They do seem to be available at the various Compass outlets so I presume they are still made.

If you just want one to scratch that itch, then fair enough, they certainly fly well. My experience was that they are a pain to build, pretty awful to work on and the battery mount/canopy mount makes it fiddly to use at the field.

They are good to fly but I found that when choosing what to fly on any particular day, the Warp usually got left behind.

Look like i´m of the old school liking to remoove the anopy to swap batteries, but that´s me.
Building the heli is not that hard but placing the electronicks is a pain as it´s a crammed frame.
But when it is build and in working order it´s a nice flying helicopter.

My experience has been quite the opposite. Stupid simple to build and maintain. The only part that was at all finecky was the belt tensioner idler pulleys... but I have a 1st batch heli and from what I understand that was addressed quickly.

I guess the spring pin holding the tail pulley can be annoying, but once you know how to deal with it, its also stupid easy.

Compass fixed the issue with the tail box after the 1st batch. It is no longer two carbon plates and no longer requires the bearings to be attached with CA or epoxy. So... that's addressed.

It crashes quite well. I still have yet to replace my main shaft. Still on my original, from the 1st batch.


What about this heli makes it "hard to work on"? I'm curious. This thing is basically a box with a tail boom, mast/rotors and some skids. There is nothing to it. No dampers to deal with, no AR bracket, skids are breakaway, no boom-supports... this thing is a tank. It also autos like a 550 (minus the non-driven tail).

Where do you find parts?

Unfortunately Compass went out of business and although the Chronos 700 and the Exo 500 are being brought back by former Compass distributor MTTEC, they have no plans that i know of to continue the Warp 360..

So i'm afraid you are out of luck unless you can find someone with old parts available.

If any of the ex Compass team guys know different i'm sure they will jump in.

Yes, but some parts are sold out. I'm looking for a canopy.
If anyone knows of a source, I'd appreciate being told.
Thanks.

I have been purchasing used Warps in order to get some spares.

I am very sorry that this machine (and all Compass machines) are no longer available.

The Chronos should return at some point, followed by the eXo, but the Warp (last time I heard) was not going to be re-issued.

It was and still is, my favorite small helicopter.
