Unhappy Gronimod Website

Just curious,
Anyone know why the Gronimod website has been suspended? I was going to download a Goblin for Realflight and found the site has been suspended.

He probably didn't pay his hosting bill. He stopped working on models because no one (or not enough people) was contributing towards his expenses. He also wasn't happy that people were taking his model, creating new schemas and posting them on the real flight swap site all without asking permission and in some cases not giving credit.

Yeah, Groni got annoyed with people, probably because they didn't want to "donate" enough for him to continue his work.
There are no expenses other than time, given the fact that he got all the CAD files from SAB and simply had to press a couple buttons to get them into RF (speaking from experience). I heard he even got several Goblins for the models he created, which apparently still wasn't enough for him.

I'm neither gonna miss him nor his work tbh. Greed is a deadly sin anyway

I didn't like the way his goblins flew , didn't feel connected to the heli, too robotic and didn't look good IMO

this Logo700 is the most accurate realistic flying sim heli there is ,

Thank you to all who contributed to this and especially to Johnny31297 ,Thank you Jonas

the graphics are truely amazing and the heli (with a little tuning for my settings)felt almost identical to my Logo 700.
