      Looks like the release might be in a October before it arrives to the US. I need a heli this month so maybe I will go for the chase after it has been around for awhile.

      The ACME hobbies website says they're in stock but I haven't heard anything about my pre-order... I tried to PM them yesterday but haven't heard back yet.

      Spoke to Eric from KDS last night, they are shipping out to dealers now. So im guessing ACME will have the pre orders in stock any second (coming via air mail) with the main stock to follow via snail mail.

      Been flying one of mine on 385mm blades. For those that like super low disc loading you will love it! even at lower HS its got heaps of punch. really needs a stretch kit tho. Not sure how long the pool little drive train will last with the extra load. the 385 blades are not just longer, They are a cut down 430 blade.

      Or any of the other retailers like Yourhobby, they are putting together a combo kit with the KDE motor i believe.
