    Hi guys,

    I'm Ben and I fly in Victoria. I have met a few of you guys already at funflys and F3N comps.
    I currently fly a Goblin 700 Comp and Gaui X5.

      Ben greetings from Poland. Show us your X5. I striped front umbrella gears twice in my X5 today. Probably mesh was not right. Did you notice easier gears stripping in hot weather? Maybe you use belt?

      Anyway I like my X5 a lot due to low weight and precission.

      Haha thanks guys! I fly in Bairnsdale at the new state field BADMAC. Yeah you might have guessed I fly for Zen RC, they are a great bunch of guys.
      Nice heli Utrinque. The X5 is a great heli, I have never had trouble with the gears stripping, I have had about 900 flights and never had any strip in the air. With the gear mesh I usually just push the boom in firmly, rotate the head a few turns to make sure it can spin freely, and then tighten it up.
      Here are some pics of my helis. There have been a few changes to the X5 since this picture was taken. P1040773.JPG P1050102.JPG
