Hey Pilots!

I tough I starterd this forum hoping it will become a good center of information well i just got the Hirobo SRB Quark, got it from a shop in Canada, and IT'S AMAZING how this machine flys. I had to experience the ordeal of buying frustration machines instead of flying machines (aka chinnes ... JUNK!) But I guess that is how one learns, hour's and hour's of setting up and almost no flying time, absolute frustration.

Now for the first time I charge the battery, laminated the main blades (if you have the XRB you know what I mean if not, go to http://www.rickyblazerc.com/), as you can see in the photos, with the actual problem that they wont fit in the balancer! So I had to improvise. Not even bother to find a training kit I turn it on and lift off! I still can't get over it, I paid more than $4OO for mine, no problem at all, super satisfaction!

Two suggestions and one question:
1. Most definitively laminate your blades, this way they will stand trough ligth crashes so you keep flying and not going to the shop buying blades, balancing and then doing it again (specially if you are a beginner like me). The one piece blade is a little tricky unlike the main blades but do it patching together small pieces of tape, be sure to folow the curve so it keeps it's pitch and it flys like magic.
2. The battery holder is a little unsteady (don't want to say cheap but it does not compare to the rest of the parts) in mine the battery slided a little fwd and back, so I tape a little square of female Velcro and now the battery is firmly in one position (see photo).
3. I will write to Hirobo about the blade balancer, it seems that is the same as the one for the XRB, but the new blades ring is to small and the blade mount wont go trough it. Any Suggestions anyone?

I also have a Hirobo XRB Shuttle, that actually is the reason that keept me in the hobby after my bad chinuas experiences. I learn to fly square 0 with this magnificent little heli and it still flys like new! (see the photo)

Happy flying!!!

I'm waiting on them to become available in bigger quantity. Having a heck of a time trying to even get a distributor to get ONE in to any hobby shop in Upstate NY.
