    To assist with clarity relating to the recent announcement fro AleeSUSA, i will briefly post some information on the direction of the company AleeSRC.

    Over the last 2 weeks, AleeSUSA have been involved in lengthy negotiations between the investors and the organisation from Hong Kong. The negotiation formed part in attempt to preserve the brand "ALeeS" and maintain Charley designing their helicopters. Unfortunately the effort had failed and the company has decided to move on without the support of Charley and the US Team.

    This news has been extremely concerning to us and many people within the industry, however we have decided to support the brand, that the wonderful folks from the US like Charley Stephens, Scott Gentry, Kevin Williams and all of the great team members we have come to know and love, have developed.

    Now, the company will be making new changes to the branding along with new packaging and marketing designs. Our passionate team here in Australia have pulled together and i can confirm that we will continually build on the momentum that we are generating.

    Parts and kits will continually reach our shores shortly and you will start to see things continue to build.

    On behalf of AleeS Australia we would like to wish all the Team from AleeSUSA all the best and i want to personally thank the US team for welcoming us in the beginning and showing unparalleled support through it all.

    We will not fall.

    Jeff

      Thanks for keeping us informed. Keeping the lines of communications open with the customers, is paramount. im sure the re-assurances you have been giving are apreciated by all alees owners, and this sort of client care and putting minds at ease, will only help develop the helicopter.
      I wish some other companies, not just heli, would take a leaf out of jeffs book,
      Thanks
      Simon

      Its refreshing to have the truth revealed rather than the innuendo that's been floating around. A truly well built and designed helicopter. Should be an exciting year ahead!

      Yeah mate we all have them on our machines.

      They remove all play out of the head but being very rigid it also makes the heli feel very rigid and crisp.
      If thats the feel your after then they're the go.

      If you like a little bit softer feel the stock plastic radius arms are more than up to the job

      I don't, and I probably will not get one, the standard is good, and, If I become an amazing pilot I might need one, until then....

      Everything is the same except the name @Jeff B has parts now and another order is on its way.

      The name Alees has changed only

      You forgot:
      - Mikado Logo 700
      - Mikado Logo 690
      - Mikado Logo 800
      That have a quiet, but constant following. I suggest Mikado are here to stay.

      The challenge is to support a brand that will be around for some time. I have sold so many brands and the need to develop and change the existing design to keep things fresh ultimately affects the retailer. My dealings with the Evo factory have been challenging however they have thr drive to produce one of the biggest brands in the world.
