Default What's a good backyard RC heli?

Never flown a micro or mini heli before and now I'm tempted to buy one so I can fly more often at home or at the park down the street. Just don't want to endangered anybody. But so many different brands and sizes and confused about what would be a good brand and good size heli to fly in my backyard. I have a medium size backyard. Any advise?

Thanks.

depends on the yard size and your skills, but Blade 180 cfx is the current "hotty" on the market. Oxy 3 is the next step up if your yard and skills can handle it

the blade 130x is a great choice for at-home flying, the 180cfx is another nice option but its quite a bit more aggressive/menacing
