Ok, so first thing's first. An impressive little heli at a great price. Am running with inolab servos on cyclic and tail, with digital on tail...will switch cyclic to digitals when time permits. Using the orange FASST compatible receiver with great success, coupled with 1000 3S mah nano-tech lipos. Mounted on their side there is plenty of room under the hood. Ga-250 (assan) holds very well for the tame flying (tryin hard not to crash while scaring the rapeseed plants here in Southern Bavaria, Germany).

Notes: For new to heli guys like me. This is not an EP 200 V1 or V2, or even that ridiculous 3-bladed ep100 I stretched to a 200. Not a docile machine! The head speed is insane, and cyclic response is quick, even with a fair amount of expo dialled in. Have replaced the flybar with something a bit shorter today to try and tame it a bit. Will let you know how I do.

I gave this heli 4 stars for one reason. The stock landing gear is absolute crap. One of my very early dial in flights resulted in disaster...shame on me for taking the training gear off too early, but a very moderate landing (no I did not bounce the bloody thing down from a meter up in idle up 1 pulling negative pitch), and the gear snapped which left my rotor blades no place to go but the dirt. So, crap gear cost me a pair of rotor blades, flybar, see-saw bearing and screw (should not have come out

This is a really nice flying helicopter. It has very light disk loading which makes it quite floaty. Flies much better than other 250s.



The boom supports are fragile as are the skids and the tail servo mount. You need to get the upgrades for all three of these.



Awesome flying bird with a very stable tail!

It is a very good product. And since he bought it with the sale very at a low price, it was very good.
