Just bought a Gohbee .50. Thought about the Raptor, they were both in their boxes, sitting side by side but decided to go with Gohbee to be a little different. That and I hear they have their manufacturing process under control now and I apparently support is real good if you ever need it.

Kinda disappointed though that the last post in these forums not relevant to the Phazor 600 is from a couple months ago. Are there still Gohbee pilots around here and everyone just uses the Rappy forums or are you all gone gone?

I have my bird together, just waiting on the engine to come in. Will I be able to share this with anyone and maybe hit you up for advice, or are all the Gohbee pilots extinct?

Yup we're still here.
My Stinger 50 is still my favorite of the 10 helis in my fleet.

Unfortunatly I sold my Gohbee and have since switched to electrics. but you will probalby find you will love the Gohbee, and once it is set up you will just fly it! the Gohbee doesn't need any upgrades, if you look over the Raptor forum, 90% of the posts are how do I fix this or that, which upgrade is better. with the Gohbee get a set of carbon paddles and halfway decient servo's and it will out perform the R50 ot of the box. smooth as silk yet so fast on cyclic its awesome. out of all the nitro heli's I have owned the Gohbee is by far my favorite!

I have a stinger with an o.s. .37 It's the only heli that I've had and I've been flying it for two years. I can't speak for other birds but I've had fun with this one. As far as part replacements, I've only replaced with gohbee parts. I like the customer service with this company. A guy once told me to replace parts with raptor parts, but who is he to say to avoid gohbee if he's never flown one? I'm happy to hear that other folks have liked their gohbees over other helis. A TIDBIT, I'm an artist and looking into doing some aerial video in the near future (with my stinger of course).

Glad to hear that your having fun, that is the bottom line after all.

It is not just with Gohbee, you will find that many people will bad mouth a product that they have never even seen let alone tried.
I have seen "Flight reports" of a Gohbee based solely on a blurry photo of a heli that built by someone that had never even seen an RC heli before.

Just have fun and ignore the naysayers. :)

I'm still here. Trying to finish up putting YS50's in both of my Stinger 50's.
