Here`s some photos of my neary completed winter project
Robbe Nova Cuatro gasser
Zenoah engine
Robbe Hughes 300C Fuse
Futaba radio inc , GV-1 with stator gator ,9202 servos
It flys very well and is ultra stable in the hover due to the extended rotorshaft my next move is to fit a 3 blade head. If anybody out there has flown one of these with this type of head could they let me know how they got on and if it needs a stabiliser system to control the head

I know and have met Peter, its his book I have published in the content section on building scale helicopters. He is highly thought of in the global heli scale world. If he thinks OF are the best then he has tested a number of other solutions and can give you an unbiased answer. _________________ Alex |
