Talking I swear, this is my only bling....

O.K. Most of you guys know I have a propensity for bling on my helis! I swore I wasn't going to do it on my mCPX's. No luck. I got my 130 and was going to keep it stock. Didn't work and I was such a rock.

I swear this is the only bling I'm putting on my BL Nano! I have already broke one swashplate and figured this would be an investment. We'll see how much of a rock I can be with this one!

It's a MH swash and is right around .3 grams heavier then stock with the O-rings.

Seriously though This little heli does not need any other upgrade than the swash it is weak! Happy flying

I pondered whether I should get one of these for so long that by the time I decided to go for it, they were all sold out. Good job I've already ordered a stock original to replace my broken swash. I've managed to break a swash arm off at that weak point at the base of the arm.

I ordered the RHK head and grips a few days ago. Yesterday I got a dispatch e-mail saying that they could take up to 28 business days to get to the U.K. from Vietnam. Great, I MIGHT get them for Christmas then.

Free world wide shipping is nice, but there's no option available for faster shipping at a cost when paying with Paypal

I haven't hit bottom yet either. I tell myself that I'll be happy on the rung that I'm on, then I see something else.

i.e. buying parts for another dbl brushless build yesterday, plus a nearly new V1 mcpx off of the for sale board. At least I'm not doing it on credit cards

My next big thing in December-Jan is getting a nano and sending it to you for a brushless upgrade

It never ends.....

I'm digging the MH swash. Seems to make things a bit more smooth in flight. Not so squirrely anymore.

I've ordered a fair bit of stuff from RKH and the 28 business days is definitely the worst case scenario they use to cover themselves. 10-15 business days is much more likely. In fact, seeing your email has me just about to visit their website!

Hey man, well that's good to know I'm hoping the next batch of MH swashes are made available soon, no desperate hurry though, I've just replaced a damaged swash with a new stock one anyway.

NCCraig, That's good to know about the swash making it a bit less squirrley, maybe the extra weight actually helps in that respect, even if it is only 0.3 grams or so.

Cheers
