  Riz that it from someone how has more than his fair share of crashes servos Will survive a lot more than you think just make sure they still work though out there full range smoothly you should be fine    But Spare's are priceless

I use that gyro before and don't like it. Luckily I am able to sell it. Problem with that gyro, the servo creep.
I use HK GA-250 on my 2 helis, and not bad at all.

I also use the Hk  Ga-250. I have one on my HK 250GT heli and it works great. You can't beat the price.It's also pretty easy to set up.

Thankyou to both you guys for the heads up,

I ended up purchasing the ga-250, seems to have decent reviews - and it made me think why not!

I also ordered the turnigy keychain cam, came to £14 all in all including express delivery!

Just read a review on this on HK it said this

"5 stars.......this heli is perfect,i am a 3d pro and bought this little heli to fly indoors on a tuesday...exactly the same as the trex se and handles 3d just as good....
my set up

turnigy 2627 Brushless outrunner
800mah 3c lipo
turnigy 25a plush esc
telebee gyro.......futaba s9257 tail servo with Z kink in the push rod....
Hextronik MG-14 Metal gear servo....a little long but wow what a good servo and good centering...

regards nel"

Hope this helps dude    Good luck and congrates on the kiddy 

Im thinking of building one for the fact of rainy days, windy days and the fact that parts will be cheaper than my HK450 xD

[Riz]

my stuff still has not arrived!!!!!

contacted hobbyking and they said theres some sort of technical issue with EMS!

i have to wait a week for an update!

im truely pissed off - i know these things happen and i should just chillout but iv been counting down the days and waiting for the bloody postman!

 

[WillSwain95]

I NEVER use EMS for that reason mate! Air Parcels reach us in UK in about a week, week and a half. Well always for me anyway... I got one once from HobbyKing with EMS and it took i think 28 days... Save money and go with Air Parcels!!

I know it's  annoying... But unfortunately there is nothing you can do 

Keep us updated when ya got the stuff man! Can't wait to see this build thread!! 

[Riz]

Gota update for you guys!

One of my parcels has arrived thank god, which i ordered after two days of the 1st one which was the ems express!

The one thats arrived was their new royal mail option.

[WillSwain95]

Ahh good news then! How long did it take for the Royal Mail one?? My order's on that and It's 2 days into shipping atm! Can't wait to see this build man! After i've got my 450 going im gonna do a 250 budget build 

[Riz]

The royal mail package took like 9 days dude, still wondering where the ems package is! Tracking number dont bring up any details still.

[papascotimini]

That's pretty fast. I had one airmail package which took 4 months to get here. Most of the time it takes a month, but I never tried EMS though, prefer to wait and have more money to buy spare parts.

Happy Flying

Papa

[Riz]

Another royal mail package rolled up today!

Too bad it was just the lipo lol

Im pleased there fonding there way sooner rather then later!

Im only using the royal mail option from now on!
