I have owned a 50 and a 90 and have had a great time with them both.. Hard 3D has never been a problem..My 90 has repeatedly out preformed the Rappy SE... JMHO.. I did have to replace the Paddles with V's but other than that its stock.... Good luck with your SE..

And this attitude is exactly why I will never buy one of your products, good sir. You simply don't make anything that can do what others cannot. He was simply his opinion, which is shared by many others, and all the animated smilies in the world can't make up for the fact that this post is simply disrespectful to the OP.

Edit: Wow. I'm still feeling heated over this, and I think I know why. I've seen a couple of adverts for the Stinger series, and I said to myself, "man, that's a slick looking bird." Then I see the price, and how it comes out of the box, and I can't think of any more excuses about why I shouldn't own a .90 whirlybird, or why it shouldn't be this one! Then I start to do my homework and get the impression that I should stay away, and that was a disappointment for me. Then, the condescending attitude from a company representative? Throw me a bone here, people. Tell me that I still want this heli, and the company is run by good respectful folks.

OK its a small bone.

I can assure you that Gohbee IS run by good people.
Just give them a call, in most cases David the owner will answer the phone and therefore obviously has the authority to deal with any issue you may have.
There are times that he may be on the phone or traveling to a Fun Fly, and you might get the answering machine, but he does check messages and return calls quickly.
Even those that may have had a problem with something or other and have decided to fly some other brand still have to admit that there is no better support or company to work with.

I am not going to try to blow smoke up your butt and tell you that Gohbee is the highest quality heli on the market. It's not. It's also not priced like the "best" helies out there.
I do very much believe that the Gohbee's are a very good value.

I have built and own helies from all of the major manufacturers and there is not one that is perfect. I guess that to buy an inexpensive kit that needs a little TLC to get right is not as much of a problem for me as as purchasing a $1000+ kit that still needs TLC and mods to get right.
Once built and trimmed the stock Gohbee's are just as capable in the air as almost any other stock machine out there and more capable than some costing a lot more money.

If there was a perfect heli on the market, it would be the only one flown by everyone and all other brands would be out of business.

Im not sponsered by anyone but my own pockets so let me tell you my opinon and its just mine....I have owned and a 90 and a 50 gohbee and i have trained 30-40 people on the 50.... the 90 is a good ship if your not rich and would like to do some 3D ...its no competition machine in my hands but it will smoke with the best of them... i reccommend the 50 to all my students as its cheap to rebuild and nice and stable... with some mods it does good 3d too....If you are buying a competition machine you wouldnt be looking at a gohbee... But the price is right...it flys damn good and you can afford to repair it when you mess it up....Yhea i own a stratus but it stays home most of the time not that i cant handle it but cuz i enjoy tearing up the sky on pennies instead of hundred dollar bills.. nuff said from my point of view..... Buy what you want but dont bad mouth cuz YOU bought wrong...

I would like to say sorry if my words "you can't do" offend someone (I refer to the heli). I only try to explain about my happiness to have an affordable good an high capable machine, but used the wrong words...

again sorry and best wishes.

regards

I have a Gohbee 30 , a trex 450se and a trex 600n I prefer to fly the gohbee over either of the other granted i have more time on it than the others but it is so stable if the wind is not blowing i can let go of the sticks and scratch my face or my balls and that heli will hover without moving around. i cant say that for my other helis but like I said before i have spent more time trimming the gohbee

Hi guys in the US,
this MAKIS was bying a 90 helicopter from the secound souce (may used) and NOt from me as the official dealer from Gohbee in Germany.
He chrashed his heli very bad ( I dont believe he flys 3D) and ask me for the spare part (komplete Head) but he will pay only 1/2 price than he are MAKI the GREEK guy in Germany and a really expert in mechanical.

I told him that he has to pay the full normal price; at this time I never heard from this man.

All other Gohbee-Heli flying guys (Ladies also) are very satisfied with the helicopters and the service.

David; dont worry about this man he alwas write in some foren funni things about any style and brand of helicopters.

hi all I bought the gohbee 90 and yes my maiden flight was not good cause tail bearing went out and it did a little crash but i called david and he helped me out with no probs and so i can personally say that the customer service for gohbee was really good. Im not some big 3d pilot so i dont know a whole lot on helicopters. but i can say that david has helped me out and was fair about everything so please dont bash someone. my only prob with my heli is i cant seem to get my engine tuned right and its an OS 91 but im not bashing that company...
