For now, yes, I don't know of any other options available, plus I want to see just how capable a stock setup is before I start tweaking things.

Send the stock motor to Hanson so he can balance it for you. He's right there in your backyard. And Cody is right about the V-bar.

Just hit a show stopper in the build, missing parts! Got the head assembled and was about to start on the frame only to find that I got two bags of the same set of parts and none of another.

In 15 minutes I'll be able to call Century in Cal and see what it's going to take to get the right parts to the east coast

I've toyed with the idea of driving over here and letting these guys do the balancing on the Spectra G engine...http://www.lindskog.com/ , if it spins, they can balance it. I've had small block Chevys and motorcycle engines done by them in the past, no one better at balancing reciprocating assemblies IMO!

As for the Vbar, as much as I'd like to try it out, one of the goals of this project is to use what I have sitting around and not spend any more than I already have to buy the kit, engine, pipe, and GV-1. I've got a lot of expensive equipment that isn't being used and I know that I wouldn't get crap for it if I tried to sell it right now, so I might as well use it in a heli I'll enjoy flying. Expending funds for engine work, Vbar, wide chord blades, and an host of other things I can think of, not going to happen, the toy fund is dry and not likely to be replenished anytime soon after I what I just laid out for the Radikal

Looks like they accidentally sent you a GV1 governor. Hopefully they will replace that for you at the same time they send your replacement parts.

Isn't neglecting the V-bar kind of like buying a new Porsche and then putting plastic hub caps on it?

No, I'd say it's more like putting bias ply tires on it, still works, just not quite as sharp in the handling department

After a number of phones calls back and forth, I finally got someone on the line at Centruy that could understand the problem with the missing parts, should be delivered here on Monday. Unfortunately I won't be here, yet another out of state business trip Monday and Tuesday, my hopes of a maiden flight next weekend are just about gone, too much to do and not enough time to get it all done.

Guess I'll just have to go fly the Spectra G instead

Very true, but it goes back to the funds...
