If anyone is think of the R44, its pretty good, im not sure who developed this one, but its one of their better ones considering it has some age on it

Yeah I just bought the 300 and the C152 (don't tell Ian about the GA tongue.gif)
I had the demo JF 152 and although its not Carenado standard it's not bad and I don't fly it that often, at these prices they're hard to turn down if there's nothing default available

Yep that's the one I had, for $5 with this two-for-$10 deal you get 16 liveries, that freebie only ships with one. Not sure what other improvements. I really wanted the Schweizer tho so figuired I'd get the 152 addons

Thanks for the link SB
I have the R44 and it's a real sleeper, pleasant surprise every time you remember to fly the thing!
I also already have the Duchess which is a sweetie, otherwise would just do the whole club buy...

I might go for the Tomahawk, always a sucker for a bargain.
Couple of NZ repaints out there too:

No but here's the Tomahawk...
Is there anything I don't have in FS?
Yes! and I suppose it has a place, given many have had their basic NZ flying experience in this little workhorse.



But really, it doesn't have enough poly's to warrant the price any more

Whoops it's raining over at Doug's...

I just purchased the R44 and 300 after much debate (in my head)

Now I will have to set up as a whirlybird smile.gif

And yes Charl, have just over 140 hrs in the Tommy. Going back for a refresh in a week or two smile.gif

The R44 and 300 are really great models and for that price they are a pretty good buy
