    Default Heli Building Service Name?

    Hi there folks first of all I'd just like to say if this is out of rules then please just delete it but I'm struggling.

    I am going to setup a small evening business of building,setting up servicing Heli's and engines I may even build cars and buggy's for folk.

    Anyway before I can move on I need a name for the business so I can start building a website and making banners etc.

    So could you please fire up some catchy names relating to heli's and building them. (heli-tech was one I thought of but it's been used already :-/

    Thanks

    Nice Idea Lewis, but imo fixing your mate's heli's in your own club, one thing, for others with cash involved. could well be like opening a can of worms imho.

    I am far from the first person to want to do this infact in my search for more info I found someone on here that did it a few years ago quite successfully too by the looks of it.

    The thing being with me is I have confidence in doing stuff like this infact not all of the time but a lot of the time I'm find it quite easy and really enjoy doing it even the more challenging parts. I've never been stuck while building or repairing heli's well not yet anyway. So I don't really see the problem I know there will be some that won't be happy but there always is and this will have to be dealt with in a professional manner.

    If I had time I'd offer service building planes as well but I just don't have the time or space for that.

    Anyway thanks for your input but I hope I can prove you wrong. :-D

    Any more name suggestions?

    quite agree, i say go for it, i build and repair models for people in my own spare time, so much so that i usually have a 1 month waiting list with 2-3 models being built at the same time
    i do build all sorts from foamy trainers upto £6K jets and all sorts of helis
    i now do all my work through the Paul Heckles school so that way the customer can see the fnished model be test flown, but i cant see why if you are confident with your skills and happy with your work that you cant make it work
    if you want some more advice then feel free to contact me by PM

    Buy a lot of tools, and I mean a lot, almost every different heli seemed to need a new tool I found!

    I already have quite a lot of tools but I'll be buying more as I need them.

    I still can't work out why imperial isn't just imperial and why metric isn't just metric though. You would think all metric cap heads are the same but they are not. Engineers can be so stupid at times. lol
