This little guy was plagued with problems and I just wasn't willing to invest money into it to make it
what it should have been in the first place. My theory is that when you produce a product, it should
be fully capable in it's stock form. You shouldn't have to go spend another $200 or $300 to make it
work right when the kit didn't even cost that much. YES I'll pay more for the original kit if it's built right.
Here are some photo's to look at. |

The most fun I had with this helicopter was making the night blade mod for it. A photo of the mod is below. More detail can be found in the R&D section of this website. |
