One last set of pictures,,,,I was just so proud of the final results. Everything on the heli is perfect and the wiring is as clean as I've seen anywhere!     The only thing left is setting my pitch curves,,,,I got screwed again by an on-line RC shop, I ordered a BIG pitch guage 10 days ago and just yesterday they finally admitted that it was back ordered for over a week,,,,but it is on the way to me now. I told them where to hang that pitch guage and I ordered from elsewhere,,,when the first one comes in I'll refuse shipment,,,the second one was $7 cheaper anyway! As soon as I get the pitch guage I'll have 'Moat-Gator' ready to fly. I'll video the first spool-up but I won't try to fly it until I get the Helicommand installed and programmed. I WANNA BUILD ANOTHER ONE! ;D This was sooo much fun,,,,if anyone wants to buy the kit and electronics,,,I'll build it for them. I'm expensive but I can be had!! ;D |

 Got the tail all set up. Servo centered, trims and sub-trims 0, arm 90 degrees and tail slider perfectly centered!   I'm using a braided sleeve wrap on all my wiring,,,,it's a pain in the butt, but it will look a lot cleaner and pretect the wire harnesses. Should look great! ;D Where'd you get the braided wire wrap? |

I used 1/8" on the single servo wires,,,,,,and the 1/4" when I ran two(both forward cyclic) harnesses thru the same one! Get a couple of each,,,they come in 2.5 feet,,,,sounds like a lot,,but it goes quick! I pulled the pins out of the servo connectors to run them thru. Look at this too,,,I like it!! www.readyheli.com/RC_Booya_Trex_600_Electric_Canopy_Mount_V2_p/ecm.htmAnd I found these; www.helidirect.com/finishing-metal-washer-for-3mm-screws-10pcs-blue-trex-p-3244.hdxAlong with the SS screw kit,,,it looks great!! AND; www.helidirect.com/align-torque-tube-front-drive-gear-set-h6014701-p-9266.hdxYou will need these handy,,,,,this is the 'weakest-link' on this heli,,,,touch the tail blades on landing(even grass) and this is the first thing to go! I have to change mine again,,,second one,,,,I have ONE tooth missing and I can't see how it happened,,,I haven't touched the tail,,,,but must have,,,,a big bug maybe? ;D oops,,,,they are in stock here; www.readyheli.com/SearchResults.asp?Search=H60147-01 |
