Default Want some Naked Pics!

Looking to buy a 500 sized heli, and the Compass 500 is heading tot he top of the list.

Can some of you guys post some close up pics of the 500 Naked, meaning with no canopy from a few different angles?

Thanks in advance!

Note that I patched the frame under the battery tray after a nose-first crash. It was easier than replacing the frame halves.

Experience is something you obtain only after you need it.
I wouldn't mind social media so much if it didn't involve people.

The tail end is always naked.

Is this good enough? It's from my initial build in 2009. The photos above are from my FBL conversion this year.

Alan

What do you have wired into your ESC?

BTW Povern - I'd suggest checking out the first sticky thread - I got some good ideas on how to wire my Atom from those pictures - many of which are naked.
