The Hatori 544 has been mounted, among other things. Thanks guys for all the trouble. Now I can move on with the electronics.

Thanks bro. Normally when the heli is new, it gets good attention.....after a few rounds of repair, things will be different

[fuse]

no la, heli must always be in tip top condition. sir..
for flying safety ...

No doubt about that...fully agree.

BTW what do you use on your Heli to check RPM? Onboard Tacho, Cyclo or Radar?

[fuse]

model avionic tach

wah....so high tech....

I use ear tach....+-200rpm accuracy...

i use the self-destruct meter....if headspeed is over, the heli will self-destruct..

Thanks bro. Someone else can benefit from all this info. I have fixed up the exhaust port with high temp silicone gasket and secured the 544 with bolts.

The original screws that came with the 544 was replaced with one that is longer by 5mm to accomodate the nut.

All assemblies on the Bling50 is done. I think I'll just use standard decals to add some colour scheme. Anyone got decals to sell?

Can the Blue decals for the Raptor 60 be used on the R50? Blue is kinda nice.

Managed to get one tank run in this morning. The feeling is shiok man. I just love the Hatori and Hyper combination. Should have done that ages ago.

And it looks much better with decals.
