| I'm thinking of buying an electric heli and have been looking at two in particular, the zoom and the hornet 2. Anyone had any experience of either of these. There is a guy on ebay selling zoom / zap with all electrics for £235, he seems to have a lot of positive feedback. |

They both are good Helo's but, I like the Hornet 2 ... Very easy to fly and Lots of Upgrade Parts available so you can turn it into a great 3D machine if you want too .... I turned mine into a BK117 Super Scaler ... well, Micro Scaler Lots of Fun when the weather is bad ... I fly in my living room! _________________ " From Simple minds come simple Ideas"
