Being married only makes it more fun! I limit my spending to $200 a month but its very frustrating seeing everyone else with nice new toys.

Yep.. LOVE mine.. just scared to death I'll pile the bird in and mess it up...the bearing blocks are REALLY nice too.. I have 10 sets of bearings in spares as well..
One of my 500's sports the tail block, bottom plate, and main blocks. I like the head but only when I'm sure I'm flying more then I crash....

You got that totally wrong. Real trouble comes after you get that ring on her finger...

Lol..atleast they are cheap. If you want the tail guides just message him if he doesnt have them up for sale he will get some. He sells quite a bit. I requested them and he got them up in a day or 2. Great guy to deal with. Several from here bought from him.
