Build Story
Hirobo Dauphine 60 Electric Conversion
Chapter 5 of 7
Mechanics installed
Feb 1, 2026
The mechanics fit nicely and the electronics are in one place. I can completely remove the mechanics and test everything including the tail rotor servo (with an extension cable) except the landing gear. Once installed, I set up the head pitch and Axon parameters.

One of my first scale “loves!”
Ha! Funny, had to get some final testing done. Even while I saw everyone having fun at the field” Makes me wonder about myself at times.
Thomas,
Looks great. Nice and smooth with a solid head speed. Video frame rate is a good tool.

Thank you Butch.
Your build has motivated me to convert my Dauphin from nitro to electric. That custom motor mount is worth its weight in gold.
It flies better than my nitro engine did. It was always fussy, now a joy to fly. I would be happy to share any CAD files.
