What type of RC Helicopter is right for me?
What type of RC Helicopter is right for me? i have never owned on rc helicopter but i would like to buy on i want to spend under 200$ on it the lower the better. I would also like to be able to add a micro camera on it as well ( like this one http://www.greennet.ca/ebay/cam/d.jpg) i need some thing that has good range and good speed and is durable. Also wondering if i should buy online on in store and if online some good places. And just wondering about channels what are they and how many do i need or want? Thank You
You need to research this, because I don't think you quite understand what you're trying to accomplish.
Helicopters have a very steep learning curve. Fixed-wing aircraft want to fly. Helicopters want to crash.

The logical answer to your question appears to be the cheapest model that meets the requirements you expect of it!
And I would recommend you buy in-store, where you can talk to someone specialising in this range.

The cx2 is the one i started out on. it is an easy flyer and is really steady. I think the cx2 cost like 180 where the cx3 costs around 200 or so. That is the best choice, eflite always pulls through.
