Also, I want to go a step further back and make it back into the Fury Extreme it was when it was born. With the YS 80 I had in it. Man I miss flying.

Wow, the ground was closer than I thought.

Why not buy 2nd hand. They nearly giving them away. I'm loving buying cheap MA kits and parts 'cos they not the latest and greatest'

They still damage the sky badly and cheaper to repair and maintain.

!boo!

True, and parts are still out there.

Wow, the ground was closer than I thought.

If i need something i didnt get in a 'parts lot' sale, or a specialized item, then Ronlunds is first on my list, then heliproz.

i just wish the prices were in line with the whippy's, man thats an affordable heli, parts-wise.

!boo!

They pop up here and there! eBay has a few. I've had good luck with my electric conversions of the stratus and my old expert! Good machines!!!

Just curious, but why do you prefer that model to the newer models?

Older Ma heli's

Justin the reason people buy older MA, is because as someone already posted, you get the best for less. Of Course the newest and greatest are awesome, but the others are like I said Cheaper used.

You guys are keeping it real!

Old School is still cool!

I love my Stratus! I started to sale it for a " latest/greatest" and i am so glad it did not sale!

Full carbon Fury Extreme here...

With a YS 91 sr, my fist 90 class and loving it. Won't ever sell her.

The price of freedom will always be paid in blood, just ask Christ

Those machines where all top dog in the day. Just like a 10 yr old Ferrari they are still damn good machines. I have 2 Stratus and a Fury in the workshop that get some air time from time to time also. They always make me smile flying them.

I feel more comfortable with my older MA Stuff, maybe not worried about a crash like I am with my newer stuff.

How about an XLPro 2K:

Oh btw, I guess you cannot quess who use to own this one?

It's been around in a few contest.

I love all the old birds.

I wish they would release a "Retro" kit of some of the popular models. I know it would never happen and wouldn't be cost effective for them, but I can dream....

It is a shame that most heli designers just go with eccpm and mccpm is almost completely gone and some new people to the hobby have never seen an mccpm helicopter.

I have a Fury I put in and didn't have much damage and I bought a Status conversion kit for it. Now I have the incentive to start the rebuild

I still fly my Extreme.

But I've got my eye on a gasser Whip.

I haven't flown mine in a year or two but it is the smoothest flying heli I have owned. It is still sitting on my shelf ready to go and I am sure it is still one of the best.
