My whiplash is still holding up great. I crashed it pretty bad a few weeks ago, so here's a picture of it back together. It feels like I'm working on an old Harley now since we (at the moment) can't just go online and buy parts. Fortunately I stockpiled enough to keep fly this bird for a long time. I'm still very happy with this heli. We can start to say " they don't make em like that anymore" and mean it! Now maybe I'll have time to clean my garage lol.

Still flying mine. I picked up a 800 mm blade conversion kit and converted a spare Ex. Still my favorite Heli.

I read your post on that from January. Did you end up with the 115 tail blades and somewhere around 750 main blades? I have a logo 800 and have switched back and forth between 753 blades and 813's. I finally decided I like the 753 size better for that machine, though the 813's are nice as well. The shorter blades are more agile to me, at least on my logo.

I am running 813s and 115s. The person i bought the conversion kit from had both sets of blades and made me a great deal. I need to try shorter blades to see how they are.

Whiplash E and a Furion 6.
Up and running!

Whiplash 700ex still up and running. I flew three flights on it this morning

Wish I still had my 700ex but I do love my Mostro.

Frito169, It is your 700Ex that i stretched to 800mm.

guyguerra · 06-08-2015, 09:31 AM

I've put about 20 flights on it after the re build, and its flying better than it did before the wreck. It's flying perfectly, and I'm glad I still have it. The only thing I'd like to figure out is how to reduce the gear noise. I know the EX model is quieter, but I don't know why this is so loud. I've used dry lube on the gears, which didn't help, and I don't know what else to do. I don't remember it being so loud before, so it may be that the gears need to wear in yet. Still, I'm very happy with it.

The whiplash is loud, but I stopped caring after a flight or too. Performance is great!
