    I just have to thank @Ivan_Mfor the excellent job on these instructions. I pass a couple of hours to check these instructions. I can tell you all that this guy made a way deeper work than it could seem at first look. I really hope for all those who will build it you will enjoy it as much as I does when designing it. Again thanks at Ivan.

    Cool mecha...the little thing that hurts me is the fact your joystick is not really articulated on one point... You have seen this already All helicopters on this contest have this concept based mechanism. A collective movement and an cyclic one @Aventador2004 will you push your concept to intagrate a flap control too? This make a trim effect on both flaps and ailerons...challenge!

    good work!

    I don't own such bb.... isn't it possible to use a simple pole reverser? it is available in set 8293... EDIT ; this pole reverser could be positioned deep inside your build of chassis and have a HOG somewhere?

    ok, understood! seems your main rotor mas need strong reinforcement, no? good job so far keep on this way!

    This train bb is or course a good solution. Couldn't you use it as front counterweight? This would leave the place for your gearbox but in another hand it will lock the possibility to use the front attachment. To solve this issue you could imagine also a front tool who incorporate this bb?

    looks good so far, btw

    for your gearbox, maybe this design may help: see at 4:20 steph.

    +1 with @Thirdwigg keep it simple. I would try to simplify the front end too. The DBG flex are not that useful IMO. good work for the next step

    Hello,! good looking bodywork for a wip project After having a (very) close look at your rotor setup I don't understand how the collective control works. I do see the cyclic commands, but don't understand the collective. Some detailed explanations? Steph.

    For the tail part i do not use panels usually wich is not a real problem. For the engine housing the curves and generics lines are more important visualy than a real reproduction of the complete surface. So i would probably work with flex axles who cover a fake or functional engine. This way you'll put some interest and Something 'to see' in the Inside and give a good justification for a 'light' design in this area. just IMHO

    I understand you so well, as my chinook give me the same feeling. The only thing i would correct in your last sentence is: by: it will be absolutely amasing
  13. steph77
    looks good. But for some reasons i think it's better to keep it white. I think that more people could have the parts in the good color this way, as not everyone own the Mack set. EDIT: BTW, where did you find those black shock absorbers?

    too sad, this was promising. You speek about difficulties on bodywork job? Maybe we can help? Steph.

    So now, there are two hunters in EB's sky Instruction are for free in my mind and way of thinking. So nothing for me. You could estimate your job needs a little fee though . great job you've done here! What is your honest opinion about it, now you've got it IRL? do you still have the 169 or do you need to take it in parts to build this one?
  16. steph77
    wait! Here in Belgium beer is a religion. So ok, it will be two of them ;)

    looks good. I would have make more stiffen support for the blades. As they are somehow articulated with swashplate, a 2 points support setup could be a good idea. with this extra support they would bend a little more:) for the global model: Way better proportions!

    great build, great design, great abilities what else?
  19. steph77
    hello, there is a difference between controlling: - more than 8 motors individually - controlling more than 8 functions based on a max of 8 motors With gear box you could imagine 1 motor for shifting 7 gearbox dispatching up to 14 functions. Look at 8043 setup, maybe it may help ;)
  20. steph77
    what about a black ops four blades version?
  21. steph77
    +1
  22. steph77
    Thanks guys! I just wonder how I can use this extra time now. I really hope now to see more helicopters in this competition.some design are very promising actually. Can not wait to see the final results. I also hope people will make ldd instructions too as I think it is the most interesting thing for other participants.

    Video. Sorry for my awful English, but it is not my birth language :)

    Yes, one other Hoover :) Some litle comments compared to your reference model: - The tail section seems fixed too high - the white panel job on the rear part does not exist on the reference model - i would lowered a bit the back fixation of the canopy in order to get a smooth curve Great idea BTW, good work next steps...

    finally model rev C is available and posted at mocpages with power shaft of tail rotor and flaps command.
