Scale Heli

OK, Got my HeliArtist MD500E Fuse and my EXI450 installed today done a test Hover and all went well. The thing I found was the ESC and Batt got pretty warm in just 3 to 4 min hover. I think the trouble is the G90 servos that Iam using I pretty sure these things pull way to much voltage.
So I think I will be changing them so I well gets some vid of the Heli in a hover soon and post it here
for you guys to see. Any input on the Tower Pro G90 servos would great ya know if anyone
thinks there is a problem with them. The hover is stable as can be, I was amazed at the diff.

Here are some pics

hey is tht a coptor x on the side ? if so so how u like it i just ordered the alum frame version

burton8012, Man the CopterX is the most stable 450 size Heli i have ever had the thing is sweeeet.

sdjb

nice!

hmmm Didnt think to install a Processor fan?.

A guy from Colombia installed one over his ESC, cuz he is using a scale heli of a Bell 206, and it keeps the esc and the frame components more cooled.

Beautiful helicopter. Can't wan't wait to see your video. I use sg 90 servos on my Belt CP and have been really happy with them. I plan to eventually install a scale fuse on my Belt CP, so good to know we have someone with some experience.

Donnie D, Thanks man, yea I will get it figured out. Iam thinkin that I need to get a motor with a
higher wattage rating cause the alpha 400 is under powered with the extra load of the fuse.
or the one I have in it now may have a problem. Thats why I have not installed the windows yet
going to do the lighting system also just what to get all my ducks in a row frist. The CopterX in the pics is going to get a scale make over as well I think the AS350 is the one Iam going to get for it.
Like i said before the CopterX is just great it blew me away on the maiden flight just amazing as to
how stable they are. everyone should get one of them they are worth every penny and then some.

Going try and get some video by the weekend I hope, the wind is up here right now and they say
15 to 25 MPH winds for tomorrow. So as soon as the winds let down I will get some video up.

Does anyone have one of the Black Angels?? They look pretty sweet!!

DonnieD, I like your Bell 47 a lot. I was going to one them a few yaers back but things didnt work out. I have my Hirobo 50 size nitro that Iam going to either do a Huey or a Little Bird out off. We
will see. Iam also into EDF's got the RCLander F9F Panther Iam slowly getting together waiting on the
fans to come back in stock. Got the GWS ME262 GWS 15 that Iam working on as well all that takes money and you know how that is. I been flyin my UltraFly P-40 alot that thing is nice flys real well Iam about to finish up my UltraFly P-51 its full house retracts, flaps good lookin warbird I'll try to put
some pics up of my warbird today.

Hey thanks again for the PM Fat it is hard to deal with. The Black Angel? that is kind of the same as the CopterX right?

sdjb

Yea the Black Angel is a Copter X heli.. Its new and I've seen it reviewed in RCHeli Mag. and its at HobbyDaddy.com..Its their top line ship I believe..

Okay I know this is a Heli thread I ask Nuttz if he could setup a areas for scale helis and scales planes as we all know the man is real busy. But here are some pics of my warbirds







Oh man Photobucket YIKES

Hey Fat, Just went to take a look at the Black Angel SWEEEEET. The only thing I saw was the return
pully on the tail had the same kind on my MX400 and the frist troubles I had with it was that same
return pulley it cut the drive belt in two. from that time on I always remove the return pulley ya
dont need it away, The new Algin helis dont use them any more. And I have found that it can and will mess with your gyro.

sdjb

Do you know how much the 500 fuse weighs?

Donnie D

By the way, nice looking birds.

Yea I think that Black Angel looks pretty impressive for Copter X being a new co.as such!!
I will be using the head and tail rotor assembelys for a build I'm going to start this week, Its for a trade I've agreeded to for a truck!!! I'm impressed by what I can see so far and for 69 for the pair including shafts I'm thinkin it is a good deal.....

DonnieD No I sure dont. I can check around to see if I can find out, Got me wondering now.

sdjb

Yea Fatdaddy they do like nice and if anything like the parts that came on my CopterX they will
make any biuld come like a fine clock. Swap for a truck ? Rc or real?

sdjb

ok, made you guys a new "Scale" Thread

Its an RC truck!!! REVO 3.3 I wanted something my 14 yr. old daughter could run.. Don't think she will ever fly

Fat the revo is bad A*& fast tons of fun.

sdjb

Thanks Marc U BE THE MAN.

sdjb

i think i just fell in love with scale heli's

Sounds great!! The more members that get interested in scale helicopters and airplanes, the more folks I get to talk to about them and share info and ideas with. Giddyupp!!!

Donnie D

Hey sdjb, how about some more pics of your 500.

Donnie D Here ya go Bro




Ya can see in this pic where ya have to make stand offs for the tail section. Made them out of some
brass tubing need to add one.





I will get some video soon. Had to take my HandyCam back to the shop for repair AGAIN I think Iam goin to be shopping for
a new Video cam soon.

nice!!!

I love that color scheme on that 500 fuselage. After I get my Bell 47 done, I want to scale out my Belt CP, probably with a Hughes 500 fuse. Hope you can help me with that. Then I want to do my E-Smart probably with a Huey fuse. Eventually maybe I will do a 500 size hely as an Apache or Cobra. I love scale stuff.

Donnie D

Yeap me too, Scale is cool. The EXI450 flys so much more stable with the fuse, real nice My EXI500 will be here tuesday and
if I can talk Mama into letting me send some more money Iam going to get the 500 size AS350 fuse for it. going to put lights
spot on it dress it up nice.

sdjb

I'm in!!!! I've been thinkin also....DD it is your fault!!!!!! Last night I went in my back issues of RCHeli and found a article on a twin rotor 450 scale
Called "Twinn Rexx" It is very cool but looks very complacated!!!! So its for me!!!! I'm lookin into it now!!!

lol every one slowly starting to get addicted to scale


(sdjb) you should tint out those windows on the scale body u got look so much cooler
