Clean setup
What are your plans for a battery tray or support?

Update: She has flown!!!
Finally had time to get everything installed and set up. It has been raining here for a month :-) and today is no different... Misting and the grass is soaked but I had to try it out. It flew great !!! It felt more responsive then the 600e stock setup but to be fair this is a complete new bird with the flybarless setup and the new frames. The heli balanced perfectly with the 12s A123 pack. With LiPo pack you should be able to slide them in a little more if you want. I have 2 things I want to change: 1) Landing gear mounts. I ran out of room to mount equipment so I am going to make a frame spacer from 1/8" fiberglass so the original lower tray/landing gear can be used. This will give a nice surface for the batteries and other equipment and hold the canopy better. 2) Slight adjustment around the anti rotation bracket. Need to move it a couple of mm for clearance. Besides that I am very happy with the outcome! PS: To respect the moderators wishes I will not discuss sales in this thread. If anyone is interested you can PM me and I will start another thread in the proper location. I have not decided on selling anything so this is not a sales pitch, just trying to do the right thing. :-) |

Well I received my order of black G10 and cut the latest version of the lower frames.
I went back to the original landing gear mount. It works out much better for strapping down the batteries and gives some extra space for radio equipment. The last picture shows a 12s A123 pack installed but its hard to see because the battery has black heat shrink. I am going to cut a couple of kits next week if anyone is interested. I will start a new thread when they are ready. |

This is awesome. I wish there was a two part frame like that for the 700 with the bottom made out of G10 so that the G10 would take the crash damage instead of the carbon fiber.

Isn't G10 the same material Mario uses?
Anyway Kregan, this is good stuff. You seriously need to produce kit's and make some money off these beauties!

Just got the K-Frame kit in the mail today..
All I can say ...... Very well made Metal section is incredibly rigid, fit and finish is top quality. Already started the build..fitted BOCA main shaft bearings to the blocks, going to wait till the morning to continue, but this build is taking the original design one step further from a 600 and stretching it to 700 for an AP rig. Pics to follow
