I am flying one of Helibug Conversion made for TZ90-V2...I agree about the price, but when i received the kit, i was surprised by the quality of material and machining....

A+ Quality material and machining.....as the manufacturer says, the kit is manufactured in the USA, that can be the reason of a little high price....

I am almost 4 gallons on it and all i can say is WOW!...its as good as any other gasser in the market...Anyway, Just few comments from one happy customer.

The Trex700 Gasser pictured above is also using Helibug Conversion.

gasser man does a conversion for a raptor or T-rex 700 I don't know if you could adapt that to fit..

thanks ! ...I've already got several reasonably big (50 size and above) helis in my hangar (storeroom) but no gasser yet.

I've got a 1/8 F1 Tunnel hull powerboat powered by a 26cc gasser (Yet to run in) and thats my only contact with anything gassy or requires a CDI unit !

I believe variety is the spice of life and the current favour is composites F3X gliders

Over here, we only got from Jan to Mar to enjoy slope gliding and after that, its back to regular 'Poke holes in the sky' 3D planes and 'stick banging' heli flying.

Right now, Nothing would fill my soul as much as a 3m Lighting Fast F3F slope racing composite bird !!!!

Honestly it was a monetary system like that one described above which helped to get Germany out of the great depression a lot earlier than many other countries.

I Also read some where that it is widely believed that through out history recessions have been unnecessarily prolonged by saving your money and not continuing to spend. I forget how i found it. However this was at the time that the Australian Prime minister was giving out an economic stimulus to keep the country going into recession. It relates to the underconsumption theory.

Either way this is not an economics chat forum, my intention was trying to help you buy a nice big heli.....

It's always food for your soul to fill it up with something meaningful like a big gasser heli.

You mean people actually fly a heli not using Idle Up 2? Wow, Learn something new every day.

Experience is a hard teacher. First comes the test, then the lesson.

...it wouldn't fit into my car !!!

lol. I have the perfect solution to that which would make many people happy.

Buy a new car. Think about it. You buy a new car, the salesman gets a commission and is able to buy his kids some toys which in turn help keep the staff at the local toy shop in a business.

You buy a heli which makes you happy, and also increases sales for HK, so that makes them happy too.

You sell your old car because you now no longer need it, the person who purchased it is happy because they now have a better car than they did previously.

Your partner is happy because now they have a bigger car to show off to her friends, when she turns up to the gym.

Also your boss is happy because now you have to work more to pay for the car, and the heli you just bought. And your happy because your getting more money in your bank account every week.

Logic, very somiphistimicated logic.

Doh !! ...my head hurts !!!

...and I would like to norminate you for the post of Head of the Ministry of Economy !!! ...Obama wants YOU !!!
