So here are some pictures of my new Bell 222 on my Trex 450. It's been a lot of work so far but a lot of fun. Most of the time was spend on custom retracts. I just wasn't happy with a wire hanger bent with foam wheels on it. So these have rubber tires and suspension, all home made!

Still have lots of work to do, but let me know what everyone thinks. It will be pretty heavy, but I'm into scale flight, so not a factor to me.

Here are a couple of videos on the lights and gear as well as a training flight before I started working on the fuse. Don't worry, I'm much better now!

Looks good, I'm planning a Bell 222 for my T600E.

What paint scheme are you going with?

Hey man, noticed your from DesPlaines. I live downtown Chicago. Is there any good clubs or places to fly around here? I've lived downtown for about 7 months and havent found anywhere to fly that realatively close. Would love to find some geeks like myself in the area.

Looks good, retracts looks like they work great. Where did you get that fuse from? Seen so many different places to get them
