Unfortunately no... All good intentions of doing so but I should have known better than to try to finish something at IRCHA. I will be finishing the build this weekend.

hope your maiden don't end up like this.. was out flying today. and was about to end for the day. but had to get one more tank on it before leaving... but fortunately not to much damage.. flybar rod. 1 set to radix blades and the beautiful canopy got some nasty marks

The screw holding the pitch/aileron servo horn came loose and i loost the aileron control

[Finless]

I think this bird is TOUGH as nails... So I can understand you fared OK

Sorry to see it but I know it will fly again

looks like it likes it in the trees... is that a nest under it, LOL

Just sharing one small observation...when I built mine back in the spring. The tail pitch slider, with control arm, and control rod/guides was a bit sticky. More effort was require to push/pull the control rod to change tail pitch than is normally the case. The source was the tail pitch slider. When the new grip arms snap on the slider assembly, there is some initial binding. Don't try to loosen it up. It is stress from the grip arms when they are new. Once the assemby is together for a week or two, the stress is self-relieving, and the whole assembly becomes slick, and precise. The tail on this bird is excellent indeed.

I test flown my Fury 55 today. Dialed in the gy520 on the tail and starting to break in the engine.

Flies very well. Flies too nice for the likes of me.

Why put trust in a pellet gun when you can use C-4 and Det chord. Ahh yes, the wonders of high explosives. lol

OK 4 more videos posted!

Throttle Servo Setup
Tail Servo Setup
GP780 gyro setup
Canopy Mounting

See the first post in this thread for the links!

I am trying to get all of these done this weekend (Sept 4th) but if not I am going to the Lexington Ky (LMAC) funfly this coming weekend so these final vids "may" be the weekend after that.

Sorry for the long delay all.... My Wife started on a kick to find a new house before I left for IRCHA.... We are now in Escrow so you know what all that for the last 2 months has done to my free time

Great video for setting up the GP 780!!!.

I had no problem setting up mine. But the thingy is very sensitive. Took me a while getting my PRO tail vibe free and getting a solid tail with the 780.

Great build series cant wait to see the maiden flight of this heli
