Heliartist Kits (one for Cuppa!)

[Eckchaz]

The 500 is bugging the hell out of me with a problem and i'm either thinking of selling or making my first scale from it. I say this is one for cuppa as I think he's recently done this same kit.
I'm looking at Fast Lad Performance but I was wondering why it is over twice the price of the other kits.. I know it includes a new frame but this surely cant warrant the price.. so I was thinking, does it include the 4 blade head aswell, as in one off the pictures.. then that would seem more like it. P.s It also dont state on the manufacturers website

That dosent include the scale head ! most kits the head is a seperat thing to buy

[electricsceadu]

you get the raised tail box with it
i bet the other make doesn't

i would advise that you get the heli flying perfect before you fit it into a scale fuz
as it will be twice the trouble than in pod and boom form

As these things go, it is a pretty complete pack there. You often find you are paying extra for the weapons, belt etc. so it is not that far out of line.

If you want to see what is out there then this is a good site :

RC Aerodyne | ScaleFlying.com - Helicopter Fuselages - Sorted By Size

They source from the usual Chinese and other manufacturers but it is rare to find all the options in one place.
