Default So just replaced the tail hub , getting close to finished

I got my order today and got the new tail hub I just got finished putting it on.

well I see how the stand offs would be more support, just surprized how small the screws that now hold the tail grips on are. I understand for it to be same size as the older hub the bearings would need to be larger well the ID would be.
Everyone said the new one is what I needed so its got it now.
#204651 if anyone else needs to replace theres.
I got a older kit that had never been built so it had the older style.



Well I am getting closer and closer, Can't wait to put power to this thing and hover it.

This is what its got.

Gaui 425, Replaced Tail hub stock gears ( plan to replace stock OWB as soon someone has them in stock)

Futaba s3004 cyclic ( I know not best but had two already and another member here uses them)

Futaba 9253 Tail servo (Thanks Frank)

Logictech 2100t Gyro (Thanks Frank)

430MM fiber glass blades (Thanks Frank)

Castle creations 100A ICE esc ( that's to my father for getting it when seen good deal , not to pay him back)

Just got to get a motor now, 1400KV is what I want, Scorpion i think but I guess will replace bearings from the start.

Will be using (2)3s 2250's to make 6 cell.

cant wait to see the finish product, and maybe a vid. just make sure the loctite is nice and cured on those tiny tail hub screws, I have tossed a tail grip twice on that hub because of that.
