Follow this thread, soon will insert pictures of this support.

Will this support be included in the kit or is it a separately purchased item?

[ronefrat]

Does the heli need an anti static cables like in the LOGO?

Thanks,
Ron

[g-bru]

Will you include the SAB swash plate leveller that you spoke of in the kit?

[goblinhelicopter]

Yes, in the kit the support flybarless single unit is included.

The Goblin is made of aluminum and carbon.
The pulleys are made of aluminum.
These materials are conductors.
The two tail pulleys are the same electrical potential.
You can not create electrostatic discharge.

No, the leveling of the swashplate is not included.

The size is about 58 x 100 x 35. Is not 100% rectangular.

Goblin Helicopters.

The images illustrate the mounting of three famous ESC in the Goblin.

Kontronik Jive 120
Scorpion 130A
Castle Creations ICE 160A

Thanks for the photos, I was just about to post a question on this. Looking at the photo with the scorpion ESC does it have the modified battery position you mentioned in the other thread to make room for packs up to 64mm? Is the modification made by re-drilling or slotting the holes for the alloy rods under the carbon battery plate?

I am hoping that I can use packs that are 64mm with the Hawk 120HV (Robby Roxxy) or maybe the CC ICE2 120HV depending on the room available. Can you confirm that there is room for either of these setups so I can purchase packs please.

This info is critical to me as well. Also is it possible to just mount the ESC on the side of the frames?

[McCollister911]

Kind of an offbeat question but what are the means for transportation? Do you have to remove the blades or is there some kind of holder supplied with the kit

The previous photos were with the standard position. (maximum height 60 mm batteries)

The attack bore with the position 64 mm
The CC 160 ICE can be used.

For transportation no need to disassemble the blades.
In the kit there is a blade holder.

Isn't that a Jive 100LV in the pic...not a 120hv? 120hv would be bigger than the 100lv im assuming but would still fit...

[Sao]

I'm curious as to how the tail boom is constructed.
Is it a one piece mandrel layup or is it made in two halves like a clamshell?

120HV has the same footprint as 100+, only about 1/4th inch thicker (6 mm, according to specs, to be exact) . Non-issue, according to pics.

Cheers,
Rok

Sorry for the mistake.
Attack two photos where you mounted the 120HV.
In the second image you can see the position of any 2S batteries.

i have a scorpion 4525-520LE waiting and it has 38mm long shaft... from those pics it seems that the shaft is too long to fit when batteries are installed... but still Tareq fly with that motor??? is Tareq's motor modified or...?

You can always cut the shaft with a dremel if needed. Not a big deal.

[Magneto]

what is the service life of the belts for replacement.

[504Rone]

How strong is the area around the esc? With the 700e I crushed many batteries during crashes and bad autos. I would hate to have to buy a new esc after every bad auto.

[chuongtd]

Mr. GoblinHelicopter,

What's the tallest motor that can be used in the heli? From the pics, it looks like the scorpion 4525 almost touches the top of the canopy already.
Thanks!
