At $469.99 (discounted from $599), Donovan's has a good price on the Blade 400. I believe (but could be wrong) that if you mention this video, you will get free shipping too. Donovan's service alone is worth it. This is PART I of my Blade 400 experience.This is definitely not a beginner's helicopter. Let's take a look at it. Remember this....Any Collective Pitch (CP) helicopter is quite a handful. If you want to learn on one, make sure to fly a realistic simulator first. The one voted best is the Aerofly Professional Deluxe. None of my airplane friends can fly the cp helicopters on my Aerofly sim very long. They always fly away and since they do not know how to hover, crash! It is as real as it gets and just like the real thing. If you can't fly the Simulator, then forget the real thing unless you have lots of money for parts and lots of time and patience. Then memorize my 9 helicopter tips, and don't deviate from them. It also helps to have some coordination too, because you have to move both sticks in all directions all the time. There is never a dead moment.But on the other hand, once you got it, you will love it.Remember 96% of the people who try to fly helicopters, give up after a few crashes, and WE ALL CRASH!Enjoy the video and thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching. Full size Locos are pretty hard to fly though! LOL Have you seen my Steam locomotive videos yet? You may like the one called "Model A chases train" and "The best steam locomotive video". Thanks again for your comments.

Thanks for this review. As a newcomer to helis I found it facinating & very easy to follow. I'm more used to full size steam locos.Hugh the Railmon

Thanks very much. Good luck with the Falcon and if you haven't gotten my "9 heli fight tips and rules of thumb, let me know, and I will pm them to you, if you like.

Now I got it. Over 300 PMs and messages a day, my mind misses sometimes.

btw - Great Review, thanks for taking out time.I recently purchased a Falcon 40 as my first heli. I have had the Real Flight G4 Simulator for approximately 7 months. I recently got a new job and NOW will have time to dedicate to this new hobby.

NightFlyyer, I totally agree. Sorry to sound so harsh, I just meant that what the local hobby store said could have been a bit more clear.14cyproit14 local hobby store said "the helicopter can NOT kill anyone..." That statement sounds false. But it is agreed caution is required as with any thing else.
NightFlyyer (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
What sounds false? OF course helis require caution....so do lawnmowers, but some people still cut their fingers and hands off with them.
