      You will love the Vibe with the 55.... totally different heli

      Smooth, precise.... and now powerful! the perfect 50 now IMO

      On the 700's.... they are the same so enjoy them both. Happy days

        Your thoughts on the 700 are very similar to mine Mark. Mine isn't the LE version, but I'm very happy with it and have been flying it for about a month now. It just oozes confidence (before a fall maybe?? ). The only changes I've made so far have been to put the Quick UK canopy mounts on, because after only a couple of afternoons the canopy gel-coat had started to crack around the front pylons from being stretched over, and I've added some flybar weights (not tried them yet) just this week.

        My previous 90 size helis have been two Freyas, three Millenniums and a Vibe, and none have been more enjoyable to fly. All the others have been a niggling worry about something or other, probably the repair costs - the 700 just instills confidence.

        Really liking it and flying it at every opportunity.

            hmm well we both like different pitch curves on our heli's, he prefers it to be much smoother whereas i prefer mine to be a bit more snappy, we'll sort something out !
