Glad to be hear. I have messed with a few cheap co-axial helis and it's left me want more. So I just put in an order for parts to build a Trex 450 clone. Starting off cheap (only spent $110 incl shipping!) until I get the hang of flying and help swallow replacing parts when I crash.

I wanted to join up with a forum mainly since I have alot of beginner questions that I can't seem to find info on my own. My focus is going be on scale flying. I am a bit on the impatient side so will need some others holding me back with their own experiences.

So if whoever knows their stuff about scale flying, give a shout out and maybe some good links / other forums on the matter. Thanks!

Welcome to the forum. Best thing you can do is visit the various sections of the forum here, ie; 450, scale, Newbies tips and info, Bobs tech room for setup and 101 videos, etc. Then read until your eyes bleed and your brain is about to explode.
You've basically landed at THE best heli info site on the interwebs and it's time to start soaking up the plethora of info available to you here. Read, read, read (and watch videos) and if you don't understand something you've read just start asking questions.
Have fun!
