If you can't afford flying lessons....my nephew and I can attest...

THIS was a blast and with its bumpers it still flies after we ran it in to all sorts of stuff.  Very forgiving aircraft to learn drone flying on.  And let's face it - at this price it's affordable if it gets stuck in a tall tree or you lose it over water.  Loads of fun go check out its features here: Holy Stone HS170 Predator Mini RC Helicopter Drone 2.4Ghz 6-Axis Gyro 4 Channels Quadcopter Good Choice for Drone Training

Woo-hoo! Rotorway has finally gotten rid of the belt driven tail-rotor design!  It is now shaft driven!  Now I seriously want one of these gorgeous girls as before I would never fly anything with a tail rotor driven by three belts and two pulleys.

Check out their site and this great helicopter you can build yourself below!
