Scale Model RC Helicopters > Align A-109 450se project progress shots...

Hey Guys,

Here's some shots of my current scale A-109 project. She's a 450se stuck inside the Align fuse. I'm running a 450 Diablo head with a AON 3500 for power on a 3S setup. I have also installed a scale nav lighting kit from Lazertoyz. She's running HS-65's on the swash, and a HS-81 on the tail controlled through a GY-401. I'm using a Futaba FAAST tx and rec(6EX)for the radio gear. I got inspired with other's scale efforts here, and decided that I give it a go. This is my first scale attempt...

I've been working on her(and still have some more to do until "first hover")for a while now; about a month or so. From the pics you can see what she looks like, I'm still working on mounting the frame (she's just friction mounted now). The rotating beacons (on the top and bottom of the fuse) kept blinking in sync with the shutter, so I couldn't capture them on the dark pics. I do apologize if the dark ones suck, I'm still working on my photo skills.
Well here goes.....




I hope to paint her in this scheme once I know she flies well...




Hope these meet with your approval,

JC

Tony,

She ain't the same, that's for sure. Here's that POS I just bought and totally rebuilt (the one we talked about on the phone)...The only original parts left from what was sent to me, are the screws and bottom floor plate for the frame. Other than that, she's totally new in regards to the airframe.



Kinda pretty don't ya think?
