Well, I stopped by my house to grab something. My wife opened the door, noticed a box on the porch, and promptly grabbed it and ran through the house trying to keep it from me. After the chase, I opened the box and was pleased with what I saw. Everything looks nice, I'll take some pics and stuff tomorrow. The vastly greater quality over my other helis is apparent, but what I expected.

I've been pretty busy, and with the resurrection of the Falcon currently in the works so I can continue training, I am still waiting to get my servos and gyro for the RCT-450. I did spend the day today doing some quality bonding with the RCT-450. I went through it and locktited all the screws, and they needed it. Also sized the links, mounted the motor and esc, and did some Deans soldering on the esc and a couple of lipos. I sold a snow blower and will be selling off a set of studded snows this weekend, and that will cover the cost of the kit. Once I have paid that off (charged on a credit card, I hate debt), I'll order the gyro and servos. Not in a big hurry.

I paid the initial purchase of the RCT-450 off on the credit card today, and went ahead and ordered the rest of what I needed. I ordered the always popular:
Futaba 401 gyro
Futaba S9650 tail servo
Hitec HS 65 servos x3
Also ordered a Futaba R146iP PCM rx. I have two Futaba R156F micro receivers, and I was going to use one on the RCT-450, but decided due to all the metal on the heli i wanted to go with the better rx. I don't want to take the chance after spending all this money. I will use the micro rx when I do a seperates conversion on the 22E, down the road. Plus I like having a spare RX in case the stock one in the Falcon dies.
