Tiger, just as a refresher, what are the dimensions of the model? HK has a lovely 4 Blade Prop, I would love it if you used that on your set up. But will it match?

oops! and where was I when this was typed?
Anyways! today I had an approval interview with Chevron & Texaco and am now, approved as a Certified QA?QC Inspector in the Wafra oil fields!
And VC bhai, I am currently not going to buy too many things from HK, this because, my shopping cart is almost overflowing.
Had been calculating and reducing the weight of my cart!
I am thinking of making one myself..what say?
Challega?

Ok guys!
I got 2 futaba micro servos
3 micro servos normal
25A ESC
1600 mAh 11.1V Lipo
Battery charger
and a brushless motor for around 3200 INR
according to Kuwaiti currency, things are expensive, but do you think this is a fair offer?
the bargaining and cribbing is still balance! ;D
So hope to bring out the best from this deal.
The motor and the 2 futaba servos are used for around 6 flights(that's what he said to me)
Fingers crossed!

Is this deal worthwhile ?

Ok guys!
Now now, I cannot buy things from HK here in Kuwait because of many reasons.
What I did manage to get from a local hobbyist is:
2 x 25A ESC
2 x Balance chargers (one is art tech and the other is something else)
1 x 12V power adaptor
2 x esky digital servos
2 x Futaba S3114 Servos
1 x 1600Mah 11.1V lipo from Art tech

The Chargers are brand new, 2 Esky are new and one ESC is new.
All for 3200INR!!
Good Deal??
I will be buying a brushless motor and clevis's today, so lets see what they have in store.
Lastly, he was giving me a EDF kit with the motor for 500INR, I din't take it :(  "zou baik"

Everything has a good side and a bad side!
My bad side is my "ignorance" I completely ignored the "expiry date and Production date Stamp" on the bottle and instead went on with the canopy!

This is the final result after painting and a little detailing. :thumbsup:

Its comin out good man! working like this, I think my eyes will pop out on the floor!  :giggle: :giggle: small details and all!
Of course! I will throw a boose + sheesha + karaoke party at Baga, because this is the last year of my Bachelor life.. :bow:
And secondly, about the Motor, are you sure?
I think it may be underpowered or a slow flyer!

Forget,
Know what?
lets decide on the motor in Goa!
Let me paint her and pack her up!
Ok guys,
What paint scheme??
