Hey Leif, the canopy is a sure fit. I think a good name for it would be the, Hirobo Transwarp 90.

I think it's high time for Hirobo to be recognized that it is a Japanese company and the new heli needs a name to reflect that. I vote for:

"Godzilla"

Sorry, I had to do it!!

Wouldn't that be "Godzirra" in actuality?

if hirobo chose their original after seeing that Leif they would have rocks in their heads.

Just one more thing that i think could improve it again. It seems too "heavy" at the back. Notice how the aurora has a small radius towards the back top edge? Maybe you could raise the lower curve from the front of the gear up to the upper rear mount to "sleek" it up a bit. You dont mind Phototshopping once more?

It looks so much better and it's almost there.

MRC....I wouldn't buy it like it looks on the right in the last pics but I would on the left. Looks are very important.

Cheers

Yup, we worked on the looks for about 5 pages,

I now make an official request to Hirobo to provide each of us with a prototype so we can work on the important stuff which will require some flying

I actually like the above verision the best so far. If you shave the point off of the canopy just above the center of pipe and make it more of a soft curve up to the corner of the canopy, I think it will be perfect. Below is my poor attempt.

How about FreyR...who is the brother of freya and partially replaced freya. Not to mention that the Japs like to put a R to anything that is of performance to them- Honda type R, Silva Type R, GT-R..

I'd like to see a reverse curve on the bottom back of the canopy to see if it thins it out a bit.

care to have a try? Please?
