Hehe... Yeah, I have the same issue, airparks are hard to find. We have 
some nice open areas around here though that would be ideal for flying 
the smaller helicopters.

I've actually just pulled the trigger on a 400 size electric. The indoor 
one is neat, but now I want more :D  I have a feeling I'll have a bit 
more of a learning curve with this one, though, the coaxial is very tame 
in how it responds to controls, the one I'll be getting by the end of 
the week is fully aerobatic, so will tilt completely over, given enough 
input on the cyclic control.

Yeah, I've got a few hobbies going. :D Believe it or not, this one so 
far is cheaper than my other hobby. I've spent less total so far on RC 
gear, than I have on camera gear. :D
