The helicopters are tough. They are very expensive for a nice one.
It will not stay nice long, unless you work your way up from a cheap practice copter. I spent a lot of time on just the launch pad going up and down, a zillion times.

Dan, your comments remind me of the " Dust to Dust" story in the Wallstreet Journal. Hummer vs Prius. (I believe)
The Prius ended up with the bigger energy footprint measuring start to finish.

KingRT.......I hear you, and it still uses fossil fuel on top of all that.

A good simulator is your friend. Before my first heli ever took flight, I practiced on the sim for 6 months... I was however able to do inverted hover on my 3rd real flight.
