Found this US Retailer out of Mira Loma, CA in my browsing selling some interesting gear {LOL} Well it ain't from the other side of the Pacific so at least there's that QUADS, Multi-Rotor Heads, Multi-Rotor Tails, Stabilization Systems and 3-Axis Gyro's just to name few that interested me Anyhowz thought them worthy a LOOK-SEE and posting here for future reference ---> www.cnchelicopter.com [shadow=Orange,left]w00d[/shadow] EDIT: Added store front (home page) http://www.cnchelicopter.com/servlet/StoreFront
{LMAO} Only thing on this side is offices and maybe a warehouse ... just guessing but in all likelihood I'm probably right. Look a little closer at the site and it's all pretty low level (price) stuff ... but hey there's some good stuff hidden within jst need to be on your game as far as buying goes and as you would with any Asian retailer across the Pacific ...

Well that's disappointing, the whole time I assumed CNCHelicopter was a couple of guys in a small shop with CNC machine tools who were "Living the american dream", but it's just another big mindless company from somewhere instead
That's exactly what I thought when I first visited the website. Then I read some of the product descriptions and thought, well OK, they are illiterate, but can they operate a CNC. Now the product descriptions make sense.
Hey they almost had me believing until I ran the "whois" then it became all too clear ... well it at least explained the BAD Winglish But going by what the forums are saying and the few forums I did look at they are apparently pretty quick at answering eMail queries and prone to fast shipping so it's not all bad
I didn't mean to sound like I was picking on them, they do have some interesting stuff. I am just always surprised at the language I read in a lot of online shops. You'd think they could hire someone to proof-read their websites. But I have to also say I am often astonished at the lousy editorial work I read in major publications too so maybe stuff like that just isn't important anymore.
I didn't think you was picking on them, although maybe I was. Well not the products at least ... Meh, allot of the times my own "Engrish" is NO better! It is an interesting point you bring up, even on sites that I know are North American they simply Copy & Paste the manufactures description and we just know some of those products are Asian because of the BAD English that gets copied ... After your post yesterday it got me interested and I found this http://www.ef.com/epi/ Apparently Asia (China) is not the worst, English proficiency is related to the amount of education one receives As for the products I am interested in some of their Tail Mods look interesting, thinking for my UH1 as this looks like it would work ---> Looks like a better solution than what came w/ my KIT !?! [EDIT:] Well it was a nice thought while it lasted! Still an interesting idea in itself but as far has using for the UH1 the measurements are ALL off, in short it's too tall[/EDIT] Also I thought Bill might be interested in some of their Multi-Bladed Tails ... ... Although there don't seem to be any gear driven Tail Casings the few Multy-Blade's for the 500 can be used with ones existing Tail Case ---> Here <---
It is a nice looking unit. It is interesting how they have moved the tail control from under the front of the assembly to the rear. ???
+1 Yoda and +1 Bill Yes I also like the "gearing two-belt system" and I also like the "tail control linkage" ... to say the least it's a sweet setup that even gives me idea's, it inspires yeah
