Why is there smoke is it broken !!

[deejsteriser]

@davidek463 This heli burns fuel and has a 2-stroke engine like a chainsaw. All 2-stroke engines require oil to be mixed with the fuel to lubricate it otherwise the engine would seize. The oil vapour is the smoke you see out of the exhaust, just like you would with a 2-stroke chainsaw.

where can you get rtf nitro helis for a good price

[deejsteriser]

@TheRcworld101 Well that depends which country you're in. I will say this though - Heli's are very difficult to fly even when they're running perfectly. When nitro engines run rough, the heli can fall from the sky costing you a lot of money. As such, don't underestimate the value of a local model shop who can help you set it up. It may cost more initially, but the support may save you money.

For the Newb's...I'm not knocking the big birds, but a few things to keep in mind. 1.) Big heli=big danger=flying far away=harder to see=less control. 2.) Big heli's get very floaty and while you focus on cyclic stick it's easy to forget about throttle stick. 3.) Can't fly these in your backyard. If you're really like motocross noise, love to tune, and have a big field go for it. However, I would always recommend a trex450 for newb's even if it's a bit more twitchy. You learn quicker.

@trexinvert Yep, I'll second all of those points.

ohhh....fog creator!

@trexinvert I, on the other hand disagree...the bigger the bird the more stable not as twitchy, slower,easier to see and a bit slower for more reaction time...thats just my opinion,i learned on a rappy 90 and when i flew a blade 400 it was like i was a newbe after a year and 5 mos. thats why i stick with the 50's 90's and logo 600...i do have a heli-max 400 tho,now that i'm a 4 year 3d pilot..thats just my opinion!!! Stay in the air no matter what you fly!!!
