Im considering buying a micro heli. but I don't want junk.
saw some video on the MSR. It looks good, but, is there a model that has the upgrades on it already? is there upgrades for this size heli ?
my questions may sound stupid or you guys may tell me to read this section to figure it out for myself. but I want to buy something soon, maybe today.
I normally fly 450 size and bigger, but need to work on my nose in skills during the winter months in my large room in the house.
thanks

just to update. I ended up buying a Novus CP. already flew 1 full pack. I really like this heli. but think it won't be long before I upgrade to the Novus N125CP.
I hope that they will offer a Heli only kit. Because I think this transmitter should work with it.

Yes there are upgrades for sub-micro helis. Also check out the Walkeras range of sub-micros like CB100 & 4#3B - cheaper than the msr. CB100 is self stabilized 4#3B is not.

after about 20 battery packs of flight, I wore this heli out. upgraded all connectors to micro deans, the main motor gets smoking hot, and maybe the electronics get too hot, the tail starts to have a mind of it's own after in the air for about 1 minute, gear mesh is good, just seems like I killed the motors.
going to order a 4g6 in the next few days. gota drop big $ for a good one.
I enjoy fighting the heli and don't want one that can fly it's self. It would be nice if it could hold up to about 6 full packs of flying every night.
Took the Novus CP inverted today, and could not climb out. Had to make alot of transmitter adjustments before that was even tempted.
I don't understand why all new models don't come with brushless motors, guess they just have to clear the junk out of the warehouses.

Just one word: Walkera.
