Well briefly, I'm still using the Frenzy main gear but with a T-Rex 700 Nitro clutch bell and 14T Pinion.
The clutch hub is made by myself to suit the Zenoah engine.
I also had to make a new clutch bell bearing carrier. to suit the 700REX clutch
The only other part I made was the new frame baseplate to suit the RC Zenoah engine.
And that's it, easy !!

Hello Dingo,

Just great, as IMO helibug-conversion kit has the main drawback, that IMO it does not make sense to buy a Frenzy-90V2 for USD 300.- (including shipping, custom & taxes) to pay another USD 300.- for a conversion kit

..

Sure, time is money too, but your approach makes sense to me

..
From what I have seen, you relocated the throttle servo tail-wards? I guess that's not
the only mod on the side-frames ?

Thank you very much for sharing your findings,
Best Regards,

Oliver

If and when I get my CNC Mill up and running I might make kit ???
But that is a BIG but.
I agree on your thoughts about Helibug Pricing. For me in OZ to do one of his conmversions would cost me about $450. Which is about $200 more the Frenzy costs.
But you have to remember he is in business to make money, not friends.
And if you don't have the skills or equipment to duplicate his product then you really only have two options, buy it or not but it.
But I'm old school and will always try and make it myself if I can, because a dollar is still a dollar, and better off in my pocket.
