Blinging my Twister 3d....
I managed to break a blade grip and swashplate on my new Twister 3D, so thought I'd bling it up. Initial cause of the crash was down to a bust servo (As I took off it flipped straight over) So 3 new HS55's put in.
Then it was a case of stumbling across the newly released swash, washout and blade grips on JP's website...
This is where the fun starts. the blade grips won't fit on the stock rotor head and no CNC rotor head has been released yet.
The parts I do have are beautifully machined just can't wait to get it all put together.
One other thing I'd quite like to know is if anyone recognises this as a rework of any of the other heli's out there? I think it's made by esky, but comparing it against the cool it seems quite a bit different.

Hi Wilbur
[link=http://www.modelhelicopters.co.uk]Midland Helis[/link] has the entire metal head.
Just type Twister into the search box on their main page and it goes right to the part.

I saw those parts on Midland heli's too - when I learn to hover my CP V2 nose in, I'll get some awesome bling parts! These little Twisters are very cool, yet there seems to be some confusion as to who actually makes them. In the UK, JP distribute them and produce the instructions. In the land of Oz, the names 'Model Engines' and 'Awesome RC Products' are evident and it's also what appears on the box and on the DVD.

Yes it is awesome products by model engines.
The parts come in as jp.
Jp also distributes other accessories in Australia.
Model engines are a massive Australian importer of all rc products planes, boats, cars, helicopters and many accessories too.

Thanks - mystery solved. I'm really enjoying this little twister - Heli's are alot of fun. My thumbs have never had such a work-out - and that's coming from someone that owns 3 games consoles!!
