Yes, it is still on as far as I know and heard.
General flying will be going on all afternoon, the food will be ready I think by late afternoon just before dark and the actual night flying will be just after dark of course.
So come as early before dark as you would like and stay till it is over. yes.gif

Not sure if they do or not. I'm sure they can order it if it's not in stock. They are very good about special orders.

They carry a lot of parts for E-flight and other brands of small electrics, you might be able to use a flybar from another helo.

Don't get discouraged, the FP helicopters are a bear to fly, much harder than those equiped with collective pitch heads. If you can up-grade to a collective head, that would be the first mod I'd make. twocents.gif

well struck out at the LHS today, the closest they had would of been a really tight fit, 2mm is what .078, all they had was .080 and .070

come to think about it they hardly ever have what Im lookin for, always have to order stuff, dry.gif
