450 Here's Some Pictures

[James M. Lewis]

Hi guys,
Here's some pictures of my 450. The fuselage will have the main frame I upgraded. And here's the Gartt 450 Pro with two different canopies.

That fuse looks really good!

Thanks Tony,

Carey helped me with my helicopter icon and showed me how to download the pictures. Replaced all cheap parts with quality ones for my Augusta A109. Wish I had the money to buy an Align Trex in the first place but learned a lot by going this path. And have a greater appreciation for the hobby. Hope to have her maiden flight soon. Have all of you to thank for making this possible.

Best regards,

Jim

Pretty neat and different fuselage Jim. I'm liking it. Mine is the basic Red/White/ Black Coast Guard colors. Video of the Augusta in flight please .

Hi D.O.G.,

The original fuselage came in yellow and not sure why I added green and black paint. And drew a pattern on paper first then modified it as I went along. Didn't realize it that these are the colors of Jamaica, so I decided to name her "Cool Runnings" after the Jamaican bob sled team. When install with main frame have a new pair of Tarot 325mm pure black carbon fiber blades. SWEET, can't wait to put them on (still in plastic wrapping not yet open). Will ask my son in law Carey, who's also a RC helicopter pilot to take pictures with his drone on her maiden flight. Also plan to scratch build a complete cockpit (seats, center console and instrument panel) out of cardboard. Have a scale pilot to fly right seat.

Best regards,

Jim

P.S. Hope you and family were safe when Michael hit Florida.
