Need an Ion X2!

[chopperben1]

Guys,

After reading the threads here, I need an Ion X2! (maybe a late Christmas present?!?) Where is a good place to get one as well as all of the electronics and batts required? I'll search the web, but any advice is appreciated. My LHS is very focused on nitro helis, so I'll talk to them as well, but they generally don't have all of the electronics for large electric helis.

Hello chopperben1,
I recomend you try Ricks r/c helicopters,
but you had better be willing to spend between $3500 to $4000 to put one together with all the good stuff!
(not including extra batts.)
Or you can get your X2 directly from Minature aircraft and most everything else, (batts,electronics,speed controllers etc.) from fxaeromodels.com.
I have had good results from both.

Thanks! I'll check them out.

This hobby ain't cheap, but it's worth it!

I thought this price was pretty good. I havent looked much though.

No doubt, thats a good price for the kit, but as i'm sure you already know, thats just for starters.
Its all the other stuff that'l burn your credit cards up.
