Hi again:
Could those of you living in the US and NOT close to a hobby shop please
give me some pointers as to where to buy? Tower Hobby has almost no helis,
but they have radio gear. Since my eye is on the Robbe Cuatro, I'm thinking
of buying from Robbe USA, via phone. Any input, as always, is greatly
appreciated.
Thanks,
Harald

I've had good experiences with both Heli-Proz (Montana) and Rick's RC
(Corpus Christi). At the moment Heli-Proz is out of stock on the Cuatro,
and it doesn't look like Rick's carries it (but they do carry 3 other Robbe
machines).

To read other opinions, go to www.rcuniverse.com and search for "Heliproz
vs. Heli-World" and you'll see a lot of good things said about both
Heli-Proz and Rick's.

www.ronlund.com (Rick's)
