Welcome guys!
Here we go,

Step 1:
gently take off the mSR canopy, skids and tailfin.

Step 2:
Relocate the tailmotor by sliding it 3.5mm towards the rotor and take off the tailrotor.

Step 3:
Put the mechanics into the fuselage but be sure the battery wire doesn't touch the gears (servo or main gear). Put 1 rod in the bulging and one rod in the 1mm hole (only the small pins on top of the rod!). In fact this fixing system has been engineered to keep the mechanics into the correct position but release on impact. This allows the system to absorb the energy by clicking out of position thus saving both mechanics and fuselage. To make it ready to fly again after impact just click it back into its original position and she's ready to fly again.

Step 4:
Put the battery connector through the belly of the fuse. Be sure the lead doesn’t touch the gears! Put the tail motor in position and use some tape to connect both halves of the tail and put on the tailrotor.

Step 5:
Slide your battery into the ADF launcher pod. Switch on your TX and connect your battery. Now you’re ready to fly your own Airwolf mSR. Have fun and many happy landings.

Me of course

How sturdy are the horizontal fins, or whatever you call those "wings" on the mid-section of the tail?

AirwolfRCpilot · 03-14-2010, 10:57 AM

Sturdy enough, that's for sure

I've never had one broken so far. In case of a major crash you can fold them back to their original shape. If they would break just use some PS glue (for plastic models) and they are as good as new.

Do you offer these molded in different colors?

SleeveofWizard · 03-15-2010, 02:38 PM

Im down to do a review for you if you want.

Let me know

Sure, any colour you like, but honestly 95% of the orders are the standard airwolf scheme which is the most beautiful one. The orange one as seen in the thread was to show the fixing system better. You might also like the unpainted ones if you wanna do the paintjob yourself.

Can you give details on how you added the wheels, where did you find them, etc? Also, how much weight do the wheels add? I don't have a MSR yet but its coming soon and I've been drooling over the MSR Airwolf ever since I saw it...but I would definately be interested in wheels if they don't make it that much heavier. I heard somewhere the Airwolf body itself adds a decent amount of weight.

EDIT: Also curious...with the price of these bodies, can they take the same abuse the MSR alone can? Don't want to spend a fair chunk of change only to have it shatter on the first crash. Being a newb to the MSR, I'm thinking I'll need to wait to put it on for a while anyway...but when I do get one will it hold up?

Varc · 03-18-2010, 10:22 AM

Those wheels look out of scale man! Nice job though! How much heavier?
