Check parts pricing before buying

I broke my rule, I bought before researching parts cost.
Example; aluminum brackets for landing gear $26.00 (WTH!)
Great flying heli, super lightweight and quiet, but I would not buy it again simply because of parts cost. Heck, all the parts are not even available….

I really like this helicopter and how it flies. It is stable, tracks like it is on rails, and handles 3D flight just like its bigger brother the 5.8. I have both the 5.5 Gemini and the 5.8 Heritage and really like them both. I do have to say there were some flaws in the craftmanship of the canopy, but not a deal breaker for me. The boom did get the black paint scratched when inserting it, but it doesn't affect the flight performance. Overall, the kit is great, looks great in the air and on the bench, and flies as I have come to expect from Tron. It is a fun heli and a great size for both stability and agility.

I havent started the build yet. But do have some complaints at a glance.

-1 star for quality control.

Whoever put the sticker on the front did so with a slight cant off center. Notice the 'G' is closer to the left...but the 'I' is closer to the right. It's even more noticeable in person when you see the center facet angle on the canopy not running down the middle of the lettering (camera doesn't pick it up). An Eyesore I will spot every time I am at the bench and people want to admire this thing.

Some of you may not care, but I went with Tron expecting premium quality build and to find someone hand planted a sticker then put a clear coat over top making it permanent just aggravates.
