        Nice.
        I can see why theres some buzz about this heli now I see it without its coat on. Some very nice design going on there. Love the swash and the Rush style head links although when the Rush comes out I guess we will call it G4 style headlinks. Not sure why new designs are still coming out with 4 balls on the inner ring though? Love the way the fan shroud becomes part of the frame rather than just fits in the frame. Looks quite light, any idea what the RTF weight is?

                  Very nice looking canopy, amazing what a difference it makes in appearance!

                        I saw this flying yesterday and I must say I think the G4 is the best looking model heli I have ever seen in the air with a nice canopy like this, they fly very well too.....

                              FYI in case someone orders one,

                              I got this canopy from Fusuno, but it didn't fit so I had to drill the frames with mounting holes about 13mm further forward. Also got higher mounts to ensure it was clear from the maingear.

                              I also ordered a "G4 fin", first one was a strange looking thing, I asked them for a "G4 fin - same shape and same size", they said if you want a G4 fin it will cost $5 more, I paid it.

                              I get it and its an inch longer and different shape (and flaps like..... something that flaps a lot). I went back and they said "the Fin is Ok please use it".

                              Cheeky little ****ers!

                              I am currently having words, will post the outcome.
