DIY OXY 3 (255mm mains)

[RichKnapp]

Mat Kramer and I build DIY night OXY 3's. Here is mine. I'm no smack flier more big sky sport.
Running a small 3s in belly for body LEDs.

I'm going to add a light or 2 on the tail seen my OXY 3 is a designated night heli. Matt can change his out to full day flier.

Here is vid of my first ever night flights and maiden of my night OXY 3.
(poor camera for night videoing sorry.)

Hey Rich are you running the same 3s 350mah that Matt Is?

Rich is using 1s 125mah batteries on the blades like I am, and was using a 350mah 3s pack ( may have been a 400 mah or so) like I was for the first few flights, but after we added more lights to his tail, he built a plug to run 12v off the balance port of his 4s flight pack to save a little weight... I may end up doing that as well as long as everything on his stays reliable.
