and how hard would it be to put small servos in to save some wieght with that metal frame ????

You would get a worse result using a conductive material like carbon fiber.

Your side frames are aluminum, HHI says the frames are G-10.
Is the USA version different ?

Thanks, Chuck

Status: offline 		Here's a link for an alternate engine than the OS 15-CVA

It's a bit pricy, but will most likely fit, and puts out over twice the HP of the one currently being used in the heli. It has the heat sink and a rotary carb.

[URL=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LA3667&P=1]OS Buggy Engine[/URL]

By the looks of the heli, there should be plenty of space for this engine and it would mount right in place of the engine that they were using at the shop.

Jim!
