WOW! Cheap Lepton spares

[Gscott]

Too bad they are not actual Hirobo parts but at these prices it's just about as cheap to crash as a T-Rex.

Anyone have any experience with the Helidirect stuff? Is it any good?

22 tooth pinion? HMMMMMMMMMM.

Never been to fond of Helidirect, but hey they do have CHEAP Lepton parts.

What about the frame. I am thinking of buying but that frame replacement is still too high. I know that the prices at ready heli have gone down some, but what about the frame?

[Gscott]

You can get a compete MJP frame for about $80.

I like that 22T Pinion, might be the right thing to allow the 3025 10T motor to run near 100% with my ESC. Also, the tail rotor blade grips are nice too! I may have to place an order!

HeliDirect also sells CF 62mm blades which work well with the Lepton, although I do have the 67mm blades from Readyheli.

8$ for the main gear ... that is cheap, is that Delrin material ? Also I like the vertical fin holder ... now alu, does not probably need to be alu, just I like the matrial :mrgreen:

This looks very good, especially I am interested in carbon boom (stock one breaks so fast), and the pinion 22T (for the 4S you just have to get smaller than 24), what material is it ?

This main gear, is it delrin ?

The main frame, I wonder what else parts need to be bought, because motor upside-down, can all other parts being used (e.g. main mast/gear) and is the tailservo space full size ?

sorry, many questions still left ... :?:

The Pinion is Brass

If u read carefully i think he has 2 frames, one is the HDX 500 frame (shown above)
From what i know, HDX frames should come with the full thing shown (STK frames comes complete)
the other is just normal Lepton Frames replacement.

[xircom]

oh yes you are right, just looked into the picture, there it says Lepton upgrade. Brass ... no idea, is that as good as stock pinion ? If yes I guess going to order one soon :mrgreen:

In what way does the std. tailboom break?!

[xircom]

break or just bend, after a bit hard touch, mostly upside

[Finless]

A buddy of mine is using one of the main gears and it is working very well. He has about 15 flights on it now. It is not derlin but well molded plastic. It did not appear to be out of round like Align molded gears.

It is not derlin but well molded plastic

Hi Bob is it smooth and quiet like the delrin one ???
or is it much more noiseir

[Finless]

Sounded about the same to me...

Nice carbon fiber tail boom in stock first order I just get some, get them while they are in stock, I'll get more later, only 14.99usd, cheap like trex parts.

I don't see the CF boom?

Also, what happened to the 22 tooth pinion?

I placed my order over the weekend. Hope the pinion shows up as a 22 tooth.

[n1lul]

Same question here with the 22 tooth pinion. I had a order all set to go and I noticed it was a 24 tooth. When the 22t shows back up, I'll place the order.
