Damn it!

My belt (i.e. DX7 and all the bling) has been out of service for a month now mainly due to the time I am spending in Kuwait (back all of next week again!)

So, tonight ran 3 batteries through the stock one I have built and had a glitch (was about 50 metres away) causing it to nosedive. Now I have 2 helis not flyable. GRRRR.

By the time I get back I should have everything needed to get them both in the air and may have a Raptor 30 also :):YeaBaby::thumbup:

Back to Sim flying for the moment though :arggg::arggg::arggg:

Dump the Belt CP. I have one. I also own a T-Rex 450. Guess which one I fly...The Belt is a duct collector now. Save and invest in a Rex. It will be the best investment you ever made. Learning to fly will also be much more enjoyable

Ahh yes my friend, but we enjoy modding our belts so they fly as well as a trex 450 se
for a fraction of the price.

The thing with the belt is that although its quirky and some of its features arn't quite all there you have the basics for a good 450 heli for a very low price:)

I've learned a lot modding my heli and enjoyed it and it's still cost me a lot less than a
Trex and flies great:thumbup:

I've actually found my Belt to be cheaper to repair than my co-axials. I do agree that Esky electronics can be a little flakey.
