  • New SAB Goblin 500 Sport

    New SAB Goblin 500 Sport on the way. Found a couple of flight videos but can't find any real details yet but looks interesting.

    (Edit) Found some more info on HeliDirect site.

    Available late October

    The new Goblin 500 Sport uses 85% of parts from the old Goblin 500. In fact the new spare part will be only 7 new P/N
    Taking advantage of a strong industrialization of Goblin 500, we reduced the price, further distancing from G570.
    We have changed the design to follow strongly Goblin 380, replaced some parts to reduce weight, and improved weak points of the existing ones. These new features and the new lower price make this kit become very interesting for the market. Moreover, we have added two sets of main / tail blades in the KIT.

        Still like and fly mine regularly, don't like the flipper skids changed them on my 380 and its much better. Aside from the skids it will be interesting to see what they've changed under the hood.

            mother plate is plastic not ally, boom is diff construction as are the side frames, updated swash, and Im sure theyve said the gear train is more like the 380's single stage belt rather than the bigger twin stage, but cant remember fully
            Some say my left nipple is the shape of a Raptor canopy.......... And that for fun I chase sheep in wellies 3 sizes too big. All I know is I am ​3D Clod
