Much Appreciated Update!
Thanks David for the Honesty and Update!
************************************************* I'll be picking up a 300 X kit here at a Local Hobby Store today and I've been reading that the folks in the UK and here in Germany are concerned about the "spares" issue (e.g. Lipos, Main Blades, Feathering Spindle). I'll be keeping tabs with the LHS for parts availability but I'm really keeping an eye out for the OEM Lipo's; will pick up a few more once available here in Europe since the USPS is still not in a hurry to deal with the Lithium shipment issue. I'll have to deal with the V.A.T. Tax here but when its all said and done, $403.00 USD to feed my addiction isn't a bad thing for me and is probably what I'd pay total ordering from the U.S. I'm SERIOUSLY EXCITED to be able to fly this BLADE 300 X on the 4th of July here as it'll be my "Fireworks"; sans any crashing, lol!

Got my 300X at a local store on Sat 30. June. Since I'm off on vacation soon I'll be taking an extra set of blades (main and tail) with me - just in case, bought them from the same store yesterday.
So, limited spares can be found ...

No, I have just used some RFI (whatever that is) 1300 / 25C and they work fine. No hard 3D stuff, though. They need to be a little more forward on the tray to keep the CoG.
This is where I got the stuff: http://www.mcmskyshop.com/

"Both of my T-Rex helis (700 and 550) use this receiver FBL and it is absolutely flawless and spectacular."
I have to agree with this assessment of th AR7200BX. I have one in a Trex 600E and am very impressed by it.

Other than running with +15% expo on the transmitter Everything is bone stock. The Only issue's I'm running into is like honkytown says, need more Lipo's and the other is cleaning bug guts off of wooden blades. I did purchase a local branded Lipo (3S 1300mAh 30C+) for testing but found that I don't have the proper balance adapter for my charger...so down to 1 Lipo again. The BLADE 300 X is the Real Deal; just say'n.

It's insane to me that this heli was announced and made available for pre order in February.
Then pushed back, another heli (130x) announced, pushed back again. Then the other heli released. Wtf. Why not focus on filling the original orders for the first heli, before announcing and producing and releasing a second heli.

I imagine that depending on what port the shipments came in on and trucking routes, delivery could of been delayed by the 4th of July Holiday???
