Micro, FP i coaxial / solo pro v2
Ive tried the Xtreme flybar and didnt like it. Yes, it reduced flybar strikes but it also caused my Solo Pro to death spiral, even under mild stick movements. The fit and finish was very poor. The ball links were too large so I had to sand them down and the weights were threaded very poorly. To make matters worse, the grub screws used to hold the weight in place are soft as butter.

Xtreme have a whole range of upgrade parts for the Solo Pro but honestly I think they are a waste of money. The swashplate is an exception but it is terribly overpriced.

Ive found that the stock Solo Pro performs well and it is near indestructible. The Xtreme upgrades cost too much, add too much weight and are poorly manufactured in my opinion.

The only OEM item I use are the HobbyKing 120mAh replacement batteries. These rock. You can get 5 for under 10 delivered and they perform much better than the stock Nine Eagles batteries.
