I know a guy in Canada that sells king2 parts through ebay, he's got all the released products already and has already ordered the future ones as soon as they come out.

Status: offline 		I'm really curious about the new HBK2 Xtreme upgrade parts
to see if they really improve the HBK2. Especially parts such
as the 43 tooth pulley w/belt for the tail & the aluminum anti-
rotation bracket for example.

Here are some more Xtreme parts that will be coming out.

Fly bar control system
Carbon main frame
Landing skid
Canopy
Metal rotor head & tail rotor system

& there will be more upgrades are to follow!

Status: offline 		The xtreme-production.com site is the mfg's. site.
Druss has the guy from Canada (his name is Ken)
site in his thread. I have purchased parts from him
before. He's a great guy. There are a couple of parts
listed, and Ken will continue to list more of the HBK2
Xtreme parts as they are released from Xtreme.
There are prices listed. Shipping is $8.00 for the
first part ordered, all parts after that are free shipping.

Status: offline 		I tend to use Ken from his ebay store a lot, he'll do price matching if he can as well and you can't beat his shipping price. This is a little off thread but I can't stand sellers on ebay (or anywhere) who try to make a profit off the shipping, one guy wanted me to pay $100 to ship 4 tail blades, 2 sets of paddles and one receiver. This would all fit into one small 3" x 4" box and would probably only cost him $15 plus the box (from US to Canada).

Status: offline 		Well the 43 tooth belt conversion looks nice....But I just pulled out a tail rotor I had laying around and it has a 9 teeth and not a 10 tooth gear on it so that would put the stock ratio to 1 to 3.55 not 1 to 3.2 and with there new gear it would be 1 to 4.7 not 1 to 4.3. If 1 to 4.3 is optimal they would need to 40 tooth gear which would yeald 1 to 4.4. Any thoughts or am I just thinking too much??

Status: offline 		remember that the xtreme parts are supposed to increase performance, more teeth would provide a faster tail rotor and more authority at lower main rotor rpms (think i got that right). i've already got the stock cnc aluminum head but i'd love an entire grey or steel colored one since i'm putting an airwolf fuse on it and I don't think it had purple rotors in the show did it?

Status: offline 		Well I guess what I am getting at is that if they are realy using a 43 toothed gear they are custom cutting it. I have a source that I can get the belts and the gear stock and make this myself but the gear stock only comes in specific number of teeth. I can get a 40, 42, 44, but not a 43. Now the stock belt is cut from a wider belt as if you look at the belt it only has half of the part number info on it. So I am just wondering if the same mistake was made on the tooth count and it should realy be 42 or 44. Does anyone have one of these that could post the tooth count and the info on the side of the belt?
