that thing is huge; have you flown it yet? How does it handle? I have the slightly smaller version that uses a 2S 1000mah instead of the 3S that yours uses; my rotor diameter is also slightly smaller at 18" and also uses two a bit smaller motors (370).

Just dont forget shipping costs GD! It may only cost 79$ for the heli, but it is 31$ Air(43$ EMS) for shipping to the US.
So you get pretty close to the BH price - and despite all the bad things you can read about BH, should there be anything wrong with the bird and you have to ship it to China, the 20$ you save evaporate rather quickly ... ... and as always: Just my 2Cents ... |

And I certainly respect your tendency to favor HK ... ... the only thing I can say is this: I only dealt with BH once (I ordered 3 identical 3ch helis - and to of them were defect, the 3rd one died after on flight ...). I emailed them and - yes, it wasn't easy, but it worked - I got them to take the helis back and refund my money (full amount). But I had to pay sending the helis back to cali. However, contrary to what many people on here report, my personal experience with BH is (better was) clearly positive!! Further, I don't know how often you already sent packages to China - but from personal experience I can tell you this gets pretty quick pretty expensive! And to send this particular heli back, the weight is around 5lbs and the box is really big ... Based on these two facts the shipping charge (even with USPS) would be breathtaking (go to your post office and check with them ...). I doubt HK would just send you a replacement heli - and I am pretty sure you would have to pay for sending your old one to china AND also for them sending you a new one ... The only thing I am saying is that it is not utterly recommendable to ONLY look at the price of the heli, but that there are more things where taking them into account can come in handy Of course it is everyones own to decide where they order their stuff from, as far as I am concerned I learned over the last few years that the bigger the box and the more it weighs, the more sense it makes to buy "local", even if that is slightly more expensive on the first look... |
