Hi guys, Do any of you armchair heli pilots have a small, simple to fly heli that you've outgrown and would like to move on? - cash money available ;D ). Yes, to save you asking, I've succumbed to temptation - I thought flying one around the house might amuse our 3 cats but Maplins have sold out on the cheapies and a google search proved fruitless (and 'copterless ;D ). Reasonable price + P&P paid for working model, condition not crtical as long as it flies and responds as it should to the RC. TIA, Dave.

No, I'm not offering mine BUT, The one I have is very cheap new; www.toytoyou.com/ia-falcon-xviii-8913-gyro-metal-frame-4-channel-coaxial-radio-rc-helicopter.htmlWith a spare set of blades and basic carraige it comes to €35.62, approx. £29.37. It took me a little while to discover how to get the best out of it but it now flies well and is great fun. Then Ian (Toad) was pleased with 3channel infra red models at poco deniro. Or maybe one of the "Fleet Masters" will come up with something

cj, Thanks for your reply but I'm a tight Yorkshire pensioner (a breed not noted for throwing money around ) and my local Maplins had a choice of two at £29.99. Unfortunately I remember before Christmas they had a bigger choice of 'copters at £14.99 and that was what I was looking for . Ian, if you quote me a price to cover basic cost + P&P I'll reciprocate with my address details . Cheers, Dave.

Hi Alex, All I can say to that is, "Don't judge others by your own standards". ;D ;D Snow on the roof maybe but fire in the hearth and all that . Dave.

Ah, but ...... displays ultimate weapon: - In Rod's Brain Age test the other day I got a score of mid 50s without doing the last one (no mouse, only a scroll pad) - have you got 15 months on that? ner !! . If the answer is yes, I don't want to know!! Dave.
