Many thanks to Midland Helicopters

[apstringer]

Having built my first Trex 500, I discovered that I had a problem with the tail set-up. Having scratched the old noggin I was getting nowhere, so I went back to Midland Heli for help. Having managed to involve three of the staff with this problem, they found that I had not built the tail assembly correctly and had been a little bit to generous with the old thread lock. At this point I expected a not my problem attitude but none of it! They offered advise and completely rebuilt the tail section for me. I now have a fully functional Trex 500, which I need to keep in one piece.

Many thanks for all the help and putting up with a newbie, much appreciated.

You couldn't wish for a better shop and staff, and only 10 minutes down the road from you, lucky chap.
Watch the coffee there.....it activates credit cards.
Enjoy your flying.

The answer as to why you spend so much is within the coffee!

You see Mat sings to it every night, this relaxs it, which in turn makes it's strong flavours come to life. The side effect is that it makes customers listen to that little voice within all of our heads which says "Buy it! You know you want and need it in your fleet!" lol

The atmosphere in Midlands shop is always a great one, the staff are friendly (some too friendly ooh er) and so it always makes for a good day when you pay a visit.

I also reckon its Matts new glasses, they must have hypnotizing powers, takes them off when no one is in the shop but as soon as customers walk in he puts them on, Hmm

so its the rain water in the coffee that makes us lot hand over our money
with matt singing and it raining
can you tell him not to sing at the weekends so we can crash on sat and sun
and then spend on mon/tues

i went to midland heli on saturday with my new faulty avant rigid-core head they were very sympathetic about the poor avant uk support and lack of quality. i did managed to spend about £250 to cheer myself up though. good set of guys.

You are lucky. I found a decent LMS near me and a month later they closed down!

Maybe it was something I said ........
