Shop recommendations for JR Parts

[derelict]

Hi

I have an Airskipper 50 for which i might need some parts in the future. JR Parts a quite rare and expensive where i live (switzerland).

Therefore i thought and hope.. that some jr owners could recommend me some online stores with good prices on JR heli parts?

thank you very much

You have to write to RC champ. take a look to my post about the SVE 4S. You have the full international e-mail adress.

Champ is selling parts with 30% discount on the official parts prices on the manual. At end it's very cheap! Unbeatable. I'm surprised every time by the final price of the parts i need.

how fast do they ship ?

[rotodingo]

Well, it could be fast. You send your parts list to Masa. He send you the total price of your order. You send the money by paypal and it's shipping very soon after. They are closed on monday.

Thanks

When you are used to it, your parts could ship the next day after you sent the parts list. You can ask Masa to diectly prepare the package and send you total amount. Usually he send you the parts prices to ask for your approval. Then you receive the total amount the next day. Now i know that JR parts will be discounted by 30% compared to the manual price. So if i'm in a hurry, i ask directly the final price.

Hi Juha,
You said that the RJX X-treme is a clone of Vibe 50? Do you know the differences between Vibe 50 and Voyager 50? Does the parts from the X-treme fits this one also?

I have a complete frame and some parts for the electric, but I dont have any blades, engine or any "out-side parts" as fuel pump or starter....

I assume this will be something for the future.

I get my Venture 90 parts from ishiimokei.com in Japan. Prices WAY lower than UK prices, great and very polite service, web page in both Japaneese and English.

Unfortunately I can´t get Vibe 50 parts in Japan - it's not marketed there......#§¤#"%%

Hi there Fidde

Sorry about the delay, i should check this forum more often. I dont know about the voyager 50
it is much older design than vibe 50 or x-treme 50. What parts are you looking for?

Juha

[Fidde]

Hi, Juha

I don´t know yet if I need any parts. Why I wonder is because I have a local dealer that sells X-treme, if some of the parts might fit. Of cause, there are a "few" years between them...

I wrote that this will be a project for the future....

The future is NOW!

Last Sunday I bought another "old" machine (Quick 50) that seem to be complete with all the servos, gyro, enginge and muffler. I have removed the useable pieces and are going to put them onto my Voyager. We will see how it ends...

I´ll will meanwhile enjoy flying my Hurricane.

Hello,
I have now finally got it in the air. I made my first test run last Friday (after a lot of help) and I felt like a child. I´m not used to the size of the Voyager 50. I normally fly a Hurricane 550.

The test run only last for a few seconds before I noticed that my cooling fan is too small. I have used an old one from another heli that is much smaller than the fan housing in my machine. Both the clutch and the cooling fan is too small.

Where is the best way to get a new clutch (both the upper and lower part) and the fan?

Does anyone know anything about any clone or compability to the newer JP models?

Hi,

You can also try Swissraptor (www.swissraptor.ch (http://www.swissraptor.ch)).
Maybe not as cheap as Ishiimokei, but you have the parts at home
quite fast.
