Noel Leeming currently has these for $159 down from $179.
If you have one, are they quite durable, and what is the flying time like?
Or if you have another model of RC Helicopter, what is it, how much was it and flying time etc?

I sell lots of stuff for electronic enthusiasts...
TheUngeek: I have a Esky Honeybee which is sooooo hard to fly!
However that one you are looking at looks like a contra rotating blade design so will be a heck of a lot more stable.
First thing you need to check is is how easy is it to get parts for. 2nd thing is how cheap are the parts? Because you WILL break things. So check out model shops and online model shops for parts.
If that doesn't stack up, I recommend looking at Esky models. They are an establised brand and parts are easy and cheap to get hold of.
Jaxson: It's in pieces a day later after an unfortunate collision and I'm off to the model shop soon to hunt down a spare plastic gear part that's stripped itself....
Actually, looking around, I'd say my one is this one:
From Jaycar
Cynic: I have two RC helis
Syma S105 - great fun indoors
Walkera HM4F200LM - 3D (flies upside down) really stable but not cheap !
Excellent fun and a great way to pass the time.
semigeek: I have been wondering about disconnecting the flashing red and blue LED on the 105 to see if I can get longer flying time from the battery.

Did you buy the heli's from the sites linked to? I have been wondering about disconnecting the flashing red and blue LED on the 105 to see if I can get longer flying time from the battery.
Also, thinking about the Honeybee CP3 or V2. If I got the CP3 I would have to put the training kit on it. Have you had any experience with the CP3?
