Great looking stuff Rich! Is that one of the new super tough main shafts that I heard was coming also?

Don't quote me but I'm pretty sure with the DFC, a shorter shaft and AR guide had to be made and they did hardened shaft.

I just found out this morning I was getting it for IRCHA. I'll get more info shortly about it I'm sure or Luca may chime in.

New look for IRCHA.

HD CF stretch boom is sweet. Just comparing the booms only, it's 3g's lighter. I trimmed a total of 12g's going to the CF stretch boom set up.

Had a great time. Mack Knapp had CNE issues with canopy rubber band so couldn't put that up. He flew his Arbitraus maiden and flew it great. Take offs and landings were stop on for a Biplane.
I had 450X pushrod snap on spool up so that didn't go up. 300X flew great. I did bust the tail fin landing. I had a thumb twitch and bail the first landing attempt but broke the fin. Re-try was a smooth l...anding finless. SAM, well flight was great, no stability used, windy, great, but landing I hit TH instead of stability high to compensate for my first windy landing and became my first auto. Fail. Landed flat but broke tail fin, battery tray skid mount and the Lynx Heli Innovations skid mounts spread out buy the CF struts have NO damage.

I thank everyone in their helping me and making this possible. You all deserve a congrats as well.

I also thank Luca and Lynx for their support and understanding. You all are a classy company. I'm proud to be a part of Lynx.

I guess after all this time, this thread will remain open, but my 450X journey has come to a close. Thank you all for following and maybe check out my 300X (Lynx 270, Goblin 570, 550X (in Blade mini forum) and X3) threads for how my journey is going.
