Has anyone used these? Looks like my blades won't be here in time and since Gohbee is only one state away, if I order them tomorrow I can get them by the weekend.

| I think they are in SC also. Email dave@gohbee.com Tell him you are my bother or enter flying fools discount code. They look very similar to MAH. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge, know what I mean, know what I mean. Can't beat the price either.

| I don't know why I typed SC. I was thinking what it should be called, South New York.

FUBAR, BIG TIME. It really didn't look bad at the field or even today on the bench. Looked like a tail-case, tail-shaft, boom, spindle, fly-bar, blades and 1 landing gear and maybe a main shaft. All the normal stuff, right? WRONG, the more I disassembled the more I found. I am up to $20 shy of a new kit. I didn't have my camera there but others did, I will have to get pics from them. Right now it just looks lke a kit scattered all over my work bench. It was a very dark grey sky, light snow, 15 mph wind. I was working on my new move, Tumbling Circles. I made an imprudent input and the heli went other than where I expected it to go and was silhouetted against the dark sky. By the time I figured out which way it was going and got it straightened out, it was about 3 feet above the highest point in the area, coming down fast. I nailed full pitch but the engine did not have enough power to stop the decent fast enough. It hit once and bounced 3 feet back up in the air and I was able to kill the engine before it hit again. I really hate doing the Floppy Chicken. |
