Today the first delivery goes to Helix Hobbies. We are just closing the kits

Diabolo--

I'm going to limit myself to just one for now

Waiting waiting, i like the additional bracing they did on the diabolo and fat tail boom!

Today the first delivery goes to Helix Hobbies. We are just closing the kits

We are expecting more each week to fill the orders.

Thanks!!

Hey

My kit ahold be at my house any day now

They are almost here

I received a call they started shipping from Helix Hobbies to their owners on Wednesday

Got mine.

Ok here we are. Love the Pre done canopy, the tail is only about 10mm longer than tdr not sure how u will fit 750mm blades???

Lots more frame bolts than tdr, but its got lots of bracing so its very stiff.

One way bearing is double stacked so no issues there.

Got the electronics waiting and poster of arnie to keep me going!

I think tommorow my radix blades will be here.

Canopy and boom is chunkier good for visibility
Belt tensioner is sweet as
Note to others make sure boom clamp half moons in tail case lock down straight
I checked main gear and 2nd stage gear is thicker than tdr

NICE Micheal!!

Here is some more pics, i also got the head on last night, the main shaft and head block was really tight and a PIA to get lined up with hole.

Today i hope to do tail gribs assembly.

Then all that is left is the electronics/setup SWEET!

I am using Savox servos (12KG), BLS251, jive 120HV V9, 4535LE with 18T, vbar pro 5.2 with ar7000, radix V2 710MM and 110MM.

what do you think about the cardboard in the tail boom? I did not put any in, Gerd said its best to so it does not hit in 3D, i do not have suitable carboard and the belt is kevlar inside anyway.
