kit helicopter
I've flown the Exec (with Jellycopter) and the R22.
try both if you are serious about buying a 2 seat helicopter.
My advice: if your passion is engineering and you like being in a workshop environment, then the Exec is ideal. If your passion is flying on a budget, then the R22 is ideal.
One way to get objective facts - for the UK- is to find out how many Execs have been registered, and how many are flying, and how many hours they fly.
