Oh wow I actually won. I am not home right now but I will get a better thank ypu ouy tonight when I get home Stupid, near dead blackberry and numb hands That is hard to read, and I wrote it By the Time I got home last night I was only up to going to bed. I spent the weekend out at my brothers operating a wood splitter, sun up to sun down. I just want to thank DR. E, Cliff and RC Aerodyne for doing these Giveaways. I think i am going to put the GC into a FBL setup for the 600, but I have time to think about it. I already have a few spare parts on hand, all the replacement parts I have had to buy so far has come in pairs, and I have 4 sets of blades, 3 HK sets, and 1 Align set. There are a few odds and ends I would like to have on hand just in case, but I will make one order when the time comes and save on shipping.

I do need to get some feathering shafts on hand, but I can pick them up at the hobby shop in Ottawa. Thing is I am very close to going to the Black Widow FBL setup, something I can't pick up locally so I think i may be using the GC towards that, but I am going to take at least another month before I decide. That way if I go for it by the time it clears customs and gets delivered to me it will be Christmas

I am actually looking at the Skookum 720 system. Yes its a lot more expensive at $400, but I like the self leveling thing. I have time to make up my mind though because I most likely wont get this one in the air till next spring other than maybe a test flight on the flybar head.

Take a look at the new MSH Brain - $250 and has self leveling

I am going to have to do some more investigation on this. Kammerer does make things look smooth though doesn't he ;D

I remember sending bank drafts only to Italy for SAB blades when I had my little RC shop. They have come a long way. That really looks like a good gyro and I think he is a guy you can trust. I love the way he can throw it around really smooth and still talk calmly and about every featgets ure. A real pro. If it get GPS position hold I am sold.

The Kammerer video? Odd it plays fine for me, but there have been plenty of other youtube videos that just wont play for me. They start and die a couple seconds into them. In the Kammerer MSH video he is doing some smooth low head speed 3D, then he kicks it up to the normal humming bird on crack thing. I like the low head speed part best. Its not playing now Too bad because it was some nice flying
