That looks great! Have you flown it yet? I hope you don't mind being bombarded by questions ...

How does it fly with the 3-blade heads? Did you try 2-blades first?

I assume you are using the MS Composites tandem mixer .... what type of mixing is on the heads -- 120* CCPM, mechanical?

radio is setup in h-1 mode.but yes the mixer runs 120 on both heads,the mixer does all the work.i bought it with the 3 bladed head system.i was actually working on it earlier fine tunning setup.did a few short lift offs in the living room,it goes straight up when u give it the collective,no tendencey to go left.its -15C so going outside it kinda outta the question,not to mention a foot of snow.gonna turn some heat on in the garage tomorrow and give it a wirl.i use the same 11.1v 2100 packs for my sev2 and man this think is like a honda civic and the trex being a caddy on battery power.all the spin ups/down adjusting tracking,ect,few hovers,i changed the pack cuz i had no idea where it was.put it on the charger and it took only 700 mah.

Hey Blackbear, looks great. I have one under the christmas tree right now. Wife won't let me touch it till the 25th.

I had downloaded the instructions, and it looks like nothing comes preassembled, is that the case? Looks to be a fair amount of work.

I see that you custom detailed your canopy. I assume there are decals in the kit and you decided to go your own way?
