I have a few helicopters (tons of other RC stuff too), but a friend / biz-associate with a friend (in town for the weekend) stopped by late friday night - they brought a half gallon of Seagrams VO and a half gallon of Tanqueray..... we had a good old time.
the new guy, we'll just call him the professor, brought a Husban X4. I was able to fly it around under a little control, and he showed me some 3D moves that were very interesting.

Husban X4 quad copter: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00CP5NSGG/tvwb-20
Long story short, I have 2 of the V911s here, and an upgrade kit (on a fast food tray, with the good one in pieces)....but I haven't flown them around for nearly a year. I also have a 450-sized heli kit that's in pieces, waiting to be put together, but even after I get it together it'll break super easy and I haven't flown the sim forever either.... (one easy "crash" and the traditional helis require some serious attention from what I understand).
Then I saw the Traxxas LaTrax Alias Quadcopter @ Tower Hobbies.
I just wish my $$$$$$ & energy were both unlimited - is that really too much to ask?
(I ordered the Husban)
