a few months with reasonable success, tail booms, tail rotors, and main blades replaced numerous times... while still going through hell with the dreaded S033G. Having started reading this and other heli-forums, I realized I may have made a mistake in buying the 120SR (FP/FB) after discovering the Blade Nano CPx, and confirmed my mistake after actually buying and flying my Nano CPx. Now, after a few weeks of CP flying, I almost can't stand to fly the 120SR because the response feels so "mushy" compared to the Nano. My next heli will definitely be CP/FBL, but not until I've mastered the Nano.

      ahhh Oklahoma.... nearly married a chick from Oklahoma.... God she was hot.
      Spent 6 months there back in the late 90's. Too bad I hadn't discovered the joy's of RC Helis back then. Plenty of room to fly in That part of America.
      Except in tornado season perhaps.

      Welcome Beaver!!!

      I can say this forum seems to be more interactive than others, and I'm not just talking to myself here. Glad to be here.:cool:

      You know what I say when people tell ask me if I'm talking to myself? I always say... 'yep.. best conversation I've had all day'... or some variation...

      So never be afraid to talk to yourself...

      I don't mind talking to myself at all @Manyc, but sometimes a 3rd opinion can be useful.o_O

      Talking to yourself is not an issue, but if you start to reply there may be a problem.

      Robin didn't live far from me. It's so sad that he ended his life.
