Default Fantastic weather in Atlanta

The past few days here it's been in the 60's and 70's. Loving it. I'm able to get about 20 minutes of flying every day during lunch. I'm taking advantage of it while it's good. Approaching 60 flights now with 4 crashes. 2 of which I had to make minor repairs. The other two crashes resulted in the linkage popping off the grips. Popped them back on and immediately took off again. Between the sim at night and flying during the day I'm progressing quickly. By the spring I hope to be flying a 500-600 class heli. Any suggestions on what to get. There's a lot to choose from.

For a 500? Protos or Compass, if it were me. The eXo is a thing of beauty. A Protos 380 may be a better stepping stone though, just depends on you.

I was thinking about the Oxy4 if and when it does come out. My next choice or what I'm leaning towards now would be a Protos. I wanted to jump to a 500-600 class but now the more I think about the areas I fly a 450 would be much better. Thanks for the tips.

The weather is still great here. Feels like spring time. Past couple of days we've had record highs. Mid 70s. Shooting for 6 flights today before it gets too dark.
