Mine is nothing new - the same old thing that everybody already saw it, especially Steve. :(

HeliMax MX400. It is all stock out of the box with a JGF 400 HD motor (9T pinion), Hyperion 30A ESC, Futaba GY240, JR Sport RS6UL, Futaba S3107. It flew this good because Steve help me set up!

Pretty well I guess, but I'm not flying as much I want to, I go to a high school far away so I get home at 5pm.. only can fly if I dont have much homework :?

Heres a vid of flight 32, that was a couple days ago.

You are pretty good. I am impressed! Seem like you don't need the training gear any more.

Nice video, your flying is so good, the circuits are well done, the landing looks so easy, you can ditch the training gear. The heli will handle and flys better.

Although when I landed (not shown in vid) I nicked a chair so one of my woodies broke... been waiting on CF blades to come in for a while..

Awesome photos. Does 1 heli make a history? lol Let's see, I need to find some photos...

Falcon40 300-size fixed-pitch


Upgrade main motor to Slo-Max motor
Upgrade OEM servos to HiTec HS-55
Replace 4410 MOSFET in receiver to HRF3205 (100-amp)
Upgrade Slo_Max motor to HDX300 brushless with Hobbywing ESC and PowerZone brushless converter
Downgrade brushless system to Slo-Max brushed motor (I like the simplicity)



[EDIT:] Oops, this doesn't belong here...

More history!
The Falcon is gone, replaced by a Honey Bee King 2.

Received yesterday (7/15/2008) and already have installed the brushless motor & ESC, radio gear, balanced the blades and am now working on trimming/adjusting linkages.
