    So whats your favorite sized helicopter and why. What is your favorite brand? Why?

    Mine for 450 size is Mini Prots
    For 700 Size - Goblin
    For 600 size, me thinks log extreme. I nearly had one of these but 5Fidy stole it from me...

      600 for me. Good presence in the air, has plenty of (with the right engine/pipe) power, and does not cost a fortune to repair when Crash HeliGod gets hold of it. ;)
      Favorite brand is TSA.

      I fly a 450-S Protos almost everyday of the week but for me I would have to say the 700 class heli's are my flavour.

      I have been flying a Synergy E7 for almost a year or maybe more and then upgraded to the Synergy E7se. Very happy with the model why?
      1. Great quality
      2. Very nice build
      3. Great lay-out, easy to work on as it is nice and open
      4. Simple design
      5. Very strong in a crash
      6. Massive gears so no stripping in air or crash
      7. love the way it fly's

      The Rave ballistic 700 is my favourite, flies great and has steel tail gears {no stripping them)
      Then would be goblins 700 & 630 very nice.

      450- mini protos because its the only 450 that I actually enjoyed flying
      500- protos cause its the only 500 sized heli Ive flown that has a tail that holds
      600- has to be a tie between the dune and logo because they both fly amazing but the logo breaks to easy and kasamas want to make you quit helis when you crash
      700- E7se cause its super tough and just takes punishment. i have boom striked mine 3 times and never crashed due to the boomstrike

      Wow a boom strike without a crash Min? That is amazing! I have boomstriked a trex 550 v2 without a crash but the blades JUST hit the boom and dented the top. 500 Protos and 450S protos i think are hard to beat as well.

      Crash cost is very important... When a heli costs to much to repair, it creates anxiety when flying it..unless you are Tareq of course. Power is also a bonus. TSA have a good rep but i have never had the chance to fly one ..Yet.
