Default how about a 600?

Ok this heli is light really light, I'll bet if msh made a 600 it would actually perform on 6s.... which would make it one of a kind.

Anyone have any idea what is next for msh?

I'm also hoping there will be a MSH600 in the near future, they can put me on the pre-order list.
But my guess is that MSH is still very busy with the 500, improving/support, upgrades and producing the kits.
So if one would be developed, it will take awhile i think..

I"m about ready for a 600, and frankly if the protos came out before aligns 500, I may have gone with the protos...

for a 600 though, I hear 6s is just not enough on the century 620, or the t-rex 600e. After seeing my friends protos however, I think MSH could make a really light 600... it would be untouchable by anything else currently out there.

The Logo 5003D is super light and is a 560mm class blade heli. As far as the 600mm class the Logo 6003D again is a super light performing bird. They "MSH" would have to compete against those light birds and that would be a tough one to top imho. I might be abit biased, however I do own a Protos 500 myself.

I don't have a Logo prepared wallet.
When kit and spare-parts prices drop, I would be all over my dreamheli (Logo 600) Shawn
A friend of mine ownes a Logo 10 and had a light crash, costs were 170 € ( 270$)...
For that price i can completly rebuild a Protos 500.

same here, I had a friend offer me a logo cheap cause he couldn't afford to keep it in the air. Ha also said parts availability was a problem here in the us.

I have to admit the thing was really light... but repair costs, and availability were(and still are) a deterrent.

That weak dollar is no good for us, but it must be good for companies like MSH... where their heli likely sells for 185 euro.

It sells for 278,40€ without motor.
But in a heavy crash (what i call a rebuild) you always have parts that survive.
Logo parts are over-expensive Imho.
If they change strategy a little, like Vstabi did for instance, they would sell more kits..

Well the Protos does not fair any better in a crash people, I know I own one as well and know several who own both etc.... Bottom line is the Protos and others like Logos are not built to crash, they are built to fly. I realize this happens to everyone, but you can not think about crashing, its like a sin.

I can't agree more with you OIC, but sometimes we just can't resist to commit 'sin'

I also agree, it's the biggest sin..and it hurts like hell..
That's why it hurts even harder with a Logo... when you finally have to pay the bill for your sins

I would love to see a 600 sized MSH heli. I agree that the Logo is the top dog in that department for now but I think Corrado could give em a run! The Protos is a blast to fly and I cannot say enough on how smooth, queit and powerful it is. I am flying with the Kora 15-12 on 5s and 18tooth pinion and it is as powerful as the stock motor on 6s was PLUS it runs cooler. For a joke at the field I will put my lips on the motor after a flight to show how cool it is to the other guys at the field!
I also love how Corrado sends the updates out to previous owners at no cost to them. Couple that with the service that Pete at Elecktrorc gives, and you have a winner!......Ron
