No new Logos yet??? Ready Heli not a dealer anymore??

[bladebreaker]

I know a lot of guys (myself included) on this forum fly Logo helis and are waiting for the new 500/600s

I just got an email from ReadyHeli that they are no longer a dealer due to "territorial conflicts". They have remaining stock at a discount if anyone needs anything.

The new Logo line up is such a tease. I can't fly what I can't get!!

that's too bad. I can tell you this is a result of the spoiled brat attitude of Sean Plummer, the US distributor for Mikado. He's alot like John O. at Airfoil. If he gets the wild idea that he doesn't like you he just pulls your account and tells you to move on. Precisely what has happened here with ReadyHeli. I've had to deal with Sean face to face and he's an idiot.

www.espritmodel.com will be the best place to get the kits. I'm anxiously waiting! I want to try a 600 and stretch it to fit some 680's

I hate politics. I guess that's why I'm not a politician!

FXAero will probably get them someday too. I would love to have a stretched 600. I wonder if it will be difficult to get a longer belt to work with the new setup.

most likely it won't. www.sdp-si.com will have a belt for it and Vario and Minicopter both use 25mm booms

Sweet DJ, Maybe we'll build ours together...if they are ever released. It would make a nice pano machine. I wonder how it stacks up to a Joker? I know I can afford it easier. I just got the Nikon 10.5 lens and did a decent spherical on the ground...time to fly!

mine gets here in a week! I'm excited to try it under my Logo 24!

I think you'll like it. After about 2 feet everything is pretty sharp on infinity focus. I'm ready to put it on the Logo 20, just need some time to fly. It has been pretty foggy here lately too....send me over some AZ sunshine!

Wow, I hadn't heard about ReadyHeli losing its Logo dealership. That's too bad. Sean can definitely be difficult to deal with, at times, but I'm still in good stead, as far as I know. :)

I'm going to setup two Logo 500s first, one for 3D, with the V-Bar system, and one will go on my pano mount. the 600s won't be out for at least a month after the 500s finally show up.

Hey Gary, any word on when the 500s might come?

Tip

I didn't check today, but they should be air-shipped from Germany any day now. It takes 3-4 days to get to Aero-Model.

Gary,
Do you sell the kits as well, or only upgrades and battery packs?

I do, but usually as part of AP package deals, or special orders. If anybody wants one, I can check tomorrow, and see if they have any more out of this first batch of Logo 500s that aren't committed yet. The Logo 600s won't be out for at least a month after the 500s. Send me an email (ggoodrum@tppacks.com) if you want one. I'll do a package deal with a Z-Power motor.
