Booom!

The tail boom is fully assembled, including the internal torque tube to drive the tail. Next up are probably the servos. I also have a 6s 5000mah 30c battery and Spektrum remote receivers on the way :). These plug right into the 3gx Flybarless system.

Wow this heli is big!

Mocked up the major sections of the heli to get a feel of the size. It's huge compared to my other ones :)

BOOM!

Finished the tail rotor assembly and mocked up the tail boom to figure out how everything goes together.
