1/6 scale conversion to Radio Cntrol

Post by GAU-8 » Tue May 20, 2008 11:14 pm

wish there was a 1/6 forum here.. :(

ah well. i picked of flying R/C helis since christmas. i got bit bye the heli bug so i finally decided to do a hughes 500 by 21st century conversion.
i am not destroying a collectors item..i am making the collectors item FLYABLE :)

anyways this is going to be a slow process, since i really dont have much time away from work. 12 hour shifts plus weekends... I am going to give it about 4-6 months. well the heli came in today. so here are a few pics of it in unassembled form from the original box. amd a pic compared to my current helicopter. after this goes well, i wil convert my 1/18 apache to flyable, and my blackhawk as well.
