I love thunder tigers, you make me want a big one. My little mini titan v1 is a solid flier. Raptors are solid helis and a great choice no matter what your skill level is.

I saw that, but that was a couple of months ago. He said it was a must sell, and I thought It would surely be gone by now. Plus, If I was going to get another nitro, It would have to a really smokin' deal on something used. I wouldn't think of lowballing him but that's a little too expensive for me right now.
Don't get me wrong, it's a really good deal, just a little out of the budget. I'm still trying to get that Hirobo in the air. I've got spare parts on order, and I like to have them before I fly. Plus I need all the field box stuff. So I've got my funds tied up pretty tight. I just crashed my 600e, and the one way bearing went on my 425. ( I put a 17t pinion on the 50t front gear, hovered for 10 seconds and smoked the one way and melted the gear... ooops!).
Anyway, that's a nice heli you've built.

That is one of the nicest heli's I have seen. Very nice paint. I would be afraid to fly it, it would just set on my shelf and look good. |
