You're on the ball early Tim...............

Looks like full on clearance of everything kasama? Midland maybe concentrating on the Avant brand more now I guess. I know they have been waiting for a very long time for some of the upgrade items for other helicopters, maybe that has something to do with it. Either way, some srimok shaped bargains to be had for sure!

[Eckchaz]

Not good news with my decision on a Srimok.. Just spoke to Midlands and they have confirmed that they are getting rid of Kasama.. They dont feel they are happy due to a number of reason and they have a better future with Advant! With another UK seller not dealing in Kasama.. Apart from Concept where else are Kasama owner going to get their spares from?

[robgt]

Kasama have always wanted two outlets in the UK, so I am sure they will arrange for another dealer to come online.
Support for the range should remain good in the UK.

Cheers,

Cheers Rob, but only two retailers and "should" remain good is not settling for me, considering the initial cost of the Heli and not being sure if I can get spares.. Looks like Avant is a better route now or just stick with Align as so many have mentioned, however you cant beat the clearance price at the mo!

I've just spoken Eckman and he has told me that in the next 4 weeks that a main UK distributor (to be announced) will be holding stock and will allow a better supply chain in the country than is in place at the moment.

I spoke to Rob (Midland) yesterday and I totally understand that Kasama hasn't worked for the guys at Midland. I did try to persuade them otherwise but they are very committed to Avant and their decision was final. On a personal note I'm really sorry about this because I think they are an excellent dealer and clearly add value to any brand. Rob smells but that not his fault

The good news is that Eckman will be employed by the new UK distributor which is great news and hopefully retailers will find it easier to stock Kasama as they will not need to invest the large amounts required going straight to the Kasama.

Currently I understand Concept Copters have plenty of stock and also you can PM Eckman if you have any issues also. Eckman can sell you parts direct if you are desperate so PM him and he will help you out.

If you are still unhappy PM me and I will do everything I can to make sure you are kept flying as well as any advice i can give you about the model.

I can understand why some Kasama pilots would be p***ed with this (i have spoken to 2 already.

This is not good

Ordered 90N from MHL on Saturday after speaking with them to confirm availability of parts.

To be fair after speaking to MHL today they refunded me the difference between Saturdays price and their current "fire sale" price.

Maidened it today and as a result of my ineptitude now require some parts.

Looks like I'm screwed then. ;-(

Can't even find a tail boom...

You wouldn't believe how angry I feel right now.

I sympathise for you mate.. i'm kinda glad I didnt rush in and get one a fortnite ago when I decided on one.. and i'm now swaying towards an avant instead. Ben should be able to help you out at Concept or PM Eckman or richieclarkie as he's mentioned.

Justin - Not sure which i feel more sorry for you, the unsuccessful maiden or the supplier issue :-(

Hope your 700 is in the air and I will see you Sunday?
