Does anyone have one of these as I have one on order and was wanting to know if anybody had any useful tips for the build .Am going to paint it up in Australian Army cam as close to real thing as I can get.Using a OS 91 rear exhaust with hirobo muffler
Any help would be much appreciated

HI Chris
Is this your first scale or is it more general information on the hirobo?

I assume you already fly Helicopters. If you read Peter Wales book in the Content section you will learn a lot of scale tips and tricks. Once you read it then please come back and ask more questions. You are more than welcome to do a build log on line here if you like.
Are you going to use the electric start option ?

Hi Alex
No I'm not using the electric start but am putting a OS91 engine in it. Peter Wales book was very helpful and yes I have been flying for about 10 months now and have 2 Evo 50's
Will keep you posted on the build

I think you will need to register to view the forum sorry i have told them its silly .
get yourself some 2.6mm captive nuts and some carbon sheet only about 25 x 50mm when it comes to fitting the tail gearbox you will understand. Gary |

OS-91 rear exhaust with the exhaust hirobo say don't use
the one indicated on the instructions is 15 mm deeper than the fuselage bottom. |
