I was at the LHS yesterday, the owner was showing me this cute new helicopter from Horizon, right? I'm gonna try and find the video, but, this new one has a cute wrinkle: Aerial combat?? www.horizonhobby.com/Products/Default.aspx?ProdID=FCE2100Apparently so. What I saw was guys flying these, and somehow shooting the other down. From what I saw, you "hit" the other guy, first time, he spins. Second time, spins the other way. Third, collective goes south and he descends pretty quick. I laughed. And here I am wanting to keep mine in the air and now you can shoot someone else down? Go figure! Yeah, I find the video, I'll share.

I just saw those too. If they fly like an MCX rather then the air hogs,which also have combat heli's, then they might be pretty fun.

Those are awesome. They say there made by Force but I think its really made by E-flite. If you look at the parts listing it uses alot of the same parts as the mcx2 and the lipo battery even says E-flite. Imagine if they made the msr like this it would be pretty cool flying around at 30 mph, shooting down other helis. They also have another one in a different color- www.horizonhobby.com/Products/Default.aspx?ProdID=FCE2000#quickSpecs

If they work well I think I've got plenty of kid left in me for a pair.
