I will spend my money at my LHS. He has all the parts and supplies i need. The $25.00 I will save will buy me an upgraded battery. That would give me 2 7.4 v bat and a 8v bat. think of the fly time I could have. I am sure I will be buying replacement parts for my slo-v from him also. Don't get me wrong >>> I have spent a lot of time in the shop talking to him about my first plane. He has been very helpful. He is a real nice guy, and I have already seen a plane I would buy from him for my 2nd plane. I maybe CHEAP but I know a dollar when I see it. My thinking is not just in saving, but having the extra money to fix what I break.
