Bandit

I heard that the Bandit may come with or without motor. Not sure on speed control. Hopefully will be kitting by the end of January.

Question...

Is the canopy in several pictures come painted as it is shown?

...Once upon a time there were Nitros, flybars and frequency pins...

So the two identical in pictures that Nick and Bobby had were special done or where those in fact decals??


Next Q. Has it been confirmed by anyone if this fits in the 450 Align case?

At ihobbyexpo Tim told me that it was to be priced around 400$. And the canopies were painted, I think that just may be the team mini air paint scheme.

$400 for real? Well that is not to bad actually imho, if it includes painted FG canopy and is ready to rock minues a motor and esc that is pretty fair imho.

Well, alot of heli's look like a lot of other heli's too. There are only so many ways you can make a heli work.

That is a prototype. The head is nothing like a BEAM. A beam is a better copy of a trex. What is so new about that?

That carbon fibre setup for main grips looks like something straight from the Red Green show without the duct tape. It may be functional but yipes it hurts the eyes to look at. WRONG!

EDIT: I saw the Bandit in person for the first time at the E-fest event in Champaign, IL (2/9). I stand corrected. The carbon grips are very nice looking indeed. The pictures on the MA website do not do not do this heli justice. It is a winner!

I Think the CF grips look nice and Im sure they are very firm. MA doesnt usually do something for no reason. What are you scared of a little carbon fiber?

scolye, someone who flies Audacity helis wouldn't have a clue what a decent heli looks like let a lone flies like, so take you negative comments elsewhere.

Didn't mean to start a flame war. Nobody appreciates it when someone calls their baby ugly.

"Overall" the heli looks great and I'm sure will be a great performer.

Does anyone know what the perceived benefits are over an all aluminum grip?

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Sorry for the upset.
