What would you pick?
And why?
In all honesty, I would stay away from the Venture. They are a downfall from an otherwise great heli manufacturer. They need a lot of stuff to fly correctly out of the box, namely a new set of grips and a spindle (from an ergo or voyager) The tail system isn't the best, and I wasn't particularly impressed with the frame layout.
I wouldn't overlook the Sceadu Evo 50, it needs no upgrades to fly well and is very competitively priced.
The raptor is popular and the Trex is the "next big thing" and either of them should work fine as well.
I wish I didn't have to Dog the JR offering, but like I said, they dropped the ball.

I am a JR guy, I have a Venture 50, stay away from that one. If you dont want to wait for the new Vibe 50, get a 600N. I watched a guy at our club fly his T Rex 600 nitro and that thing was amazing.
If prices for parts for the new Vibe are going to be outrageous, then I will make the switch to Align, reasonable prices quality parts.
My 2 cents

Thats a great idea, except that you can't buy it for 6 months or so.
