Quality of MA machines is outstanding...be prepared for it to quickly become you favorite brand and heli.

I know the RJX will work but you need to get an OEM head on that thing!...

I'll be using an I2 head before I spend that kind of money on the ma head

MXRACERX43 · 03-10-2012, 10:59 PM

The MA head is $234

The I2 is $296

From an sthetics standpoint alone and having a matching finish on all the parts I would go MA.

That's with a swash I wouldn't need,I know ma has great quality but I highly doubt the ma head is better than the I2 head.just to expensive for a factory head

MXRACERX43 · 03-10-2012, 11:16 PM

To each there own. Not questioning the quality of I2 products. I have one of there swash's on my 500 and it is outstanding!

However, I personally don't see any aftermarket parts as an "upgrade" to a MA machine and prefer them stock.

Either way your gonna love your new machine!

growmaster4 · 03-10-2012, 11:28 PM

I would usually be on board with you,but I can't see paying that much for so basic a head,if I had a kit that was fbl from the jump I would leave it be,but considering the I2 head would be around the same price with no swash its a no brainer.I2 is a upgrade for any heli,if I had a tdr I would try to fit a I2 head,I think they are the best money can buy

Corvette & Copter Guy · 03-12-2012, 02:22 AM

I have used I2 stuff on my old Trex 500 and the quality/customer service is great just as the MA stuff is. If I was to use ANY other head on my Furion 6 it would be I2 for sure. I understand your point as to getting the better deal not needing the swash.

Flew her with a old vbar in 4.0 and it flew great,can't wait to take her out in the morning for a proper trashing

growmaster4 · 04-03-2012, 10:34 PM

After a few flight I really love this heli,picked up a black sensor vbar to try 5.2 on it and new fbl head should be here shortly

growmaster4 · 04-07-2012, 12:11 AM

got the vbar ready to go,first flight on 5.2 sunday if weather permits

growmaster4 · 05-09-2012, 11:13 PM

New head came in for my Furion from I2,maiden tomorrow.
I see how people fall in love with these birds,its now my favorite even over my 700.been taking it to work and flying daily at lunch time,luckily there's a nice field 2 minutes from work
