    I'm using the Stickbanger 710s on my Vibe, once it's back in the air... (long story short - I encountered an electrical short which grounded it, inverted, followed by funky chicken 'cos hold wouldn't work - minimal damage but the parts that died (clutch/bell/main shaft, etc) are disgracefully expensive making me think twice about owning it... it just flies so damn great though!)

    Good luck with yours!

    Yea the big ones are stunning expensive on some parts but they do fly so well.

    think the crash I had will set me back 200 pounds if the boom has to be replaced.

      It won't fly like that, but you could probably straighten it with the right diameter wooden rod, or similar.

      I doubt it, but check that the shaft drive isn't bent too...

                      Okay kind of in shock here....

                      Century UK actually got the parts here today before fast-lads and the century parts were ordered 2nd... Whats going the on world gone mad ?

                      Also Century managed to supply 2 push rods and plastic ball links even though they had sold out. They look new and may of been robed from a kit oh and they didn't charge either for the two rods!

                      While Century seem to do a lot more cheap ready to fly crap at least they still look after the heli flyers

                      It means as today the predator can be rebuilt and maybe if the blades arrive fly...
