Furion Build Question
Well this is my first MA hell build and I am very very impressed. The quality of the parts is great and quite a dream to build.
I do have a question thought I bought the faster tail gear for it but when I got to install it the belt is too short. Has anyone else had this problem? Ive installed the normal gear an the belt fits fine, was looking at running a 1900, 2100, 2200 rpm HS. Will the normal tail be ok I'm running 95mm tail blades at the mo or should I get some 105mm for use with the normal gear. Any help would be great Thanks Gav. |

If you do decide to use 105mm on the tail you should get an extended tail fin to protect the blades from the ground. I use this one FURION 6 EXTENDED VERTICAL FIN

Thanks I see now, i have bought the extended fin from reading the posts on here.
Is it worth putting the fast gear on? Or leave it as it is? Will be a 12s setup. Working out where to place the electrics now. |

I use a 12S set up 4035-560 motor. I use the regular gear and 105's. I had the speed up pulley but found the angle off the gear to the idler pulleys was too great and did not allow for a "free" drive train. I like the regular gear with the larger tail blades. Buy the Custom heli parts tail fin and you are set.

Re: Furion Build Question
I run 12s TP 3850 with kde 600xf, regular gear and 105 blades. Balances perfectly with the batteries pushed all the way back on the tray, and flies like a dream!

Batteries now arrived, turnigy 4000mAh 30c. They weigh just over 600g each just slid them up the battery tray and it balances ok. Running a jive 80hv so using the internal bec to run my vortex, which seems a little more power hungery since the latest update. Using a emcotec mag safety switch which works very well so far whilst playing.
Hopefully finishing off the elec setup and maiden tommorrow. Cant wait seems like a beast with 12s and a pyro 700-52l motor powering it. |

I run the speed up pulley with stock tail blades. I didn't mod the boom, just removed the set screw so it goes further in. Tail is rock solid. Keep the belt tight and oil it with silicone spray, never had a problem.

I don't have a reliable tach so all I can provide is the mechanics...10s, 4025-550 scorpion motor with 12t on standard main. I believe it calculates around 2000 but again only an estimate. I will say it seems fast to me and she's no dog powering through big loops.
