    With a budget of S$600,

    1) Get a 2nd hand trex wif all electronics in, abt S$400 - 500

    2) Get a 2nd hand 6ch Tx, abt S$100 - 200

    Thats the best option.


    Otherwise, get the Honey Bee FP n train hard on it.

      Trex..Trex..Trex..

      Ya ya,...I second Adrianli's proposal. Trex is the way to go. A second hand optic 6 (<<$180 ) would be a good choice to start with Trex 450XL.

      This heli will take you a long way.

        Yup.. Optic 6 would be a good 2nd hand TX. Can get it usually at $180.

        For electric, like they said, t-rex 2nd hand would be good.

        If you're intending to go nitro, you can get a 2nd hand Raptor 30 V1 if you can find one.

        Both nitro and electric has its pros and cons.. can do a search on the forums

              So true, don't be mistaken by the initial cost. The running cost can also become high.

              In the last 4.5 months, I have spend a total of $3.3K on this little heil.... AND ..the amount is growing by the days

                    Hi black_dice,

                    You can try to post a WTB thread on the market place. Should get some response, all the best!
