    In case anyone is unfamilar with my inept photoshop skills, it's NOT photoshop....that's a piece of paper with a bamboo skewer-stick attached with 20-pound monofilament line.

    EXTREMELY stable.....you'll not find a helicopter that is easier to fly or more self-stable then the Hirobo XRB. It's an indoor helicopter, the blades are compressed styrofoam and can't hurt anything or anybody. It runs for about 10-12 minutes on electric/rechargable's. The key to the stability & ease of flying is the dual counter-rotating blades. About $300.

    Today I took it to my kids school, the kids went nuts over it. Lotta fun, found out about it here on F-chat.

    I was in a hobby store today picking up a 1:18 250LM and I saw a very small helecopter, called a Robo something, that claimed to be very easy to fly indoors. It was like $300 or so. Is that the same thing you've got there?

    Not only can't you spel, but since, having consulted with you about trying to grow larger pumpkins for Halloween and discovering you don't know diddley about farming, you ain't no farmer either!!!!!

    When Peter and I decide to assemble and put together an elite F-chat Helicopter task force...you shall not be included in our ranks!

    Oh the shame.........:)
