Hey everyone, hope all is good…
I’m working on VARIO CH-53. I’m stumped on where to put electronics ( ECU, batteries etc. there is only the cargo door, no other door access. I could use some ideas. Or pics of your setup?
Thanks for any help!

Looking for a scale Huey rotorhead 600 roban 10 mm shaft
Hi all, I'm looking for a scale Huey UH-1N rotorhead, 600 roban 10 mm shaft. I do have a dummy stabilization bar I can use on a 2 bladed system just looking for something more scale than the Align I have for the Roban conversion.
Thanks in advance for your help
hello folks!!
anyone here very familiar with Benzene Trainer helicopter. need a help with a special something.
please see photo attached. part # 830/64. also known as clutch bell assembly. I would like to know the following -
1) how can I take this part, apart?
2) also, how can I take the 2 bearings out, which are inside this clutch bell assembly.
many thanks in advance!!
Starting my first scale Heli.
Finishing up an Align 550X super combo kit.
Have a Funkey Bell222 (not Airwolf scheme).
50/600 size. Most things are straight forward except how ill mount the battery. If stock mount, I’ll have to get access from front or improvise a mount.
Next foreseen problem is mechanical retracts that came with kit. Servo sync etc. I’ll be using either a DX7 G2 or JR XG8...

Question is are they worth messing with or suggest electric or air that will fit well. Could someone recommend a set of servos for the supplied retracts. Better yet, a reasonably priced set of electric or air retracts
I guess the first question should be is the 550X a good setup for the Funkey 222.
Any comments and help is appreciated..

My first build, setting the mechanics in the fuselage and I need to extend the main rotor and I need some advice on the linkage. It will need to be lengthened as well. What is the best practice? Thank you
Building bell 206 using the align 800 mechanics setting the mechanics on the wood frame, the tail rotor is about 1/2 - 5/8 " to high. My first thought is to drop the rear cross member 1/2 - 5/8 " to get the tail boom on center with the opening for the tail boom drive shaft to exit the fuselage. Thoughts from anyone who might have experienced this.

So I was able to get a Roban 500 size MD500 from MotionRC. I have a TREX 500 for mechanics in it and was able to get a couple flights on it before our field closed for the winter.
If I was to replace the head with a 5 blade head, do I stay with the same blade length or go smaller to keep the load on the esc and motor manageable? For all practice purpose, it is an older TREX, pretty much stock...
