Status: offline 		If someone is selling just the transmitter at a different price, it's probably because they're trying to take advantage of the heli guys. Once you slap "heli" onto a product, the price jumps. Cool Power 15% is a fine example. The forumula is the same between the Heli labeled bottle and the one without the heli label, but my local shop charges more for the heli sticker.

Status: offline 		THey are both the same price from Servo City. ANyone who charges more for the Heli version is just trying to rip you off.
