...Upgrades...

Head Stiffener
A definate must have.. that's cheap


A head stiffener reduces the coning effect of the blades, so forward flight is possible.

Simply created with a small piece of .040 aluminum, and drilling two holes.

Main Blades
Spruce and Balsa


New main blades reduce the coning effect that causes problems with forward flight.

Like90 Wooden blades..  Very durable, and they look cool too

Heat sinks
helps keep the motors running


Heat sinks are highly recommended to extend motor life
