  • Jr schweizer 300

    Hi,

    I'm just about to commence this build with 60 Venture mechanics.

    Any suggestions as to what size blades would work well?

    Thanks

      I've used 690's on my 700 before and thought they may have been too large.

      No worries though, will give them a go!!

                    just a quick tip for your build thread..... above your first post is a grey bar with a "thread tools" box. close the thread each time you post(obviously using it to open it as well) and it stops people commenting and adding non relevant posts and makes your thread look much tidier. once done leave it open. edit your first post with a link to here for people with questions.

                      You've done this before haven't you????

                      Thanks for the tip. Have followed your advise as it makes perfect sense.

                          It all looks very nice indeed and should be a very impressive machine.

                          I have an OS70 in a Robbe Futura and it's a great engine, It is super smooth in the transition from low to mid and mid to high revs and lots of torque, so unless that heli ends up being very heavy the OS70 should power it very well.

                              Cheers Gents,

                              She's an absolute treat to put together.
