Am I moving to fast??

[HBJ069]

Hello all, I am really a newbie to the serious flying world, I bought one of those wal mart Helis a couple of years ago and got bored real quick (it was to easy) and I gave it too my kids. Then a buddy had a Llama 400d (boring) I saw a friend fly a Msr in November 2010 so I picked one up on my way to Texas. Two days in the Hotel room and I was hooked, Bought a CP+ and a SR from a guy while in Texas, I flew/crashed/built/flew them quickly but still needed more, Today, I have 9 birds in different levels and my most recent is a Align Trex 450 pro with a Jazz 40HV and scorpion 1630 kv motor. This thing is amazing!!! on 6s 1300mah outrage packs It will rocket up in the sky with no struggle and can hold a 3200 rpm headspeed and still get 8 to 10 mins of hard flight. It has kbdd tail blades and the stock gyro Align 750 (getting upgraded to a 520 today). Out of the box I am able to Hover and do FF with no problem, I absolutely love this bird. My question is, Should I stop here and play or keep moving forward?

As a guy in my flying club says, "It's a hobby. If you're having fun, you're doing it right!" And it looks to me like you're having a lot of fun.

True that looking at you sig you have a lot of birds sell the ones you dont use, if it where me I would only keep Align pro sell the rest and get a Blade MCPX to replace the SR and a 700 if you can afford it, big helis are so cool.

But I think crashmore summed it up perfectly, as long as you still have money to feed the kids your good to go

Your question:

Makes it sound as if getting a bigger heli is moving up. If you can competently fly a 450 Pro, you have arrived! Congratulations !

I fly my 450 Pro as a warm up machine because after flying a 450 for a few flights a 700 is easy! Its not a matter of moving forward, the big stuff is easier, from here on out it is just what your budget can tolerate.

Interesting, Think I will sell off the udders and concentrate on the 450 pro while building a bigger Heli in the near future
