Excellent points Smokey. Thanks for offering your expertise on the topic. I didn't really think about it right away, but like you said, if I get a helicopter from an established hobby store versus one of those mall kiosks, I'll have a place I can go back all year 'round for advice, parts and upgrades.
Yeah, don't buy junk, you won't be happy. E-Flite and Align are going to be the two biggest ones to look at but there are others that make nice stuff and have parts that are easy to get.
