I'll keep updating the pics. We got our son an iPad which is my 1st experience of an I anything and it is the simplest thing in the world to take and upload pics! What do you think chucky? It's nothing like the 6hv. It's a real chunky monkey.

It is a very powerful machine. I checked my vbar log and it did not even register any extreme or any bad vibration. I think my issue is with my mechanical setup. I will double check again today and will test it. Savour the build because it will not take long. It is my first 90 size heli so Im quite new to this but my impression on the bird is quite higher compared to my Align models.

Some more build pics! Set up next?

Just noticed the quality of the iPads camera is really quite rubbish! I'll get the 5d mk2 out when it's finished and try to make it look pretty! Ps can I get away with strapping the tm1000's antenna to the boom. The installation manual recommends you keep it away from metal or carbon fibre which is a bit difficult on a heli!

I doubt if it will be a problem. I've had mine right next to the carbon frames on a TRex 700N and I haven't had any issues with the telemetry signal. In the end, I used some plastic antenna tube to give a neater solution, which also gets it away from the carbon frame:
