RE: Living in Montana has it's advantages!

Living in Montana has it's advantages!

For one, Heliproz is located near by, (and if you fly planes, Central Hobbies is about 3 blocks from Heliproz) so when I decided to get into this hobby, they were more than willing to help me...

Savage 21, new guy!!

I replaced my stock steering servo too (in fact with the Hitec 645MG) because the plastic gears in the stock one stripped twice. The 645MG has metal gears (hence the MG in 645MG) and I haven't had...
