My E5 build begins!

[Indokast]

Hi Synergy fans! I just wanted to say that i have most everything i need now to put my E5 together. I am excited. It will be my biggest heli to date that is actually together. (12S e7 still on hold even tho it is ready to be put together. I decided to drop back and do a 6s e5 first).

I have purchased much of it used so wish me luck lol.

Setup:

Jeti mezon 130 running int bec
Scorpion bug
O.S. motor 1260kv
Bk 7002hv cyclic
Torq bl9288 tail
Ikon w spektrum sats
Probably tm1000 for telemetry
550 zeal
Rail tail blades 96mm

Will go from there. I may be asking some questions! Hope to have it at ircha if im comfy with it by then.

Cheers!

If you haven't checked this video build series that Chris Sexton did, it's definitely worth a watch.

I will give that a looksy asap thank you! So far i got the airframe together (for now until i start testing electronics) the motor and new jeti mezon are mounted and ready. Taking it over to a friends. I need servo tabs to mount the servos. I dont have any so those are gonna have to wait.

Few things i noticed as i bought it used.. couple screw holes were stripped. Luckily i have 0.5mm larger screws and they locked in good. And i believe the tail center hub needs replaced.. one blade grip is leaning in ever so slightly. And i need grease that will fit in the rotor grips..

I may like this heli more than any i own!

Anyone know a good place to get custom or non-stock canopies?

He's closing the shop and you've only got until tomorrow to order. Everything he still has in stock is 30% off. Just follow the instructions. Alan's a great guy, you don't have to worry about getting burned just because he's closing shop.

Thanks for link. Sad he is closing up shop.

That's a great looking Heli! Sweet setup too!

Did you look through the list of Synergy parts on HeliLids? Alan probably has the stuff you need to complete the build.

Sweet! I have so wanted to get one of these heli's in the near future, so long as the budget allows it of course. Have you got her all put together and going by now? I know this thread is getting a wee old so bear with me please
