  • Caliber 700 spares?

    I'm on the look out for a larger heli for next month and have been looking at the caliber and gaui hurricane 550. trouble is I cant find spares specific for the caliber 700 midland helis do spares for the nitros so I'm just wondering if the parts are the same with any of the nitros???

    Cheers

    Not sure that I've ever heard that heli mentioned on here before. Kyosoho do some fantastic high-end FAI machines but their popularity is pretty close to zero with the general heli flying public. Bit of a specialist heli.

    What type of flying are you interested in? Maybe there's something more appropriate and easier to fund/supply that you might like to consider?

      I have a Gaui 550 for sale if you're interested. There was a time not long ago when Helifreaks was very enthusiastic about them and Finless did a build video etc. Lately I never hear it mentioned, but I think it never caught on as well over here (parts are readily available though, no problem). Mine is nearly new but I just have too many helis so some have to go.

        Hi and thanks

        I'm just looking for something a little different basicly, nothing extreme just a larger heli that can handle a little more wind and range for general cruising about

          Ordered the last one from SMC for £300 p&p free, I've found it for sale elsewhere for 370 and 340quid Parts are the same as the caliber 5 which midland sell spares for

                Not sure, but yeah it should be soon, it is down for recorded delivery as far as I am aware because it cost over £150 so yeah, should be Friday.

                Hope it gets to you soon,
