Who makes the fuse, it looks nice, looks similar to the Stacee.

If it's gonna happen it'll happen up there!

I see that my Trex sneaked in the picture. Oh well...
I got the fuse from hobbies & helis international, If you
wish, here is chris email(super nice guy)

Very minor mods. Kinda PITA installing the tail boom, get
some extra hands to do so.I spend more time painting than
putting together the mechs.

Very, very nice! We're starting to find some beautiful alternative glass for the Pantera/Tiger now. I do still like the Fury shape too.

Any increase in speed (balls-out Fast Forward Flight)with the stream-lined fuse?

Need to go faster!

it really tied the room together

Holy Heck, if you need to go faster than you already can with the stock canopy, you might wanna rechek your setup. My Tiger and my Panteras can scream down the flightline. My Raptors by comparison act like they have a drag chute deployed. I would certainly believe though, if you want more, that fuselage will do it for you!

Is there a reason for having your tail rotor blades on backwards?

Little boys never grow up, their toys just get more expensive!

Very nice. I'm looking for another scale project using the Pantera frame. How much was the fuse?

Is that the 50 Blackshark Fuse or generic Blackshark 60?

Can you post some more pics closeups?

If it's gonna happen it'll happen up there!

Same question as above? Which fuse is it? Looks super sharp.

That's a Blackshark 50 (or possibly 60) fuselage available from Irwin Siner. FWIW, I ordered one myself as well plus one of his pre-painted 50 size Jet Rangers. They both look decent enough to me.

Could you fit the boom on without the tail box on? Then slide it into fuse, then put tail box on after boom is slid through fuse?

Make sense? I do this on my scaler. Makes set up easier.

Learn to Fly,
Let me tell you that installing the tail boom
was very frustraiting. I had to use the wife hands
to make it fit, real PITA. But is there.

Here is a trick.
Tape the drive belt together with a small loop at the end.
Use the tail pushrod and tape that to the loop in the drive belt.
Now feed the pushrod and tailbelt thru the the tailboom.
Follow me so far? Bottom out the tailboom in the frame. Now take the tail case and feed the pushrod and belt thru the opening.
Pull all the tape and pushrod off and "bam" your ready to install the spindle with the the gear. Bolt the tail case together and now you can adjust the tension and snug things down.
Works every time.
