Hi all just like to show you some pictures of the beast. This it my first 90 size heli and I think you would agree its a good choice. Its taken me two weeks to build which i have enjoyed. Had some problems along the way and missing parts but its finally finished. Desided to sticker up the canopy with printed vinyl because there was no time to paint it. (lucky I am a sign writer)
Lets hope the english weather holds up tomorrow for her first flight.

The hole canopy is printed vinly. even the screen with a small carbon fiber weave. I could have done a better design but I ran out of time.

Awesome canopy. Makes ya wonder who needs paint at that point? That would hold up a lot better. My fiance works a graphic company that print large format stuff, she's offered to make me some stuff. I'm definitely gonna have to show her this.
PM me your email address and I will send you the template in ai or EPS format. Needs to be printed on Cast or vehicle wrap. Thats a vinyl that can bend around corners with a little heat. Its easy to draw then spray using Illustrator or Photoshop.

Augusto has the best tast in muzka.
Put 6 tanks through the Aurora Saturday a boy this bird flys great. It was worth the wait. just need to tune the engine now. I am using normal setting on the head which I will stick with for a bit.
I must say after seeing this bird 2 years earler, I would never have dreamed about owning one.
Thanks Augusto for the best helicopter in my fleet.
