yes, Mr. Chan is done with the design so the next step will be to find out about parts.

I would buy this conversion, not a fan of the Goblin 570 due to the OS 15 engine. Even if the engine does at some point prove it can run with out eating it's self you have to have a difference fuel for it then the bigger gas engines.

KDS USA has agreed to put together a "short" kit so just need to determine what isn't needed to get that started

Ok, hey guys.

Sorry for the Info "blackout" but I have been trying to get the Canopy scanned to run final clearance checks.

So...i finally got the scan back, all looks ok !

I am finishing up drawings right now and Raja's Generator mount.

Drawings wont be released as I have only this week been Informed KDS is making a small but significant change, Carey's getting more Info (from OHB). As soon as we get the Info I will re-adjust the model and get BETA kits organised.

Anyway.....last chance for comments gents : D

We have Included Booya QR for fuel tank holder due to concerns about getting to the plug quickly and easily....anyways enjoy.









Thanks again all that contributed, we think this will be a great little conversion !

Joey.

+1 I was really hoping for the Synergy G7 RC format but this machine is obviously going to take its place on the next must have list of Gassers. Yeah I can picture a few of us with these at IRCHA 2015. Come on Joey Get-R-Dun!

Looks great Joey. Any chance of a flat plate over the tail boom where it enters frame similar to the Whiplash. I run the older HC3SX FBL unit and it tends to overheat in the California air if it is inside a canopy. Any pre order info yet? Thanks. Don

Hey Joey!

My Agile 7.2 is waiting to be converted! I don't know what to do with the LiPo's after the conversion, but who cares! I'll have a hot-rock'in-gasser!!! LoL!

Default Jewel mount

While updating, I think we need to make the generator mount stronger, I slept over it and I'm afraid it could snap from a) high g's and vibes, b) a sudden stop against the ground, or c) direct impact from a crash. Please consider another post or two or side plates for the top motor plate and many thanks Joey!

Looks awesome Joey. This is going to be my next heli. The pre-converted kit will be sweet. Put my name down for one of these also.
