The East Coast shop don't sell helis. Can try daddyhobby.com to look for 2nd hand ones or ACE Hobby

as this forum more for hardware, not many people uses it for R/C. For more R/C info, check out: www.rctech.net and scroll all the way to almost bottom of the page.

i just got another 2nd hand TA05R. Currently converting my TA05IFS back to TA05. Dun really like the IFS set up. seems like IFS is more suited for Touring then drifting...

Got my 3Racing TA05 carbon fiber chassis. Will be rebuilding my TA05R with this chassis.

i'm running front 1 way, center 1 way and ball diff rear on my 05R and solid front, stock center and ball diff rear on my 05. Used to be running solid both front and rear.

i always over steer with my IFS. and i also very littlr "droop" in the front as compared to the rear. i added almost spacers to half the length of the dampers already and it only brought the ride height higher by just alittle. and with the added spacers, the dampers is not really doing its job. so i changed to TRF415 short springs(Red). Slightly better. Friend advise to switch to TA05 setup and try...

so i'm trying now...
