I chose the Helix mainly for its integration and simplicity. With everything integrated, the build will be a lot simpler. Everything else would be classic stuff: sefm's, red bottoms, and a triumph antenna.
Currently, I'm debating on building this, a garuda(https://rotorbuilds.com/build/1809), or a hyphy(https://rotorbuilds.com/build/1806).
Being a noob, which one balances speed, simplicity, and durability the best?
