Here are the latest pics of the 500E. I'm going to Need help with the colors to break up all the yellow, it sure is bright and will be easy to see in the air....

Yes I flipped the tail over to the left side like the real thing... It handles different on liftoff and when you spool down and takes a little getting used to but I have been flying the crap out of these mechanics so I think I have all of thebugs worked out..

Did you notice the 600E on the bench to the right??

I also found some tail rotor blades that have square ends so they will look more scale when I paint them red and white.....

Id rather have purple but that would ruin the scale look.
would imagine 2 paints would cause weight and imbalance.
I gave you an Idea to break up that color

Your not doing 2 paints if you have black blades you only need to paint the white on them.....

Sorry Slider let me straighten you out a bit.

Kings dont have black blades or paddles they come in yellow or white I have yellow. I was hoping someone had white I could just paint the black.

I have a pair I could part with. Not broken, but they are a bit scuffed.

The more they overthink the plumbing, the easier it is to stop up the drain.

Slider, how much difference did K&B tail blades make? I was thinking about trying out a set. Just wondering if its worth it. As I recall the blades are a little fatter at the root, so they need to be trimmed down, or the grips need to widened. Correct?

Just a lite sanding with a block sander will fix the rooton the blades. I haven't flown them enough to tell if they are better or not but I like the square end for the scale look...

After fooling around in photoshop for 3 nites I have my paint scheme underway tonite.. It's going to take a while to tape off but it's going to be well worth the effort I think.... More pic's to come...
