Hey everyone - just joined and thought I'd say "hi'. Hi.
I've got a stock old-style SC which is undergoing major mods while under reconstruction. I'm a new flyer, but was reliably making safe landings. I let my daughter take the stick too close to some trees, and after a quick turn, she nosed into full-throttle into the ground, breaking the fuse in half across the batt box.
So I'm in the middle of a complete batt box overhaul (replaced it with an Old Work box), upgrade to LiPo, Deans Ultra connectors, larger wheels front and back, new landing gear (the stock style doesn't fit in my new batt box), a paint job, and solid mountings for my Muvi to take aerial videos.
Everything except the paint will be done first. I'll post procedures and pics (and some video links) as I complete components.
Thanks for all the posts. I've learned a lot by reading on this forum, and hope to contribute to the body of knowledge.
