MI-24

It’s that time again! Lube and Loctite to keep the torque monster at bay!

Thanks to all the guys who gave me clips!

FINALLY got good weather and a chance to fly the HeliClassics Mi-24 Hind after (a) installing a new fuel pump and (b) fixing the broken right main (which broke after a flameout from the bad pump). I love the way this model flies. The video is my second flight on this model since acquiring it almost a year ago!

My first flight on this HeliClassics Mi-24. I think the head gyro needs to be dialed down a bit and the right main axle needs a tweak. I bought this bird from John Christensen and Matthias from HeliClassics helped me (did all the work) convert it from Futaba to Jeti. We got lucky with a 55-degree day here in Colorado so I had to give it a whirl.

Thanks to Patrick Vestal for filming!

HeliClassics' own Matthias Strupf visited the ScaleHeliPilot shop in Colorado to convert this Mi-24 radio system from Futaba to Jeti! This is a video of the test flight.

My first flight with the Mi-24 Hind from HeliClassics. My knees were quaking! Ultimately a wonderful helicopter to fly.
