hi james , i build these projects not as scale , but just to try n get to fly , and most of all , enjoy . as with my first tandems , they have a tendancy to pitch down at the back when coming out of a quick circuit , and as no doubt i`ll find some different flying habits of this one too , which is what i like to do , i also try not to cut any parts up as i may go on to try something else later on . thanks for trying different parameters today , once my cyclocs arrive , i`ll get fiddling and post my findings . i`m looking forward just to hovering this one , as to me its different , thanks ady

hello , thanks chap , am awaiting three csm cyclocks to help me on my way

my very latest project , a gentle spool up to make sure nought hit , its two rex 600 bolted together , i have tried to hover this but didn`t have correct yaw , the electronics are being sorted , more soon , ady

hello there , the masts on the real one are at an angle , but i build my toys to fly , don`t actually do scale , but i will admit to this now being on hold cos i`ve built several tandems in the past , this one being the best , the other night i put together a k-max out of two rex pros i had laying about , will start a new thread on that one

hello there , thanks for your kind words , the c of g is slighlty forward of the centre , lots of quess work there , yaw is controlled by each swash tilting in the opposite direction , ady

hi , the motor is an align 600mx 510kv , hobbyking cont and two 6s 3000 turnigy packs , she`ll fly for 10 min and uses 1400ma outta the packs

the front auto gear turns the rear auto gear , this is the big white gear at the back , that in turn , rotates the head

yep , its two t-rex 550s bolted together , using a 12s set-up , the back is fed by torque tube , the blades are 90 degrees apart , so should not hit unless i crash it . csm 720 gyros help keep it stable-ish and a helitronix mixer allows my to control both swashplates

evening all , put this together , hope you like it   Edited By ady on 24/02/2012 17:49:11 Edited By ady on 24/02/2012 17:49:31 Edited By Chris Bott - Moderator on 24/02/2012 19:02:59

evening all , got myself a century mx2 foamie in green for a little hack about , i`d like to change the 3 blade prop for a 2 blade apc , its 12" in dia but i don`t know the pitch ? wondered if anyone else does please . ps . the instructions on these kits are rubbish , soooooo small is the writing , flys god thoEdited By David Ashby - RCME Admin on 27/11/2011 20:41:34

i`ve weighed the aircraft now , fully loaded with everything on board comes to a tad under 3000g , i`ll fly it asap and see about changing props at the field to find the best

hello one and all , i have a seagull edge 540 , 58" span , all up weight with the sc91fs is around 2500g appros according to web , not weighed it myself , i wanna go electric and using old heli parts i`ve come up with a scorpion 4025-630 , 6s 3300 , 14/7 apc e prop , 1800watts at 70 amps full throttle , should this be enough to give unlimited vertical , cheers ady

hello all , long time no speak , i`ve got myself a pretty little seagull edge 540 58" span with a 91 fs in the front that flys a dream . yet i want a bigger one , i see that seagull do a 77" span job for 180fs , but would prefer not to go over 120fs as my car is small . i`ve looked at lots of kits , but what would all you out there recommend around the 63" span mark , i have £200 for the kit , either the edge or the extra 260 , what do ya recon , cheers ady
