I flew mine today at DMHC and was stunned by it,,loads of pitch and cyclic range so i dialled it down a bit as it easily overpitched unless careful..

The whole build is pretty easygoing but the governor sensor mouning is a pain,,i suggest you drill the hole on the fan right thru,sand the plastic around it and make sure the magnet is as flush as possible inside the hole and epoxy over both sides

This is assuming you are fitting a governor,,if not just ignore all the above


I find fitting and removing the engine and fan shroud a right pain with the landing gear attatched so i remove landing gear for engine removal so i suggest you fit the engine before fitting the gear


If you are fitting a governor then get the sensor mount installed before fitting the engine or servos

I have found the tail to be as everyone said the plastic tail quality isnt amazing. As a lot of people did point out.

Metal parts and frames stunning though.

Why is it T.T plastic seems better?

I'd like to know is there a metal tail upgrade and metal tail blade grips out there?? I recon its the two things I'd change.

Tail Blades though are better than some models out there.

going to go BBT Manics all around it though main and tail. might test fly it Monday...

I am finding the tail pretty good,i will try carbon tailblades as i did make it blow out sometimes in fast backward loops but it was quite windy yesterday..

I have never liked metal bladegrips and i find the plastic ones perfect,,i am liking this model more then my Pro now which didnt even come out of the car yesterday,,,
