        What ever you do do NOT break the rear tail gears....

        Because you'll be lucky to find any at all. I know of someone with a 60 its the same gears and their a bugger to find as a spare

                          why the 700 flybar? and is the quik uk mount lighter or something?? to be honest making it lighter would have no effect at the mo! im not at a level where id notice!

                            there not hat much bigger andy its a decptive thing. youve seen my k3d ext tomy vibe and where there not much in it the vibe is kin huge in comparison.

                            700 flybar is supposed to give you faster cyclics, like you say a carbon frame WILL NOT benefit you at the mo if at all, at least if you crash with the ally frames really bad you can hammer it straight again.

                            For those that are interested heres his new big chopper LOL
