Need an opinion on the sky lark.

[krisI.925]

Im hoping that I will get a RC heli for Xmas and while looking online if found this great deal for a skylark that comes with everything and its ready to run for only $250 bux. It seems like a great deal but I dont know much about this heli. Would it be better to buy this heli or just get the Fun Piccolo with a basic pico board w/o reciever. Thanx for any help.

skylark is copy of piccolo fun, but others are copy of the skylark.

over at http://www.helihobby.com you can get the Piccolo fun for about the same price of skylark and can be upgraded as much as you please. From what I heard the PF is a exelent heli and is the one I'm looking into.

for about 295+ you can get the PF along with a bunch of nice mods. includes ARF version and all required items to get it up in the air.

I just got a Jabo Micro heli on ebay, which is basically a generic copy of the Feda Dragonfly. I payed 180.00 RTR buy it now, and the seller had 11. Its almost exactly similar to my Piccolo In flying characteristics. Definitly a great buy, and all the micro heli parts from helihobby.com fit. If your interested in the skylark, look into the Aerohawk, the revamped version of it, the same price.
