RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

Hey Scott,
Thanks for the info on the batteries. And yeah, it is very sad that people would use the public ball fields as their waste dump. I was talking to a guy there last week when I found it...

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

Well, I didn't have lots of time to fly today, but I did get to run 3 batteries thru the newly rebuilt BH450, and it flew perfect.:D I guess I can quit crashing now since I learned how to repair...

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

Hey Scott,
Sorry to hear about your Hyp. motor failure on the 550 in the other forum. Are you gonna use the z-30 in it now. How do you like Ben's frame? Been thinking about getting one, but then, I...

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

Well, it seems that the BH450 will be back in the air soon after all. I emailed Ka-Planes and advised them about the faulty swash plate. Christina emailed me back and asked me to give her a list of...

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

Well, after a complete rebuild, including new swash plate, all new link ends, dampers,spindle shaft, etc. I took the BH450 out to the field today. Spooled it up into a hover and it was perfect....

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

Well, I got my parts today and got the BH450 repaired, sort-of. Since I ordered some spare parts Before the crash, I didn't get an extra set of CF blades so I put a set of woodies on it for now till...

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

Well Scott, I think the frustration was simply because I don't have the parts right now to get the BH450 back in the air. Still didn't get the parts I ordered last Thursday. You know me, I won't...

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

Well, I guess I jinxed myself. Haven't had a crash in quite a while, which was good since I didn't have any of the 'normal' crash repair parts on hand. Ka-Planes recently restocked the BH450 parts,...

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

I really like the colors on that canopy Scott. When I built my Hurricane 550 last winter they didn't have the Fusunos in that color scheme. Now it seems that Helidirect is out of stock on it and...

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

Lookin good Scott. I like the canopy. Is that a Fusuno from Helidirect? It looks much better mounted on a heli than it does looking at just the pic of the canopy itself.

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

Well, I guess today's lessen was about the importance of doing a good pre-flight inspection.
I went out to the field with 3 helis today for a few quick flights. Flew the King2 first and after a...

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

I had the Align step-down between the gyro and tail servo on my 550 too. They were cheap so I just ordered 3 of them while getting all the stuff for the build and figured I might need more someday...

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

Well you are a lot farther along than me since I don't really have the funds for all the electronics yet. At least yours will be flying before the snow does, but mine likely won't be. I probably...

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

Hey Scott, If you can find the Manual online for the Hurricane 550 it is a little better than the one that came with the 425, and since they are basically the same build it might help you some. And...

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

Looks like you will have a great heli when you are done Scott. The AR6200 should be fine for it. I have the AR7000 in my 550 only because it came with my DX7, and also used the DS821 servos that came...

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

Yep, any canopy made for the Hurricane 550 will fit. The Gaui A and B canopies, or the Fusuno canopy will fit. Not sure what tail boom conversion kit you got, but to convert to 550 you will need the...

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

Yeah, CNC parts are expensive for most all helis, but I got lucky. A couple months ago GrandRC had the complete Gaui CNC head assembly mounted on the main shaft on sale for $129 so I bought one....

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

Well, since I already have one running 550mm blades, I am gonna build it to run 425's, so I will need a higher head speed than the 550. I have decided to use the Tonic-X Z20, 1470kv with a 14T...

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

Scott, better check the dimensions on the Scorp 4020 after you assemble the heli as I don't think that it will fit between the pitch and roll arms. I think the diameter is too big. A real good...

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

I looked the manual over briefly today before I left for work. ( I work the 2nd shift.) The build is pretty much the same as the 550 that I have, with a few exceptions. The recommended head speed is...

RE: Helipro Blackhawk owners; Past, Present, Future

I got my BH450 and my Gaui Hurricane 550 both from Ka-Planes. Nice people to do business with.
Not sure how I will configure the new Hurricane 425 yet Scott. The one I have now was the 550 kit and...
