Xtreme Canopy (Plastic)

Nice... thanks!

One thing I did do this weekend was trim the canopy:
- on the top where the Factory BL motor leads hit the canopy
- on both sides where the servo horns pass by the canopy. They were rubbing.

I do have the canopy pin gizmo's on all my Nanos so my horns (and servos) are pushed out 1.5mm or so which is probably why the horns rub so badly. Nothing a razor couldn't make short work of though.

I won't call in to work because I just got back from a 2+ week vacation for the holidays... but I'm sure I'll start on it when I get home tomorrow evening at least.

I like the decals for the canopies... I just suck at putting them on the curved surfaces without wrinkles! There's probably a trick to doing it I'm not aware of... but yeah, it also seems like the little bit of added weight has really helped stabilize the heli too! It doesn't seem anywhere near as squirelly as it was with the original canopy on it... seems to fly much smoother, although, it gets hotter during flying now... I have to let it cool a little between flights or the motor just has no power at all. (My guess is I'll be replacing it soon... )

Get a room you two...
