Default RE: Gohbee - Just a Warning

I would say that THE ONLY things that are different to the Raptor is the Rotor head! ALL the remaining parts are interchangeable with the Raptor. Frames, clutch, Clutch bell, Tail unit, gears, pinions, boom, belt, servo tray, collective arm, tail gearbox, etc...etc!!! If you can't get your Gohbee part.. just buy a raptor part! The only parts that are obviously not, are the head parts..and in the end, if you do manage to smash the head up totally and cannot get the parts from whoever..., you could just put the Raptor head on it...or even one of the aftermarket upgrade heads that are readily available. Some of the parts are actually stronger, or beefed up than the raptor..noticeably the tail pitch fork, and some other items. The collective tray is extrememely Rigid, and very slop free. Has some nice standard metal bits on it..!!

I'm not a rep...I've just seen and examined one close up! so don't curse me!


Also I haven't seen the prices of spares, but from what I understand, I'm sure the parts are cheaper than Raptor parts. If you guys want to stick with the TT Raptor, you can still make use of the spares from a 'Stinger'.

I don't really think it is a rip off..It just gives people another choice for beginners, and also the budding 3d pilot. It does fly very well. It's most definately on par with the standard Raptor, if not better...and its FFF characteristics are better than the standard raptor. It is very smooth! Still fully testing one out on my friends helis at the moment.(haven't had a chance to fully wring it out yet, have to get the engine fully run in)

Also, it's just as easy to upgrade to a 50...using the same standard TT parts or their own. Pinion, main gear, boom, belt, and the blades
