HI,
I might be able to help you out with your decision. My name is Greg and I work at MRC and with Hirobo. We want to thank you for trying out the SRB. I have a Quark and know they are a blast to fly. I also have a Lepton sitting right next to me and I will say that it is an amazing machine. I don’t want this to sound like a big commercial for Hirobo but I will say that the price of the lepton is high because of the quality. Hirobo comes out of Japan where as most everyone else is manufactured in china.
Other companies make great products and I will be the first to say it…………. they fly really nice. I even have a t-rex 450se. I enjoy flying it but can tell you it’s different from the Lepton.
The same quality that came with the quark is transferred to the Lepton and all of Hirobo’s product’s.
I should direct you to www.rchover.com and www.heliproz.com you can take a look at what they have. Give them a call to the guys there are really nice and can help you out.
Also before you make any money spending decisions you should go down to your local hobby store and take a close look at the Lepton or anything you have your eye on for that matter. A picture is worth a thousand words but when you have it in your hands you really can tell how you feel.
Thanks,
Greg
