Heli's are here!
Here's the first of these I've built

Flying today (windy as buggery!), just trimming hops & Gyro adjustments....
It lives!
Heli is rock solid in the hover, I had no chance to test it out for circuits, fast forward flight or 3d aero's today as it was blowing 25 knots!......Not the best conditions for test flying!
Set up is:
3s 2200mah lipo
4 x HXT900 servos (0.09 sec 60 degree sweep @ 6 volts)
40 Amp Brushless speed controller
3800 Kv brushless outrunner
GA410 Pro heading lock Gyro
2.4 Ghz 8 channel computer radio
Optional parts fitted (I fly 3D):
Alloy head (with stiffer head dampers)
Alloy main blade grips
Alloy swash plate
325mm Carbon main blades
Alloy tail gearbox
Alloy tail blade grips
61mm tail blades
There are three more being built as I type, 1 modified and 2 stock out of the box......
Not much else to do when your stuck at home with a virus!
