      Cool...still bring some of those halo blades... would love to try them in the mini protos and 700e...

      And with learning autos I'll need some spares...


      Good luck with the 500... they look like an awesome machine... I have only just picked up my first goblin... z it's a 570 and I'm loving it....

      Keep us updated...

      Have fun you have built a gobby before so you should have the air frame done in about 2 maybe 2.5 hours.

This I was told a was a pain in the ass and they were right, first I put one in and it got really tight towards putting it all the way in so, next 3 I got a drill and opened up the holes a little, tried to remove the first one and stripped the head of the screw :( ill continue the build but will have to drill this screw out :(
