Ok so I am fishing for information which I probably won't get but is that the end of the 500 size for good or has SAB got something hiding in the back room???

Thanks for the quick reply, even if it wasn’t really what I wanted to hear. But now I can move forward with the process of getting and setting up a G570.

Thinking about joining a club though.. Any suggestions?

I've contacted a guy from the warringah rc society.. and when I meet the guys from Hawkesbury model air sports at 3dx Australia they were pretty easy going.. Just approx 50minute drive to get out there using the m2 and m7.. So was thinking maybe something closer..

Cheers,
Anthony.

Welcome to the hobby, we might be a bit far away, only a 10hr drive but worth the trip

Good news on the parts, I love my org 500, about 2000 flights if not more, would hate to have it be retired, given that I only just retired my Fusion 50 last week after I finaly ran out of bits , good news it was replaced by a 700 KSE
