Another build with the Spartan. Looking forward to it Bob.

LITHIUMSTATIC · 04-24-2008, 09:41 PM

Can't wait to see the progress of this build! Great new heli on the market. I got to look one of these over at B'ham and it's a really well thought out design.

skid · 04-25-2008, 02:31 AM

I'm a little confused. Would the 600e be a phazor or a stinger ?

LITHIUMSTATIC · 04-25-2008, 02:33 AM

phazor

Finless · 04-25-2008, 02:42 AM

Your right... I screwed up the title... It's a Phazor!

Bob

Finless · 04-26-2008, 04:16 AM

First video up!

Bob

DominicD · 04-26-2008, 10:00 AM

Dangit it Bob put down the camera and go fly !!!! Someone has to harass Skiddz about his pool !!

Finless · 04-26-2008, 10:02 AM

Leaving in 1 hour to go fly all day! Skiddz was going to come up and join us but the pool SUCKED him in again

Bob

DominicD · 04-26-2008, 10:12 AM

I bet i will be moving to CA before he ever finishes that pool so i might get to attend the grand opening.

Finless · 04-30-2008, 01:48 AM

Just started the build and put up a TON of videos today!

Enjoy!

Bob

pam-mo · 04-30-2008, 02:08 AM

thank you so much for the videos finless :-)

Mr. Slumber · 04-30-2008, 04:16 AM

Is the Gohbee a keeper? I'm thinking about getting one and being the first one to fly a Phazor here in Germany...

And thanks again Bob for all your work and videos!!!

Finless · 04-30-2008, 10:18 AM

Link fixed for 5, 6, 7

Bob

DominicD · 04-30-2008, 10:37 AM

Jeeze Bob do you sleep ? I know its never been your thing but whats your opinion on that unusual frame ? Also any idea why they choose to use alum screws ?

flyinfool · 04-30-2008, 12:25 PM

Looking good so far Bob.

The aluminum screws save a significant amount of weight and are made of 7075 aluminum so they are plenty strong.
There are some steel screws where needed.
Besides the aluminum screws look cool.

Finless · 04-30-2008, 02:04 PM

Yep I was very suprised at how strong the Ali screws are. I expected to strip one or 2 but have not and some things I do tend to tighten up really well (like the motor mount).

The frame IS very different for sure.... But it is also a TANK as in super strong feeling. Not sure I have come to any "I like it or not" conclusions yet... I need to get it done and fly it first

Bob

LITHIUMSTATIC · 04-30-2008, 10:15 PM

I like how it has break away skids, canopy posts etc etc. Very well thought out design for us crashers. I like the looks of the blue screws.

What Lipo are you going to run Bob?

Finless · 05-01-2008, 03:54 AM

I will be using 8S Outrage 3700's and FOR SURE FlightPower 4250 EvoLites...

Bob

rotorhead58d · 05-05-2008, 05:32 PM
