JR Heli Vibe - Airskipper - Sylphide - Venture > Spares to keep on hand for Vibe 50?

I've had my LHS order me a Vibe 50, and I'm wondering what spares I should get to keep on hand. On my torque tube 600N, I always kept spare tail gears, along with torque tube, boom, and the common shafts. What should I be stocking for the Vibe?

I haven't had any really bad crashes yet but a couple hard landing's... I have yet to strip out the tail gear's on eather end. I have gone through some landing strut's, mainshaft, Frame cross member #960732, and one side of the frame's. so far thats it... It's a pretty tuff bird.

Minimum spares:

996185 TAIL PINION SHAFT ASSEMBLY (the lower 17T gear is the fuse of the whole tail power system)
996203 TAIL OUTPUT SHAFT SET(usually gets knocked out)
996171 FRONT BED FRAME (it has the front frame savers)
996166 BODY MOUNT PLATE (back frame savers)

Now besides that, boom, TT, landing gear, main shaft, spindle and flybar will come handy sooner or later.

Personally I opted for having spare kits. Makes rebuilding a breeze when you have everything in your hand.

Hi guys

I haven't had any crash parts needed for my Vibe, but have ordered a second kit. This is probably going to start out as a 'spares kit' and end up being a second complete heli.....if i know myself. I have got the servos, gyro and Rx already and the kit isn't here yet!!!

LOL OK

Ok, I am wetting for 2 more canopies; after that I will show you all paint jobs designs so you order your canopy with your name on it. I think he will send 20-25 canopies to Heli proz or Ready Heli he may send some with your name on it, let’s wait to see the finals designs. I will also inform Forest aka Obiwan, other wise he will kill me if I don’t considerate him.


Here your Man!!! Hahahahaha


After all… hobby goes first!!! Here an example of what you will sacrifice for some nice Canopies!! But you have a good reason! Awesome canopies for FREE!!!! Hahahahha LOL!!!
