Hey,

I am not going to spend my vacation in the US this year.

I will be spending some of my vacation at the Pöting Cup in Germany. I was hoping to go to the 3D Masters in the UK, but another Brian from the US is coming for a visit.

I do have 5 weeks of vacation, but a trip to the US costs a small fortune

Not sure why you can't spend another $500 on a kit You buy almost everything else that comes out on the market, hehehehe.

I can probably tell if you would like the kit or not when I get mine. I'm getting the third bearing block with the kit, and I will order the DTDS gear later on. DTDS is not so important to me right now, I can't even autorotate

I just wanted to go with Hirobo, since they seem to know what they are doing to design a good helicopter.

The Sceadu 50 is just what I need.........I think

I have been helping a friend with his Scoobie 50...I don't think the M/R gear is totally to blame. The frames flex badly. The M/R bearings are no closer together than other designs...the third bearing block just makes the frames less flexible where the main shaft sees it ! Many other designs have the same problem, X-cells...Robbe Milli...etc. The same stiffing can be done if you lock the frames together at the bottom with a spreader bar on the landing gear (see the kits offered for the above mentioned helis)! This is of course my opinion...Carl has a couple of gallons thru it after the spreader mod and not a sign of gear wear...he's ordered the DTSTSTRE thingy and the third bearing block from Altec (I wish Robbe worked that hard for it's customers...) but so far; taking the flex out of the frames has kept the gear wear to 0%... FWIW. Chris
