Hi guys,  

Thought I would share my first real kit made with my small mill and Mach3.

Kregan,
    Hey man that is some pretty impressive work. It looks like you have got that machine really singin'...  I have always wanted an RC copter but I am afraid I would just crash the living hell out of it.  I wonder how much it would cost to build one if you were able to machine the parts for the frame and whatnot as you are. I mean what are the costs of the parts you MUST buy.... Again nice work dude!!  Peace

Pete

Thanks guy,

Pete,  believe it or not this is the easiest way to learn to fly besides a flight sim.

They are controlled just like the larger outdoor helis but very inexpensive to play with.

Second to that is a flight sim like this.

After that a 450 or 500 size heli.

Very nice! I love the pointy edges, it looks kinda stealth. You should do a custom canopy in this style perhaps:
