They lost their heli guy, Al. He was pretty good and I stay in touch with him, but this was the reason I opened my own store.

Neither CD or ERC wanted to bring in the stuff I wanted or had the expertise.

I agree both of their selections for helis seems so limited and getting parts is sometimes a pain

Where is your store located Jeff?? I'll definitely check it out if it's close by

I am online only. We are currently in Garson but moving into Winnipeg. We'll only be carrying Synergy kits from here on out as I need to free up time to spend with my young children.

Definitely have to check out synergy once I get good enough. Currently waiting for servos from HK...meant to order from US warehouse. I've pretty much given up on the mcpx, as I replaced the tail motor and now it seems my board is toast. I may fix it at some point. The 130x is awaiting a new tail shaft...useless Phillips screws, I was forces to cut the shaft to remove grips. I had to do the same for for the 450x, but because I bent the screws. The 450x is all to take to the skies again other than servos.

hmm haven't heard much on those kits...think I'll look into them a bit, because the next heli I get will definitely be a kit to assemble

Where do you usually fly Jeff and when? If on the weekend sometime maybe my Dad and I can come and check it out, he's the one that ended up getting me into the hobby, and both my Mom and Wife regret it lol

I'm usually travelling to events all over North America, but when I do fly locally, its usually at Saints.

I can sometimes also be found at WRCC over the lunch hour on week days.

Best is if we just make arrangements to meet and fly.
