They look interesting, anyone fly em? Any tips on a full kit for a beginner under $200?

Looks like a fun hobby, discuss.

Holy FAWK that's some mad skill. My dad flew RC Planes for about 10 years. He never wanted to touch Helicopters because of their cost (a decent kit was $1k back in the mid-90's) and because they're so freaking hard to fly.
