Just finished installing mine

. (It's in my album if you want to see it.) I was hesitant and picked it apart with a fine tooth comb (nothing else to do) I have been told it should work fine. We shall see in about a week

Great looking heli. I like the way the blades match the canopy. What are you using for a speed senser?

Thanks my eyes are not happy in overcast so I wanted bright

. I wanted to give the KBDD blades a shot and there was a sale on white. They just happened to match the canopy nicely. Together if I cant see that I should just land

I am using the Align RPM sensor with 4mm magnets in the fan. The wire length is a little short (because it was designed for a 600N) but it works. I have been told the Spektrum back plate sensor for telemetry will work as well with the 3GX (no modification required).
