I purchased one of these gray market heli's from that guy on ebay. From what I can tell it is a piccolo fun knockoff. My question is can I use Picollo parts on this heli? I want to upgrade the bushings to bearings. Just wondering if anyone knows for sure that they will fit

Which micro heli did you purchase? And in answer to your question probably yes to a lot of parts most of the micro helis use the same basic dimensions. I now am beginning to feel that its unfair to accuse the hummingbird and Feda of being knock off's Ikarus just came up with a really good idea to make micro helis using carbon rod, the Feda and Humma are different now in so many ways (most of them improvements). I think a little competition is healthy, especially now Ikarus have slashed their prices as a result.

That is a Feda dragonfly, it is the same as the Hummingbird.
sold by centuryheli.com
I have a Hummingbird myself and as I far as I know some of the mod parts are interchangeble like (swashplate, shaft collar mod,)
but the stock parts replacement are not...
