Hello everyone
My first Hirobo heli, I'm told they are very nice helicopters.
Picked it up today at a garage sale for $100 Looking forward to finishing it up and flying it. I'm thinking Jet Ranger body.

I already test flew it as pod and boom. Had some engine related problems but got it sorted out. It's flying quite nicely, pretty responsive and powerful for a 70 |

My electric SDX
Since this thread is very quiet I thought I'd put up a few pics of my SDX converted to electric (12s using Align 600mx/510 motor and Hobbywing 70HV).
I have just made a few improvements. Swapped out the HW ESC for a Jive 80HV and using the internal BEC with a small buffer pack. This allows a better layout and a little less weight.

I was also going to convert to EP, but wanted to build a 600 size 5 bladed head. So i was thinking of building a new sdx/ep/penthead. These helos fly so good and is why i was thinking of going this path as a choice of heli. I just finnshed an hk450v2/pent as a test build and was very successful so the sdx/ep/pent is still something id do.
Dont know what it is but it is a ghost town in here. The SDX has lost its peak but not its longevity in flight and performance. I still fly everyweekend i can.

My SDX was actually my first 12s electric heli. I remember my very first flights with it on electric power and I was literally amazed, it was a total rocket! I had never experienced anything like that before coming from being all nitro and my only electrics having been 6s (Trex 500 and Outrage 550). With the 5 blade head you may have to run on 10s or something to get it efficient enough at your target headspeed (or maybe a quite low KV motor). I wanted to go 12s so I could use batteries I already had and I opted to stay with a 10 tooth pinion and the 87 tooth delrin main gear and this is pretty good for 2000-2100 headspeed with the stock rotorhead and 600mm blades, it's still maybe a little steep gear ratio but it's close enough that everything is running cool and there's bags of power.
