May dad gave me an Air Hogs Reflex helicopter several years ago, and I flew it until it literally refused to move.  The little coaxial took a beating, and a fair share of mods, before it finally gave up.

For reference, here's what it should look like:






And here's mine when it finally quit.  Stripped of everything that is not absolutely critical to fly, and with several modifications, the little craft is actually quite nimble.





Alas, with this bird flying no more, it was time for an upgrade.  After much research and deliberation, I ordered an E-Flight Blade 120 SR.  This little chopper is the perfect first step into the challenging world of remote control helicoptery (is that a word?).  More on the 120 SR soon.
