Everything went great. No probs, the brand new engine fired right up. I ran it rich for breaking/running-in reasons. It's definitely well worth the money. Kyosho came out with a balls to the wall budget priced 50 size heli.

LoL @ td

Thanks

You're use to the gasser :cool: Eventually I'll get a gasser. ;) For now I'll stay with the np helis and my trex ep brushless. Glad to hear that you located the prob with your predator.

Buying a heli will always be a tough decision. I've never owned a Gohbee, but have the Cal30 and the Cal5. I have no major complaints or issues with them. IMO eccpm is the way to set-up the Caliber helis.
