5 Blade Rotor Head - How To Transport ?

flerpie · 07-22-2009, 05:56 AM

Got me a couple more FES units on the way.
And a Gaui Hughes 500 Scale body.
Gonna put a 5 blade head on it. And prolly the 5150
motor and CF tail boom.

How do folks transport a 5 blade head?
Remove it before putting it in the case?
Doesn't look like one can gracefully fold back the blades.

Does anyone make an option for a 4 blade tail rotor?
(maybe I missed it on the microheli website?)

Thx for the info.

For the case, you should find a case that fits, with the heli's "open" blades :o.
For the 4 blades tail rotor ... I don't know ...

hmmm. Pelican it is then. And seems like
nobody does a 4 or more tail rotor for the
200-250 class.

I have seen them for a 450 but not a 200.

You have to take the blades off, at least that is how most do it.
