Was wondering how you calibrated and configured your Talon 90. I ordered a 2S LiFe pack today so I can power the AR7200BX separately and do the endpoint adjustments.

zip ties just add more vibrations, the 2 way tape will remove a bit of the vibs

New canopy... At this point what's stopping me from calling this a hybrid 600? Since no one is making a variation of the new DFC canopy I decided to just order a 600 canopy.

Where did you get those great looking skids?? BTW, your heli looks great with that 600 canopy. Did you have to do any modification to get it to fit?

The skids are tarot CF skids with 700 pipes cut down to size. The canopy ... I'm still playing around with mounting , you'll definitely need to drill new holes and mount canopy clip to make it work.
