Here's my latest heli with a 5mm extended Carbon Fiber Outer shaft and a 5mm extended Titanium shaft.

This let's Me use a standard and LIGHTER micro heli upper head instead of the extended 5mm XTREME head that is heavier.

The idea of XTREME'S 5mm extended head was to prevent blade/flybar strikes and it works beautifully! However, it is a bit heavier than a standard aluminum head. Extending both shafts let's Me accomplish the same thing without the added weight.

I dropped enough weight to install the Carbon Fiber/ Aluminum Main Body Frame New from Microheli; (Thanks Shane for telling Me about that) that I have coming. Then, install my invisible wired lights on the new frame.

Then this thing wil really Bling !

Thanks!
