I'm using the 600 head and 25mm boom at the moment but I might switch if I come across a 400/500 head cheap.

Just KDS parts. Boom, landing gear, and metal tail blade holders.

Looking good, but I would drop the horizontal fin on the tail as well, with the boom supports missing its not doing anything anyway and it gives the heli a nice clean look.

Sorry. I got a bad vbar and had to RMA it. I did finally get some blades so now I'm just waiting on a working FBL unit.

What size blades are you going to use? Sucks about the vbar.

I picked up a pair of Edge 553 but a friend has a few pair of 520s I'm probably going to try as well.

So, you motivated me to steal the mini vbar off my 450 and put it on the new Logo. I flew it just a few minutes ago in the back yard and I LOVE IT. It's exactly like a miniature 600se. It is SOOOO light. I haven't calibrated my tx to the Koby90 yet but I could easily fly it at 50% throttle. Hopefully I can get someone to tach it in a little bit. I just 'putted around' for ~6min and only used 40% of my 6s3300.

should be well over 2000rpm.

2000 is what I am running on 600mm blades.

You need to consider weight.
