Thats the mantra of keep going even after a hard day at the office. I usually have mix of such glues - Blue, Red Green, orange et all . But only in limited quantity!!

Yeah, it ain't threadlock though . I call it the 4th axis gyroscopic stabilizer that not only stabilizes the flying but also the build process!!

Successfully test flown. All systems working flawlessly on the 3G.

Lavneet,
Congrats. and great picture.
BTW you are still on 72 Mhz ?

2 more pics from the first flight....

Hey Lavneet

How's it going with the 550?
How do you like the 550 compared to a 500?

I'm contemplating 550, if it's worth the extra $150.
And how much did it come to for you in total, if you don't mind

Thanks
Ajay

blades are tracking perfect!! Good job!
Where do you source your Align parts from?

this glue is made by Justerini & Brooks, very good glue for heli flying, used copiously, you wont even need the heli to fly

PS
