In addition to the 3D Pro version of this helicopter I have built a Hornet version using the same principal.

The same basic design is followed except that the frames are slightly smaller as is the tail which uses the stock length tailbelt.

I have used a Hacker B20-22S motor, CSM LW200 Gyro, Hitec HS55 Servos for cyclic and a Hitec HS56 HB for the tail. A Pheonix 35A ESC drives the motor and control is by the usual Century 6CH receiver supplied with power via a Medusa 2A BEC.

I used an Easton XX7 SuperSlam arrow shaft for the tail and decided to paint the canopy a matching Camouflage scheme

The helicopter flies really well with stunning performance from the Hacker motor.
