LOL!

I wish that there was no music in it though. When Alan studders his aileron sticks, it makes the heli blades really pop and that sounds sick!

I mentioned in the other post those were not my photos.

Looks like I gotta go with HS-225's. Anyone seen super duper ridiculously cheap deals on these guys with free shipping? Maybe even a Hobby King USA warehouse substitute. I need to get a motor too so I'd love to get it all in one place if possible.

I haven't used my credit card in years. It's starting to beg for mercy.......

Joe

Holy cow! After doing a quick Hobby King search for HS-225 alternatives and reading reviews forget them! I'll stick with the real thing! I'm hoping there will be some black Friday servo deals.

Joe

Unless Hobby King has a comparable servo with a DECENT review it looks like Tower Hobbies has the best deal right now. $17.99 each for BB servos. Use Code 011P9 and get an extra $10.00 off total order until 12/31/10.

I'll wait to see if anyone can come up with a better deal than this before I make my order. I don't think it can be beat though......

Joe

Oops! Here's the link to Tower for the HS-225 BB'S... Don't forget Code 011P9 if you make a $50.00+ order to save an additional $10.00.

wow thanx for the heads up, great deal!!!!just got 3 for $48 shipped

If you look for something at Xheli, tomorrow they always have a sale. Only issue might be stock. I waited till friday, saw the great deal but by the time they went to pull stock, it was out.

just lookin at the valcano 60 A ESC at hobbypartz for a 500 heli and it sez no BEC, is that gonna be a problem, if so why?

if you get the opto ESC you will need one of these to power your electronics

I always use one, the switch helps protect the electronics from the BIG spark.

This ESC has a BEC built in

Hey guys. The plastic version is on Black Friday sale right now for $60.00! If I had the extra money I'd grab one just to use for parts.

Joe

Saw that, the plastic version is a nice heli, for $60 free shipping it is a steal, the EXI Pro belt is a good deal too, just finished up my 450 Pro TT and it is a NICE heli.... wish I had $130
