SBK Veteran Location: NE Ohio
| You know, I don't know -- whether you can feel the differences or not depends on your skill level, I think.
The alum outer part of the swashplate has more precise, wear-resistance metal link balls vs the molded on plastic balls which brake easier and may be worn down quicker. But then, there are people who are perfectly happy with the plastic balls.
All ballraced joints, including the mixing arms, makes all the linkages fit well but loosy-goosy, eliminating lots of frictions. Better than using bushings in these joints.
CF vertical fin is not just for bling. It is a lot tougher than the stock plastic one, which may brake easily when the tail hit the ground on hard landings.
Of course, all these can be upgraded when "upgrade opportunities" occur.
Eventually, you will spend more than that $180, either over time in installments, or all at once for $180 now.
But, you are right, for $216, you can't beat the value for a 3D-able Logo 10. |
