@JollySwagman2006 I have it mostly together now. still waiting on my servos and a couple of minor parts. Which should all be here by 1/6/12. It won`t be long now :)
@zimmy1958 LOL.. yeah, it is pretty big. A little bigger than I really expected to go for my first nitro helicopter. But... I could not pass up the price, so I took it home with me. I`m waiting for the clutch and cyclic servos to get here, and once they do....I can finish putting it together. I can`t wait to get it built tuned, and flying :)
hey geena well done bet you cant wait to get that bird in the sky . the g5 blades are just the best had a fly on my fb trex 600 n beast x last week so much better than the align 3g blades felt like i different heli .had my align starter about 1 1/2 years now and you can not kill them again well done all the best for the new year and safe flying
@michaeljheli Thank you:) Istill have a few things to get for it before it will be ready to fly, but I`ll order those today. I have been flying Edge blades, but I decided to see what all the hype about the G5s is all about. I have to say, they are huge blades. I hope they fly as good as they look.
Awesome Geena! I too can't wait to see that monster heli hit the skies with those huge blades! Your are going to get soe nice blade slap from this heli... watched my buddy's century Radikal today and it reminded me of how big this size heli is (might even be a bit smaller than your N5). Btw... I got my temp. AMA card last night!! I can now fly with you whenever we meet! The temp. card is good for a month until I get the actual card. Keep up the great flying!
@stot2614 I can`t wait either. It`s going to be a way new experience for me, no doubt...since I have flown only electric powered machines up til now. I`m glad you got your AMA membership. Now it`s official. We can fly together at the 2012 OHB That would be a good place to let this N5 off the chain a little.. LOL
@96sunvalley I sure hope so. Everyone is saying how good of a helicopter it is, so I`m anxious to find out how good she is. It`s a little intimidating, being my first nitro helicopter, but I`m sure I`ll get over that very quickly.:)
Holly cow gal, your moving up to the big dog. Awesome, LOVE those Nitro Helis, you are going to love that thing, Can't wait to see it in the air. Hope you had a Merry Christmas. Happy Flyin To Ya. P. S. We were crazy enough to go fly in the rain today, man was it cold
@Luvtoflyhelis I knew I was going to get a nitro bird eventually, just not this soon..lol. I`m having fun with the build, and I will keep the update videos coming. flying in the rain, huh? how did that go?
@Geena2112 It was wet and cold, was lite rain for about two hours and then the temp droped to about 35 and started raining hard so we had to give it up at that piont, I think we got in 5 or 6 flights between the two of us, it was fun while it lasted. I just got one of those insulated radio mitt's, man those things work great, keeps your hands warm and your radio dry. Happy Flyin To Ya Gal, can't wait to see you fly that nitro heli, your gonna love it, the big ones are so smooth
@Crazylogie Thank you:) I thought it was time to stop looking at it on the shelf in my hanger, and start moving it in the direction of flight. Stay tuned for more build updates about this awesome bird:)
Looking great there Geena, looking forward to seeing it all together soon, All the best for the New Year

also 105 mm is too much for that heli anything above 96 will snap the tail shaft to the grips
