My Posts This: Topic  Forum		nice Stet, very nice
what paint scheme will you be using?
edit: sorry I didn't read so well... it sure is going to be nice with that sweet mechanic

...it's even a 355 you're painting
edit: yes, the AS355 is the twin engine version of the AS350

ps: was that first picture a commuting helicopter from Moulineau'x (Paris helipad) to le Bourget meeting?

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		I don't know what heli is in the pic, I grabbed it off helispot.com where you can see many full scale paint jobs. That is the paint job I am going to do, good visibility and I like the silver making a metal heli look like it is made of metal.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Done. Working with painters is always a challenge. This guy got it close enough to what I asked for.

Test flew it and it is really nice. Carries a 3S3P 6000 pack so 10 minutes with the hacker 8L.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Looks great Stet! I was wondering not too long ago if you ever finished this project. Glad to see you have.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		It flies nice and predictable. Heavy with the 3S3P battery, will be shopping for a smaller 3S pack.

Pretty much an ornament which can be flown once in a while. It fills my need for scale.

My Spirit Pro has been serving the same function this year. I bought an MSH Protos this spring to take care of my day to day flying.

Might be time for me to find a scale fuse for mine, seems the perfect use for a part time shelf queen

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Wow, it looks good Stet. Three years seems to be the going rate for this model. I bought a fuselage kit about 18 months ago after reading your initial posting and it's still in primer awaiting a colour scheme I am inspired to now finish it Interesting landing gear, is it function over form, or is the kit/scale version rubbish ? The tail rotor seems to be on the wrong side, is it a shaft drive ?

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		It's the shaft drive. I modified Alex's carbon landing gear so that it would be more robust in hard landings.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Hi Stet

A couple of questions, where can I get "Alex's carbon landing gear" from ? I notice in the photos that you are running ball links on the servo arms, something which I've pondered over for a while (I've never been happy with the stock aircraft type links) Since the links nolonger drop veritically down from the swash plate to the servo arm is handling changed by a noticeable amount ?
