I needed some balsawood from a crashed plane, two magnets from an old destroyed indoor brushless motor and 4 cm of 3mm carbon fiber rod

A small video also!

thats a neat idea, i like it, looks like works very well too..this was one thing that i hated about the logo body's they still use the grommets wonder if they make quick release's

Thanks! I know you can buy magnet mounts for trex 600 canopy and they work really damn well. Not sure which fits the logo's but that should be easy to find out

Great idea Trulsen what did you use to stick the Balsawood to the canopy?

Superglue! Don't know what you call it in English but it is this thin, fast drying glue.. We call it superglue

Yep, this is awesome, but doesn't work well;l if the Booya canopy mount! My last 600 3D had the booya, the SX will have the Canopy Lock with standard canopy mount.

Booya makes a quick release for the Logo. I had on my old 3D, but honestly didn't like much. I think the canopy lock using magnets is better. A friend of mine uses that in our field is it is quick and clean. The booyas don't get even close.

LOGO 600SX

1 Airframe with 603/95mm edge blades
1 KDE Direct motor 530KV and 12t herringbone pinion
1 Kontronik Helijive 120+ HV esc (using bec)
1 Vbar Silverline 5.3pro
3 Futaba BLS451s on cyclic
1 Futaba BLS254 on tail
2 Turnigy 3850 nano techs (65-130c)
2 Turnigy 3300 nano techs (65-130c) \
2 JR sats

Controlled by the trusty DX8

Took it for a test run first off down at the park for a gentle hover and got a couple mean az 90 degree tail kick CW and both being close to the ground and just about buried it in the soft currently being developed soil on the rugby pitch. Found it was a static issue so added the kit on and a...ok now!

Had a couple goes down at the field and shit what a beast ae, its humming at around 80% and not sure I want to go any further due to how much power is rolling out...me 700 scares me enough! Brought the tail gain down to around 65 on vbar and now about to get out of the test faze. Got the kontronik on mode 3 with active gov over 50%






MIKADO RIPPING UP IN NZ!!

Nice please make sure if you have not to have a small dab glue to sensor into module, as well run a piece of servo tape across all servo tabs into module, "just in case". Heli and setup looks great!

[Johnda]

Yes, very nice. Also turn you ESC over, you have the heatsink facing into the frames

[bavci_0655]

Here is mine dream heli!

P.S.: That old Castle esc will be replaced as soon as new Scorpion Commander VI esc is released. But it works perfect for now.

Yea i saw everyone else doing it but decided against it. Rather right side up

Well when it overheats don't complain too much

From the HeliJive manual, page 14:

4.5 Cooling/Fixingchanged under (2.0-3.2V/cell).voltage Default:Sufficient cooling increases efficiency and lifespan of the ESC. The HELI JIVE ESC improves performance with increased cooling. If the HELI JIVE ESC is fixed on the model leave the cooling plate uncovered (Heatsink, #9470). Other, heavier heatsinks may put mechanical pressure on the ESC and may damage the ESC.The ESC should be fixed to the helicopter such that the heatsink is showing to the outside.

If your flying style doesn't warrant a heatsink, then you can of course leave it off. At the very least leave the cooling plate uncovered.

We're just trying to help -- not criticize, but hey, it's your money/heli. If you don't mind if the ESC thermals every other flight or dies an early death at least the decision is your own.

Those colors look awesome! saweet! pics !!

The esc doesn't get warm at all on this helicopter. I have it the same way and it is cool every flight. But good that you give a hands up!

I had it that way for a while too, without issues. But it wasn't intentional i've flipped it over, just to be shure
