Warning: "Picture Intensive" MA Whiplash Nitro FBL "unleash the beast within"
Finally! My first ever FBL heli and it is from Miniature Aircraft..!!
Thanks to Team MA for designing such a simple and yet superb heli..!! Super duper impressive..!! Got home today and the Missy told me I got a present from the POST. Can't wait to build it but some pics as usual will be shared along while I am building it. It had been some time that I got so excited about a heli..AND THIS IS THE ONE!! The thread will be pictures intensive. So you had been warned. LOL.. Slowly savoring this piece of beast..Box to start with: Factory sealed and more..

Swashplate done!
Note the set screws that can be used later to tighten the bearing tolerance if any ever develops over time.

Guys, here is a note:
The thrust bearings are pre installed into the blade grips. They are already lubricated from the factory. There is absolutely NO NEED to take them out and lub it. Please kindly take note.

My first FBL head completed!
It had been a pleasant experience building this FBL head. Everything goes together nicely fitted. No slop at all! I am using the 3D dampeners and I am pretty damm sure that the hardcore 3D guys will like it. After flying the Fury 55, I am sure this FBL head will hold up like it's predecessors. After all, it is MADE IN USA and MA quality! Meantime, enjoy the shots..
