How frustrating is it to need a part only to be told you have to wait weeks or months to get it? Like you, I hate that, which is why Heliworkshop stocks THOUSANDS of parts so you don’t have to wait at a critical point in your build or repair.

At Heliworkshop, we are the only “stocking” Vario dealer in the USA with a strong emphasis on getting the parts or kits you need as soon as possible. Vario has a 5000+ parts inventory. Although it is impossible to maintain all 5000+ parts in our stock, we do our best to fill orders and ship in stock parts within 24 hours. If we don’t have the parts you need in stock, we simply add them to our weekly orders that ship from the German warehouse. Either way, we are always working to make sure you get what you need quickly.

Next time you think about kits, parts, service or just critical help with your Vario model, remember that we are builders with more than 30 years of experience building and flying Vario and other brands of model helicopters. We know what you need because we’ve been there!

I’ve used a few different flybarless systems over the years and some have been better than others. What I have discovered is that a pilot is looking for a “feel” and “connection “ to the helicopter. Each manufacturer has their unique methods to achieve this “connection “ and some are better than others. My choice is The Bavarian Demon which was developed for both 3D and scale applications. My point: when you find the FBL system that works for you, stick with it because it’s the best FBL system that works for YOU. Here’s an older video with with a test flight after setting up the Demon 3SX. Helicopter is 8ft long 1100mm metal blades and 46lbs. It was upgraded to the Demon Axon for the Jeti telemetry features prior to sale.

Military nomenclature stencils..

I had been searching for a company that could produce custom stencils in a very small scale that would work on models from 1/7 - 1/4 I finally found a company that was able to produce them. These are made from Mylar and are reusable. The price was quoted based on the quantity and I got 14 different ones which was about 110.00$ including shipping. These will work great on some military models we’re working on.
