RC-Hangout

Well here it is (See attachments)
Unfortunately i didn't ending up taking as many photos as i would have liked during the building of the airframe as I ended up building things quickly with the little time I had available. The airframe is about 90% done. Just have a couple of little things still to sort out but all in all coming along nicely. Now just need to establish and order all the electronics for it and she will be ready for a maiden flight. This will hopefully occur before the end of the year haha.

Already have an esc for it. Yes I am going to be using another hobbyking esc on this build as well, why? because I can and i got it on sale for $200 . It is the Rotorstar 180Amp HV. I have heard pretty good things about it from a lot of different individuals besides my other helis all run hobbyking esc and has had zero issues with them. For the servos I'll prob end up running the same setup as on my two bladed goblin which is BK-8001 on the cyclic and Bk 7005 on the tail. The flight controller will most likely end up being the iKon since I have on my two other helis and like it a lot. As for the motor it will most likely end up being the scorpion 520kv since it has more than enough power for my style of flying and I have seen other who use this motor in the KSE goblin with great results.

Nice! I'm try'n to finish up my build as well.. $$$$ lol, Looks good!

That's pretty sweet, Damon!! Looks great! I like your flooring, too.

Thank you. Yeah this machine is very expensive but hopefully well worth it in the end.

Haha thank you x2

Well so after flying my two helis today and watching a couple of kyle stacy flight videos I have reconsidered which servo I will be using on the cyclic. I will now instead be using the Bk 7002 servo:


Here is the Kyle Stacy flight video with Bert Kammerer introducing the new servo:

Nice Heli mate.
Love the BK servos on my Goblin.
No better bang for you buck in my opinion.

Thank you and again congrats ! Now you have two KSE machines to have fun with running completely different setups.

Thank you hahaha that thought initially crossed my mind but decided that I would just save up over a couple of months.

And a parcel has arrived yay. Slowly getting closer to finishing the build. Now just need to solder on the new ESC bullets that came with the motor.

Nice!

Sweet:)

Awesome bruh! What ESc is that?

Motor install done!

Awesome... Get'n close!

Big ass cooling mount. Might have trouble mounting those servos now, though.

haha yeah I noticed that, although shouldn't be too much of a headache; 3 out of the 4 screws I can get in with out any issues. The bottom right screw I will have to use a very short allen key wrench which I am pretty sure I have. Worst outcome is I have to remove the motor mount again haha which isn't too bad either.

I have ball end hex drivers I use on that one.
