Here's the maiden flight of my HeliArtist Augusta A109. :fly

The rear retracts worked fine on the bench, but the left wheel decided it wouldn't play today.


Build thread and review coming soon!

Hey Black Titianium, are you Mr Heli-Artist or simply the number 1 fan & test pilot for Heli-Artist????? Either way, I the HA AirWolf on order at this time. Any tips/tricks or got-ya's to watch for? What size blades would you recommend, 325's or 335's? (I've got the Align motor/35 ESC).
I debated long and hard between the AirWolf and the 109. Both look fantastic.

HeliArtist is a fan of my YouTube videos, flying their Hughes 500D and Jet Ranger, so they sponsored me the Agusta A109 fuselage.
So, in way I guess I am Mr. HeliArtist. :lol:

The blue Bell 222/Air Wolf, with retracts will be my next scale project.

BlackTitanium, Your 500 canopy is sick! Who painted that for you?

The 500 canopy is from CanoMod.com.

I contacted HeliArtist, for help and tips on setting up the retracts, and I've got them working properly now. :woot
Now if can only find some time off and weather to do another flight video, and also post the build thread.

Are you going to share the setup or fix that was offered to you from Heliartist?

Yes, I did. I covered it in the build thread.
