Yeah, Ubuntu for the first time in 6 years had a major issue with me. So I went to reboot and bam, not OS to load so to speak. I figured my raid 0 got hosed so I decided to destroy the old raids and rebuilt the raid. Now Ubuntu does not want to load the boot loader to the raid. Which is odd because not 3 weeks ago It did just fine. Now it time to see if windows will load on this raid. trying to see if I am having a hardware issue.

Thank you Lee, Gaba and "Tiny". It kinda feels like an TRex 450 pro. At least the main blocks anyways.
So far the build has been straight forward. There are some things you need to pay attention to. The first being the frame sides, the left side has two extra holes in it. The second is the screw lengths. There are three lengths; the shorter ones are used the most and are used in the non-elongated holes; the middle size are used in the elongated holes along with the supplied washers and the tail support ends; the longest are used in the landing skids.
After the frames were assembled I test fit the ESC under the battery (suggested location) and its a no go for me. In the video I point out my new location.
I also figured out the pinion deal while I was test fitting the main gear. It appears that the main gear does not have the one way bearing. The one way is located in the pinion, because of this I will have to use an msh pinions. So I will need to get a smaller pinion or set up the governor. I still need to check the motor shaft size. I have yet to get that far.
I hope tonight I can work on bag c and possibly bag d which is the head. I will also check the swash with a leveler prior to the assembly.
have fun and rc. To be continued!

Got the tail tube, tail servo and belt pulled through the tube. I then proceeded to pack up this morning then it came, crash bang boom. Lower frame and fly bar have been sent to sick call for dead man profiles and medically discharged. I will be posting pics and the video is DOA. I could not get the video to post process the way I wanted. So now its just a mid way video blog.
