How can i make "something" to fly ? like rc helicopter...

Hello , im new here , congrats for the great community.

I want to build "something" i dont know what it will be yet , but i want to make it fly. How can i achieve it ? It would be very light ~< 1/4 kilo maybe less , i thought it would be a great idea to use something like this http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-RC-Timer-BC2836-7-1120KV-Outrunner-Brushless-Motor-/120484242767?pt=Radio_Control_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1c0d6ba54f but i dont know if it will help..

i want to "fly" it to all directions and control it left right backward and forward , up and down.... any ideas ? thanks !

The idea is you make your own - how do you get 150 ?

Aero modelling especially radio control isn't a cheap hobby. Even with a certain amount of DIY - Choppers are even MORE expensive.

Pay attention to what I said earlier, I know i have done this and taught others to do the same.

1. Start with something simple. a 3 channel high fixed wing foam model

2. Learn to fly it well

3. look around at the other models you can get and NQW you can make an informed decision

4. If you jump in at the deep end it will cost a lot, you WILL break a lot and get discouraged.

Buy a quad copter and play with that for a while. You will learn allot from it so you can make your own or you can build off it.
