Another of Jack's scale heli projects. This time, Jack takes a Century Falcon SE 50 Nitro heli and converts it to a 5 bladed Hughes 500MD (Army) heli with electric power.

In Part One we see Jack perform the work required to convert the 3D Nitro flybar heli and give it a 5 blade head and electric power.

Part Two will show the converted heli with its new fuselage and the maiden.

  • Hi Bob

    Great video and thumbs up from me man..Tim

  • @TinkerManRC Thanks very much for the kind comment Tim, much appreciated. Cheers!

  • Another brilliant edited video Bob Can't wait to see the second part Jacks turning into a pretty brilliant RC heli engineer also isn't he :) I hope you can video my spitfire and see what ypu can do with the video :)

  • @TheKenwiesner Thanks very much Ken, and yes, Jack's got game! Blew me away that he converted the heli to flybarless with a home made head. I'd be happy to do something with your Spitty. All we need is a break from the frickin rain! Cheers.

  • What a great project, sorry to see that setback during flight testing, the scale body will top it off nicely. Nice job with the camera as always!

  • @RxRobbo Thanks Robbo! It was just a flesh wound and she'll be back in the air in no time. Like you, I'm looking forward to seeing her with the new fuse. Thanks as always for taking the time to comment.

see all
