    A few days ago, I received a pretty good deal on a Goblin 570 kit from a friend of mine. Brand new still sealed in the box for $450. I could not say no to that, so I bought it. Since I`m not really heavy into electrics, I need to order a few things to get it flying. So I will be ordering those things tomorrow, along with a couple sets of Zeal 570mm blades.... after I`ve finished flying. I have flown a few Goblins( all of which belonged to the friend I got mine from) and they do fly great. I won`t be able to fly it at events, but it will be fun to fly at the local field. :)

      What a beautiful baby you have, there... I'm sure it'll give you some good times

      $450 for a NIP 570?!? Damn good deal!

      Do you have any flight videos, @Geena ? (not of this heli, I know you havent installed the electronics on it, yet... but, just any flight video? :))

      Have fun and thanks for sharing

      Wow, I just nearly paid that amount for a motor! That is an awesome deal @Geena ! (mind you the motor i have is an awesome one as well!). Today as i will announce in another thread, @Crash Heligod decided to eat my goblin 4530 LE motor. @Crash Heligod destroyed it towards the end of a rather hard collective style flight, it came down smoking... Lucky for me I had the team from zen on hand and they provided me with a xnova. I will report back on weather it can take the punishment.... the Scorpion could not sadly... it was a powerhouse but just could not hold up.

      Oh wow @Geena, watching your flying you are moving along quite nicely. The snap transtion (1/2 piroflip quick pushout) is an awesome trick no one talks about but adds so much aggression to the flight when done well. I noticed you did that right of field. If you can do that transition from any orientation it will help you when you come to piroflip. You are also flying closer to the ground now and the backwards flying is looking straighter as well. I am really impressed, keep going!....

      I had to practice 1/2 piroflip on the sym for months before I dared to apply them to my 800.

      Geena, you do them natural. I like your flight videos.

      I wonder why at my field only boys play with planks and helis?
