It's greatly appreciated bro! We are now up to $148.98 USD with just 3 donations! I think Gaba better start looking for "THE" Helicopter since he is the proclaimed "Deal Master"
Everyone, I want to thank each and every one of you that have donated. Also, the first post has been updated with the new total.

I imagine that with payday being tomorrow, more people might be donating.
If a really good deal is found and you guys need to act quickly to secure it, be sure to post here since I might be willing to help out more if need be.
Right now, however, I am saving up for a DX8 and some other parts to finish my 500. My lady only lets me allocate $300/mo to my hobbies. >.<

I should be fine as it is. I have none of the servos, and no gyro... actually I have a GY401 sitting around, but I liked the response from the Quark gyro enough that I am probably going to get another. Also, still need a receiver.
I'll probably pick up a receiver from the LHS on Saturday or something, and maybe the servos.
The weather has been bad the past few days, I still need to paint my canopy. I've never airbrushed before, so this might be... interesting.

Actually, I am off all next week. If you still have your corcs membership we could meet up out there after you get off some day and swap the edge and lights and do some flying.

That's cool, same offer as before applies about getting the edge now and giving me the lights later.

I do appreciate that bro, but if I have something and didn't pay for it, I end up forgetting. Not intentionally, it just happens lol. I will get the lights soon for the reef tank. I think we will be filling it back up tonight and trying to get more of the chlorine out of it and I will talk to the wife about ordering the new lights. Just depends on finances.

That is correct, the heli will be in my possession but will belong to Rc-Help.com. The heli will be used for many new instructional videos including tuning and refurbishing a used heli. There will be a lot of good that will come from this new heli and when we exhaust all options with it, we will have to figure out what to do with it.

We are now up to $260.04 in donations received! We are almost there for the heli that JESSE found and Gaba got pictures of & looked at if that is what we are wanting to go with. We will of course still have to get servos, but if I read it correctly, it has a $300 engine, a $400 frame, and a $250 gyro! Talk about a bitchin deal!!!

Alright everyone, I have been talking to Gaba and I think we need to make a decision on this helicopter. We are $90 short as of right now but this is a deal that I don't think the forum can let be passed up. This is an Align helicopter with 3 canopies, two heads, 3GX gyro, Good engine and other things that I'm not thinking of. This helicopter as it sits now would run the forum over a grand easily to purchase everything new.
Since this is the "Rc-Help Helicopter", I need you guys to make the decision. I would love to just tell Gaba to pull the trigger on it, but it's not my decision, it's yours! We will not find another deal like this again, I'm sure of that. So what do you say guys?
