concept1 Key Veteran Location: Youngstown, OH
| I have converted 4 LMH's, personally I like the stock crutch, because I move all the servo's to a new location for a more direct link. I move the tail rotor to the boom, and the ail, and elv to the apropriate side of the cross member on the frame. and use the kyosho atomic force 17 double turn motor, with either castle creations pegasus 35 esc or jeti 35. I like the 8 cells but 7 works but on 8 it screams. and either a 12 or 13t pinion gear. I have used mounts from both Al. and plastic, prefer Al, if you have a piece just bend to a L shape and cut to fit, bolt motor into a direct replacement of the norvel but on oppesite side, strap batteries on to left side nose ( i used velcro straps) battery will run down entire frame rail. and reciever and gyro on rt side, I found this setup will give perfect balance, and will perform better than norval, with 5-6 minute flights on 1700 scr cells, I may have pics if interested.
