Gulp !!!! $$$$$$

Post by Lee »

Well, I just paid for all the parts I needed to fix the Goblin 570.
$315 :shock: That was an expensive crash
I did buy a few upgrade parts, and the only blades available from the shop I bought everything at, were the SAB 3D blades at $20 more than standard.
Everything,except the main gear, from my new favourite shop, MercadoRC, here in Spain.
Should be here before the weekend :)
Lynx CNC main gear coming from Align.co.uk :)

For a garbin thats about normal, i think. Hell the 700/770 is almost 400 a crash.

On the bright side the 570 will be flying again. Are those the standard SAB blades or the Black Line blades? I hear good things about the Black line.

Very cool, Lee! I hope the parts get to you quickly so you can get the Goblin flying again. I just love the sound from the Goblin helicopters!

Wow. Must have been a decent crash. I spent that on my worst gob500 crash, but that was with a bunch of spares bought too. I've found it to be hugely resilient to major crash damage otherwise.

It was a decent crash Paul, the tail hit the deck first, we were hunting around for all the pieces off it....

Lol... Kno the feeling bruh! All part of it tho.. Down time sucks while gathering up the cash to fix it! What I hate worse is that most of the time the set up after a crash is hard to get it how it was before the crash.
