You are good to go with an 8.18 ratio with the YS91SR.

Running the same thing myself.

I just cancel the order at heliproz and ordered the kit at Zoomsheli since they have it in stock (the kit should be here next week). The reason I wanted it right away b/c I could not sleep well for two weeks, + fooling around on the internet at work searching for informations to help me to decide which one I should buy between (T rex 700 vs Stratus). Now, I can't change my mind for T rex 700N anymore. I hope I don't regret about my decision. THE GRASS IS ALWAYS GREENER ON THE OTHER SIDE.

I'll 2nd what Alex Fong said. Don't waste your time on those JR 770 gyro's... yes they work but way to much fiddling! Go with a GY611 combo. Best out there still!

Zoomsheli told me the kit will be available next monday and I should receive it by next week, But I don't know if he was telling the true. Heliproz told me that the kit will be available in about 3 or 4 more weeks. I called MA and they told me they will have to order it and the kit will be availbe in 2 to 3 weeks. I will be pissing off if I dont receive it by next week.

If Zooms doesn't have a kit in stock right now, I do not believe they will be getting one before anyone else. Sorry to say, but if HP is out and Ron Lund is out, and zooms doesn't have a kit IN STOCK, you will be waiting.

Man, that would be suck b/c I cancel my order at heliproz and pay $55 more for the kit at zoomsheli just b/c he told me that they guarantee they will have it in stock by next monday. if I don't recieve the kit by next week. Do you think I can cancel my order to save $55?

Hi All.
In order to allay anyones concerns about Zooms Heli. I ordered Tracy's kit (complete) on Wednesday 6/18-07 and it was shipped that day, 3 day air. I will receive the kit on Monday, and it WILL be shipped on Monday
Tracy, you have no concerns at this juncture.

Hi Luca.

As soon as I get your formal order as we discussed via e-mail, then your kit will be ordered also, and I do not expect any delays for shipping, also as we communicated.
I guess we at ZOOMS, as an authorized MA dealer, have a little more pull than Heliproz?

Regards.......Jerry @ ZOOMS

Jerry,

I am very exciting to hear you confirm in this forum that you are going to have Stratus kit next this week.

Thanks Jerry

Tracy....thanks for your call this morning, greatly appreciate it.

Everyone should start believing in ZOOMS HELI. I have no problems with MA (except thos minor unforeseen circumstances that everyone experiences), but I have never had to wait more than 1 week to receive a kit from them. Same holds true with ALIGN, whereas I get one day service from them. THUNDER TIGER.....one day service. SYNERGY ....some inventory problems!!

It doesn't have anything to do with Zoom's, it's the fact that MA doesn't have any canopies for the Stratus, Tempest, or Spectra, and doesn't ahve any real ETA on them. When I ordered my Spectra from them last Monday, they had plenty of helis, but the only canopies they had were ones that had minor cracking in them, and unless you called and specifically requested that they send you a cracked canopy, no one was getting a kit, doesn't matter if it's Zooms, Heliproz, or my LHS. Because I asked them to send a cracked one, I had my Spectra in 4 days. I'd still be waiting if I hadn't.

The cracked canopies are great, mine had 2 tiny cracks in the gelcoat that I probably wouldn't have noticed if they weren't circled with a sharpie. After paint, they don't show up at all.

I didnt think MA had Stratus canopies. Last I heard they were shipping them naked.

Congrats Tracy Tran on your new arrival. You'll have fun.
