This is what i have spend my saturday building. £12 from china (postage was £20 tho)



In true pistonheads style the helmet is there to show the scale, its pritty small, so small it fits in the back of a supermini with the back seats still up.

This is a picture of the space for all the electronics, not much space at all.



underside showing mini servos in place



Looks good, i have to fit the hinges, servo linkages, install all the electonics, motor and find a home for the battery. Should go pritty fast until i crash it.


I will post more as it develops.

are you going ducted fan or prop on it? I reckon a 40mm GWS fan with a Feigao brushless 12mm can motor on that will make it just the business

I have installed the motor that came with it, which is a bog standard one (pusher prop). I will be getting a brushless one if i desire more speed.

I will post more pics at the weekend
