Well, yeah, I just had to go out and get a 600e, black carbon, of course. Elec's will be here next week.

(This is on-topic, 'cause it's interrupted my GAUI 200 studies for a moment or so.)

We were just teasing Buzz 'bout this 'eh???, well guess what...

OMG! Just like buying a full-sized airplane! I'd rather have bought a LearJet (no, not really ;-)

The lawyers will tell me when it's safe to come out and talk.., still working out details on the battery charging station's EPA requrements, cost of shipping LiPo's with wide load permits, price of diesel, Kid's demands for institutianalization, closing separation financials with g.f., etc....

'Till then, building my 200 and having a good time, will send pict's, soon...

Have you decided to leave your loyal flock? Very disappointing. :Bliss

Who will fill this forum with words of wisdom in the future?

Hey, thanks guys!!

The 600 is just part of my plan to keep flying heli's till I drop. The 'rex 600 will do neat stuff, so will the 'rex 450. Multiple helis mean we can still fly after the crash, preserving irreplacable quality time. I just purchased vertically, rather than horizontally. The Gaui 200 is integral though, as I've got a hope of flying inside (somewhere, maybe not the house), AND I can take it on trips, which is like 80% of my time.

I know how the upper end of hobbies work, it's the killer end of the 80/20 rule. Everything is ten times more expensive. But the cost of the (gotta work on a name for the beast) 600 has been absolutely unbelievable!!! Also, just on unpacking it, I know that it will never be flown anywhere near civilians... Guess what I'll be flying most often...

No, I'm not leaving, In fact I don't even post on the 600 or 450 boards. So give up, your'e all stuck with me ;-)

I found you guys whilst looking for the Pixie/Zap/Shogun whatever the 100 was. Just never left. I've been on lots of forums, for work and other hobbies. This is by far the best, most informative, and most entertaining.
