Yip first flights was cool and scary,those little symas buzzing round the lounge and then big steps outside above the roof ,used to land and be shaking,then inherit a large OS nitro helicopter which nearly kill me,new nothing,7 channel Jr remote (mosquitoes is the heli) servo reversed on start with throttle open full,had to stand on rear to break iner belt drive so I could lie on ground and hold fuel line shut till rotors stop turning,wow what a rush,44inch hardwood blades,felt very alive and took about a week to stop shaking,did fly it once but kept blowing head gasket,oh do I have respect for spinning props and the fascination got me hooked
