I have been searching ebay for a week or so, and i keep coming across things from stateline hobbies.... I have searched for web reviews and haven't found anything about them.

I dont want to order something, then it turn out to be crap :bs:bs

I am looking at this conversion kit... canopy, cf boom, and skids....

I like the looks but i would like to know if it will break on the first flight :mad:

check it out : Extreme 3 conversion kit, stateline hobbies

Well they have over 1100 transactions and most of their complaints (95.9% rating) seem to be time and email related. Some didn't get their parts, but if they are dropshipping out of china then that could be the issue there.

One question though. Why would you want to pay $50+ to upgrade something that cost $60-80 any way?

Sorry, my bad. I was thinking the blade CX.

I have the Xtreme conversion on my Lama V3, and it has made it much more durable and looks less toy-ish in my opinion. Besides, if you want to put more money into your coax, go for it. I see people put $4000 stereos in $500 cars, or $3000 rims on $1000 cars. Whatever floats your boat...
