Thanks....they can be, H-6's do make it more interesting since they are small to begin with.

Helicopters are much easier to work on in real life than to model (speaking from experience)... hats off to you Ryan for finishing one :)

Thanks Joe.

Are you sure about that, I would think being a spark chaser on a 46 or 53 is a pain to find where the short is in all that wire.

I'm positive! Not too hard to change out a bundle of wires or an entire engine for that matter - can have that done in a couple of hours!

Well that is definitely faster than my building speed.
