Hi all!
i´m a total "noob" to everything whit heli.
now i´m wondering about to buy an caliber 3...
anyone that can tell me a little about it? how it flies and spareparts...is there anything that i should know about,like if there is any problems whit it. parts that maybe is´nt "top of the line" in it and etc...

or should i go for the caliber 5?

thanks!!

C5 would be cheaper in the long run if your interested in scale and/or 3D. Problem is that the european distributor doesn't have all spares in stock so if you crash you might be waiting for spares for weeks....

Its a higher quality helicopter then a raptor.

finally i have decided :D
in saturday I will get my "bird"+radioequipment.
my shoplist looks a little like this...

kyosho caliber 5
gy401+s9254
Futaba F7C
futaba 4*s3050(alt 4*3010)

and a lot of other things..starter...fuelpump...etc,etc...

what do you think about this? is it a wisw choice?
maybe i will change the Futaba F7C for an Futaba F9C super...IF i have the money for it... :roll:

(sorry for my bad english...but have swedes ever been good at talking or writing in english... :roll: :lol: )
