:) Gonna do a build thread? I'm not sure I want to buy and build another heli this year, but if I do it's probably between this one and the Gob 370.

The frame bolts are crap the heads strip way to easy
They put all the bolts in were they go before shipping and they are not real tight but have striped several of the bolts just taking them out
The bolts Remind me of a really cheep clone

For the price those things should have been titanium. Sounds like EXI before they met there maker.

I post over on the HF In the Oxy thread and they are saying its my tool not the bolts. OK but I have used 3 1.5 hex drivers and got the same thing

You have the Align driver set right? Those should be good enough to handle an Oxy 3. I have 2 scorpion drivers that are just the bee's knees. I love them, they are the first drivers I grab for any kind of work on the heli.

There is something to be said for quality tools. But if you're getting stripped bolts using the same tools you use on other kits without issue then it seems there might be a kit issue. That said, it's a few screws. Use some extras and git 'er done. :)

Yes I posted it on the OXY forum and I get a PM from the man himself Luca
Told me it is just dirt from the packing and should wash off with water Really did he just say that burn marks in the finish will wash off with water :o
