Alright had talked to a few guys about my future assignment, but orders are here and it's final. I will be doing an oversea's tour for a year without family which sucks, but it's the military. I have decided to pack up my 450 and 600 to take with me. I am thinking of getting the 500 from cliff as well before I depart. I know I will be ordering a bunch of parts to go with my helis over there. I will still be visiting the forums I hope and see no issue with not being able too. This is a great forum and have meet some great people just not in person yet. I have seen that the south Koreans love rc helicopters, so may make the year go by sat.

Chris,
Yes I am a Warrant Officer in the Army, and have almost 17 years in now. I have met a lot of people in my career and most of the time there is rc helis involved. I will get the g- jive done and flying my scale fuses will stay here though and I will fly pod and boom. I don't want to ship those over too much to crate up the helicopters I can put back in kit form and rebuild once over there.
Mike

Thanks doc for the comments and for serving. This should be my last one before retirement then can shift to enjoying the hobby full time.

Thank you for your service and best of luck with the assignment. Here's to hoping N. Korea doesn't think your helis are part of the US's fleet of drones.

Thanks dr evil and rcdude
I am looking for cases now to get things ready to ship I will fly up until July. I will be sending cliff an email as well to line up some replacement parts before I leave so I can be stocked up for the year.with just working and no family there I should get a lot of flying in. I imagine will manage a few crashes as well.
Mike
