WTB Dragonus parts

[skunkworx]

Hey gang,

I recently got a Dragonus II on trade, but I kinda got jipped as the heli was a bit crunched up when I recieved it. I only need a few parts and I can get her up in the air and see if I really like it or not. Parts needed:

Head block
guide pins
Bearings (blade grips/main shaft/tail shaft etc...)
grub screws for main shaftThese parts could probably use a swap-out as well:

Tail shaft
belt
swash
Any Misc. head parts you might have sitting aroundIf you basically have the whole thing I might buy that too, but price will depend on what's on it. I don't really need servos, RX/TX or a gyro, so a barebones kit will be fine, but I won't complain about any extras. Metal parts are welcome too, but I'm trying to keep costs at a minimum wherever possible. One man's junk might be this man's treasure. :)
Thanks!!!

Awesome! Any crashes or damage to it? Other spares included? Thanks! Looking forward to the pics.

It has been crashed a few times.Right now it has a bent mainshaft and hobby lobby was out last time I checked.Everything else is in good order.Two canopys and extra landing gear.

No problem on the main shaft. The one have on mine is actually good to go. Are any of the bearings notchy or need replacing? That's what I'm having the most problems with on the one I already have. Too many different things on it and I'm not quite sure if I can get her put back together without screwing it up. I'm sure any other weird stuff on there I can scavenge off the old bird for this one. I take it you want to keep those servos? I've got the Align ones on mine and I don't know how they stack up compared to the 65MG's like in my Trex, so if you'd like to include those, how much would you want altogether?

Lastly, what size batteries do you use? I've only got 2200's and they seemed like a tight fit so I was figuring maybe 1800's??? Thanks!

The bearings are fine.I use tri-flow regularly.I am keeping the 65s to go in a hdx 450 that is on the way.More compatible with align parts which i can pick up at my LHS.I also found some spare parts bags with frame screws and a couple of rod sets.If you are interested just PM me.No hurry,I had intended to get it back in the air but I have a couple other projects going right now.
i have been using FP 2170s but slightly larger packs will fit

That's ok. Good luck with the new HDX. Parts are actually decently priced, and they perform just as well as the Aligns (or at least the same until you get into some real serious 3D).

Here's a good place to get parts if you ever need them:

I got a CNC aluminum head for my Blade CP PRo from them Awesome quality stuff for excellent prices. Is the model you are getting the V2 or V3?

If you are in no rush about the sale, then neither am I, but I will definately take it. I'm mostly waiting for tax money to come back and I'll post on here or send you a PM when I can send money. OK?

Thanks Todd

By any chance do you have any plastic parts for it? (I'm assuming no because it's the CF version, but I figured I would ask just in case)

[JURESTI]

hi..do you still have this model? (dragonus) I fly one, and need a parts bird.

[hopntod]

Yes,i still have it.

[skunkworx]

Oh crap! I forgot about this post! I'll sell any extra parts you might need as well. I'm never going to get mine off the ground now, but it's the plastic parts, not metal.
