RE: Chinook scale build
I need to build a trailer, as I can't fit the chinook with its body in the car. This is a real problem because once the fuse is fitted the heli is un-transportable. I will need to adress this issue

RE: Chinook scale build
Maybe I should just tie the chinook to the back of my car
. Nothing of any real interest has happened lately in regards to the chinook, I've been a bit lazy over Christmas. Soon I'll get back to work.[8D]

RE: Chinook scale build

The fuse has been fitted tonight and as soon as the rain stops here ill do some more flight testing in the back yard and measure the current in and out of ground effect I imagine there wont be alot of difference with the fuse on however I will monitor the temperature of the motor.
