[Tim Procter]

Funny you say that Chris, That's what I paid for mine from Leeds..

[ChrisB]

Yep can be done,Mr Models did me a deal because he has seen the inside of my wallet so often over the years

He is a good chap

Bought all my kits from Leeds model shop, always the cheapest I can find in the UK, I'm surprised there is such a mark up on the kits. You can get a 700 on ebay from HK for £395 with free delivery but maybe not worth chancing getting hit by tax if leeds are doing them for £425

Apart from the stability I just don't get 90's unless of course you are old and going blind

Mmmmm..

Dunno about that Phil, Watching a 90 size heli doing full-on 3D is much more entertaining than watching a lesser sized model don't you think..

And yes old and going blind maybe but 90 size helis certainly do have a presence in the air much more than a 450 or 500 size model, And don't forget the "noise" they make.

Just my opinion of course.

[Smoothound]

I'm not comparing to 450's or 500's really more to 50's

Just look like a load more crash and fuel costs for what? Nothing really, same noise, a bit bigger, no better really.

Just a big help if you are getting on a bit( Like me) and could do with a bigger lump in the air.

Reminds me of the Yanks going on about theirs always being bigger and better when we all know it's not really the case it's just ego massaging.

I'm sure if I had the cash I'd get one just to see but I doubt I'd keep it when I can get twice the fuel economy and similar performance from a 50

Looking at the results at 3DM this year the judges seem to agree, 90 size helis have more prescence and so tend to score higher, there were plenty of Logo 600's entered but results were disappointing.

I felt the same about 90's as I flew in a club where 60's were the biggest allowed, then I joined another club and watched all the 90's fly and bought a Fury Extreme as a result. I recently stripped the gear out of the Fury and fitted it to my new 700 and it's the heli I fly the most now and I do have a few options

I can certainly agree about the fuel costs though, running 30% is costing around £3.50 a flight
