Default RE: Belt Drive Conversion Kit

ya...what Yoda said.............[:@] And Yoda I wholeheartedly agree....... You stated:
Keep the Cp where it is no sense in updating. Spend a little less than people here are suggesting and you get to keep and or sell the CP and having a flyable chopper.
I just took my Eflite Blade CP back to stock and other than having issues with my trashing the frame on its maiden, they fly just fine stock. By converting them to belt drive tails........ you basically have a smaller version of the HBK2. The MH belt conversion kit clocks in at $288.00 USD and all 6 of the reviews on that site are negative. Expense being the main issue. granted........MicroHeli has some awesome products but there is so much competition out there in internet land that you can get basically the same parts for half the price shipped to your door. There are so many cheaper and just as workable options out there that buying a $300 bling part falls just on the short side of insanity. And I can vouch for useless bling, I have a blinged out Eflite Blade CP that is not flying at the moment. Good $350 desk ornament...........
