Posted: Mon Nov 09, 2015 1:49 amWhere you plan to fly is probably the most overlooked aspect when people buy their helicopters Syma X5SW for the first time. The reason is that usually people want to go for the "cool" helicopter that is as big as their budget could afford. Well, that is great if you are primarily an outdoor flier, but that makes absolutely no sense if you would end up flying indoor most of the time. If flying inside the comfort of your house is your cup of tea, then obviously getting a smaller helicopter is more logical.
- Know how committed you plan to be.
The level of commitment you plan to be with this hobby is one of the most decisive factors when it comes to choosing the type of helicopter to buy. A lot of people spend a lot of money on an expensive standard size helicopter only to find out later that they only have one or two hours a week to play around with it - which is not enough time to be a competent enough pilot to fly such models enjoyably. So this is what a lot of old hand hobbyist would recommend: If you plan to fly just for fun after work or casually on the weekends, then a co-axial model would be best.
On the other hand, if you plan to delve full-steam ahead into the hobby, fly your helicopter every chance you get, and maybe even fly competitively later on, then by all means get those expensive models right off the bat.
- Choose a model where service and parts are available.
