Logo 600 conversion progress!

[LaurenceGough]

Well, just finished my orders up...

Logo 500 to 600.

3300mAh 6S Hyperion VX x4

Lipos, motor and rest of bits on the way! (600 head, rest of tail, motor, tail blades etc)

Set-up will be: Mikado Logo 600 V-Bar - Mikado V-Bar, Kontronik Jive 80+ HV, NHP Razor Pro 603mm, Edge 95mm, 12S 3300mAh Hyperion VX, Scorpion 4035-500 @ 11T, JR DS 8900G, Futaba BLS 451's.

I just can't wait, I really can't! Itching to fly this beast. The canopy is just jaw dropping, well worth the extra "treat" to myself.

Soon to be lots of Logo 500 bits up for sale!

Will be keeping this thread up to date.

Cheers guys,

Laurence

Oh I know, I flew my mates Logo 600 10S (Hyperion VX) which I set-up and flew, it was the most amazing thing I've even seen/flown, and for about 7 minutes or so of 3D.

Mate.. PLEASE!!! NO MORE PICS!! My 500 is getting an inferiority complex


Am i correct in thinking thats the £80 canopy :EEK:

Dam your logo is "da bomb"...am i coming across as a tad envious

Is it ready yet then Laurence...?

Im getting my 600 well "dailed in" now.......ive found with the 12s power setup its got so much torque it can pull silly amounts of pitch and doesnt need big headspeed to get massive performance.....! Youll love it......!

90 quid canopy, and well happy with it, looks amazing! Really glad I paid the extra compared to the boring stock ones. (sorry Dan )

Fingers crossed it'll be flying this weekend (waiting on packs)!!!

Thx guys!

[LaurenceGough]

Well she is complete, had my first two test flights today... Let me just tell you words can't describe how she flys but I can try... Amazing, perfect, torquey, light, precise etc etc...

12S ROCKS, so glad I went with it (what I really wanted to go with all along ), packs were stone cold, ESC just warm, motor was pretty hot but that's normal for the Scorpions anyway. Might get a Pyro in the future!

The power is INSANE, out of this world, unboggable even on first lipo cycle, for 6 mins. I think 10T would have been better but I would probably have outgrown it fast anyway...

This heli is amazing it really is, everything went smoothly no probs looks superb but flys even better.

Worth all the wonga to convert it to a 600 for sure. After all it's the heli I've always wanted anyway.

[LaurenceGough]

More pics! Might help someone out.

Remember guys, function over form . (other than outside the canopy looks ).

Are you going to add a plate to the top of the lipo under the main shaft?

Yep, going to add some carbon plate onto the lipos, just a square where the pinion is. Thanks for the reminder.




I need to get some decent pics without flash...

[ddracer]

Might be better to use GRP as carbon is conductive.

[LaurenceGough]

True I guess, but as long as it stops the pinion it should be good.

Got a crappy vid a few days ago:
