Default My Goblin 500 build
Hi guys just wanted to share my 500 build, I tried night flying this year for the first time after seeing it at ircha 2013 was hooked.
Had built a 450 for a trial now had sold that at the end of the summer and just picked up a second hand gobby for the upgrade ))

Cheers Tom

Going to maiden tomorrow Jan 1
Happy New Year everyone !

Beautiful build.

I'm curious, as I'm preparing a build myself, how will you spot if it is in normal or in inverted flight?

Hey Johan the skids play a big role, they are lit white on insides as well as outsides and I'm hoping the contour of the LEDs will hep also.
Normally the blades will have different colour top and bottom but I got these real cheap so will try and see, if I don't like will build my own set
I'll report back when I get a chance to fly, above freezing today but raining
