Vario Robinson R22 build for a buddy.
Sweet talked into building the above for a good mate, he sure can fly, but he is C**P at building, his words, not mine he he, SO, kit ordered, mechanics, Zenoah 26, head, mainshaft now in stock, fuselage will be 3 weeks, so all in hand, this is the colour scheme he wants me to paint for him.

hrbeta, hi, the mechanics are built as far as they can be, as no Futaba 9206 servo's innthe UK at the moment, may start doing some on the fuz, are you building the older version, or the new one with the VR22 mechanics, which keeps the cockpit free from engine ?
Enjoy your build, and a photo would be good when you can Sats |

Built the head today, need to start on the fuselage mounting points next, as for my A Star, it's done bar the fuel tank and plumbing, the reason my A Star isn't done is this Robinson my mate was pushing me to build, he he, buddies.

I don't need friends like that.. I've got enough projects of my own to deal with.
