Got addicted. Got a new one today

[vette747]

If you have seen my recent posts, you know that I bought my first indoor Hirobo heli 11 days ago. This morning (even before my first coffee), I took my indoor heli outdoor and really like the free space. So I jumped in the vette and went to the hobby shop and bought the Hirobo Lepton XR 3D heli.

Now I need to assemble it. I had no problem assembling my RC trucks because I’m use to car mechanics, but I’m telling you, I read the instruction manual and this is an other world for me. No shocks, suspension or wheels or any thing I can refer to. I think that will take me a week to put it together.

Lepton XR 3G
Futaba 6EX-PCM Digital Proportionnal R/C system
4 S3102 Digital servos
1 S9650 Digital Servo
GY 401 SMM rate Gyro

Here is a pic of the package. I created a new heli page on my web site. You can see more.

There is a new RC Helicopter link at the top of the page.

My wife asked me the price. (She was a bit surprised that the small one cost $400, but was not really concerned. (Well as long I pay the mortgage, electricity and tax…. )). I told her that I will tell her in a month. When I will have paid my credit card bill………………….. So I will prepare her that the new one is $1500. Good she does not read the forum……..

Thats funny. If I told my girlfriend the cost of some of my addictions one bieng motorcycles, I think she would leave me.

Congrats on the new bird.
