just thought id show you guys teh mechanics that i am using in hte apache . she was designed around century hawk mechanics , but seing as i have a couple of ergo 30s that i have converted to 50s sitting here ,that is what i am using ,have been waiting on my clutch and it arrived yesterday from pete at http://powergrunthobbies.com.au/.so i finally got to fit my os hyper 50 today with teh hatori 541 manifold and teh 540 tunned pipe , this will give me the clearence i need

as i only have experience with tt 50 pro motors in my scale helis i was interested to see just how good these motors are ,well i have to say that i have always had a pretty reliable performance from my tt50s , but the moment i spun teh starter on hte hyper for teh first time she sang straight into life and into a smooth stable idle , definatley think my littlebird will be getting stripped down after teh apache is finished and getting an up grade to a hyper ,,so for teh first tank i just set the needles and let her idle over for half a tank then sowely increased teh throttle to about 50% for teh last half ,got her light on the skids but didnt go any further ,will run another tank in her tomorrow doing the same then ill get her up into teh hover .

heres another pic of teh apache , have started working on the tail now ,as soon as i am happy with teh ergo flying and have the hyper run in , ill start putting the mechs in
