RE: converting

I would have to say no. What kind of heli do you have. I would think that the extra weight would be a problem.

RE: converting

Your .30 will probably not haul around a large .60 size fuse.

Check with Emile (CopterDoctor) in the Scale Heli Forum of RunRyder:

http://www.runryder.com/helicopter/f43p1/

He has mounted some Century 30 size Hawk mechanics into larger 60 size fuselages by extending the booms (very easily done with a wire-in-tube drive system) and using longer blades for a more efficient disc loading.
