the problem with that is that the body currently is made of styrofoam with a balsa bottom which acts as a landing pad, so it would not support a landing structure such as that. remember, a lot of my landings are less than perfect so between the styrofoam being flexible, durable and light and the balsa keeping it from crushing, it's really the best landing pad. a CF stucture on the bottom would never stand up to a 2 lb craft landing at a 60 degree angle at above optimal landing speeds. Correction, the CF would stand it but would break the bottom of the craft. I dont really care if it puts more pressure on the top bushing. I can replace them with ball bearings for about $2.50 a pop and if lowering my CG relative to the prop position costs me $12 every couple of years i would say it is better than constantly repairing it every time i have a hard landing. I am not going to sell my pg03s until i can get my hands on the heading locks. i assume that you are looking for the actual gyro chips? I will probably sell them for fair market value, due to the fact that cash is tight, and not only am i trying to get two heading lock gyros but i am also trying to save up for a 3d electric foamy to practice my 3D stuff on, and for a good brushless set up it's going to cost me about $350. Although, If i am unable to get a retailer to get me some kind of a discount between them, i probably will not sell until i can afford the gyros normally in which case i would probably sell them to you for a bit less becuase $$ is not as tight. we will see. Either way, we should start up a website containing all our efforts and ideas, stories of our successes and the journey getting there, pictures, videos etc. What do you guys think? I only have 5 megabytes, but if somebody were willing to host it i would gladly contribute. That way, rather than having people search through this thread to see what we are doing, we could jsut post links to the website so people can referance info and stuff, but still use this thread to communicate, and maybe the website will grow. What do you guys think?
Cheers,
