Default RE: RClander T33 for 90 or 120mm edf

While I wait for my spare Lander 120mm DF to arrive, I balanced my spare rotor using the Dubro [link=http://www.horizonhobby.com/Products/Default.aspx?ProdID=DUB499]Tru-Spin Prop Balancer[/link]. By using an iterative process of sanding heavy blades and clear enamel spray paint on the lighter blades, you can obtain a reasonable balance. The blue masking tape is used to keep the spray paint from getting in the center hole.

My friend gave me a drawing of the Thunderbirds helmet scheme. I haven't decided if I want to hand paint it on my pilots or maybe look for some decals.
