No problem crash...anytime and good luck with it.
Mine is still all torn down and ready for the Slo Max motors and heatsinks to be installed. I should have it back in the air soon myself.
It will take about 10 days to get your stuff from China

Dealing with Terence was a good experience,nine days from the day i ordered i had the parts.i took some time off flying for a while.when the heli fell from the sky did i inspect it to see why?OH HECK NO you see i was showing it off to a couple of buddys so i picked it right up and tried to take off thats when the real damage happened.you know i think i know helis fly because their machines not because their magic what was i think in?i guess the kid in me came out.but thats what i like about this hobby i get such a kick out of watching a helicopter fly,not always a goodthing to be mesmerized when you are in control if you know what i mean.hey there Xrayted get your new motors yet?you know suddenly i'm in the mood to fly,catch you all latter i'm going to go

Sorry to hear you smashed her all up Crash. Im on the road this week but will have the Slo Maxes all installed this weekend. Ive had all the parts for a while but have been distracted with one of my single rotors for a couple weeks.
iIl post back with the results as soon as I can.

Yes...Terrence at Chinese Jade has great service and is the only Chinese supplier I trust. He will be in contact with you via e-mail immediately and his shipping is only 5 bucks to anywhere. He will also deal personally with you if anything is wrong.
It takes about 10 days or less for me to get my orders to the U.S. from him and much less for the guys over the pond

I was one of the first to get one when no U.S vendors had it so there are probably many more choices Stateside now rather than China as a source.
Good info for spares

Well I finally had the time today to install my Slo Max 300's on the 38. The heli flew great....for about two minutes!! The power difference was very noticeable (I could hover at mid stick) but the motors just draw too many amps for the stock ESC/mixer and it caught fire.
Well, its back to stock I guess and I will just be happy with the better and cooler battery I am using.
BTW I tried a couple of pinion combis and still its too much for the stock electronics.
