Is it just me or is xheli really falling behind the times?

Wow, as I look to move forward in the hobby, I took another look at xheli today and it just seems to me they are totally stagnant.  They have never had a TT option for their 500, they do not have an EXI 600, they do not offer any flybarless parts or electronics.  Just seems to me they are on the verge of becomming totally irrelevant?

  I agree with you Wayne they seem to be targeting alot of low end crap anymore. Their stock of spare parts for what they sell isn"t very good anymore either. I don't even go ther anymore& they got me into this sport. RM54

Yeah, I did a lot with them early on too.  I would always prefer to order from them than HK because they are domestic and would get packages in a lot faster.  Of course their customer service was just as bad as HK and quality only a hair better, still sad to see them just fall by the wayside.  Good thing I have enough helis and planks I am not waiting on HK orders before being able to go to the field any more.  I always have something ready to fly

Xheli has never been a favourite supplier for me, things are going to change here shortly anyway which will slow down all imported kits and parts.

Our money grabbing government is about to introduce a 10% gst tax on all imported goods.

Before we could import anything for up to $1000 before the tax was applied.

I must check if my passport is up to date.

    Governments never seem to shrink, do they?  Always growing, always more bloated as time goes by.
