Here are a few upgrades I found useful for this little Gaui 200...

CNC boom mount 203631
CF tail boom 203196
CF landing gear and skids 203680
K&T CNC servo mount KT10023

The original plastic boom mount and aluminum tube bent very easily and rotated easily, no problems now.

The CF landing gear and skids just feel better and take the occasional not so perfect landing very well....

The CNC tail servo mount is a lot better than the plastic original and makes setting up the tail a lot easier -plus the servo is in a better position now.

Readyheli for most things, the tail servo mount came from Flying Hobby (Tiawan)

Do be careful, they list the 100 and 200 parts together in the upgrade listing. The boom lengths are different between the 100 and 200 but the diameter is the same so it works. I also got the 100 CF silver vert. tail fin there, I just like the looks better than the "batman" looking stock 200 one...

Does that tail fin give you anymore clearance than the stock one? The stock tail fin alows very little clearance.

No, the clearance is exactly the same as the stock one - I know what you mean, it's really easy to skim the tail rotor blades. I have found it is a little easier to see when flying it outside compared to the stock one though. It is really fast in forward flight and gets small real fast....

I got a MicroHeli tail fin today at my LHS made for a blade CPP, silver CF. I'm gonna trim it down and drill a couple holes to give mine more clearance. Unless it looks too stupid.
