My helicopter fleet

Here we go. This is the group of helicopters that started my addiction to RC helicopters. My very first helicopter fleet from 2010. From left to right: E-sky Honeybee CPX, small fixed pitch. Don`t remember the brand, but it was my very first helicopter. Dynam E-Razor 450 Carbon Edition, Air Hogs co-axial from walgreens..lol, Don`t remember the brand of the last one. But it was a 27mHz fixed pitch, that flew like a lead balloon...LOL.

Hey there Geena. These birds, are they retired or do they come out to play every once in awhile?
 
Hi D.O.G. The only one of these that I still have, is the E-Razor 450. It is retired, and is now a shelf decoration that sits above my desk.
 
Hey guys. You all have seen my helicopter fleet, so now let me introduce you to my surface fleet. Back row from left to right: HPI Blitz short course truck, Team Associated Pro SC 4X4, Nitro Circus Basher SCT 4X4, HPI Blitz Short Course truck.

Front row from left to right: BSR Racing BZ-222 1/10 scale buggy, Turnigy GT 10X Pan Car, Turnigy Rally Car, Redcat Twister XB Pro Buggy.

Hahahaha. They are a blast to drive. I race the BZ222 sometimes, and the redcat is a basher. I also race the basher 4X4, and the Teak Associated truck. The rest are just for bashing and having fun. Check out what`s under the hood of the blue blitz. I had upgrade-idis when I got that one...hahaha.

LOL yeah, total waste of money, but hey....ya can`t take it with you. I don`t "upgrade" ANYTHING now, unless it absolutely makes the vehicle perform better.
 
Yup, I'm the same way. Just stock parts, and if they keep breaking, then I will go with something like RPM brand or something. But never any aluminum.
 
Hey guys. After we discussed tools and hardware kits in last night`s live stream, I thought I would post some photos mine. I`ll do a video soon on which basic tools you need for building/maintaining a helicopter, as well as some of the advanced tools that make things even easier fr us when working on our machines.

Had a fun time at the field today, and got in eight flights between the X3L, X7, and NX7. The last flight on the NX7 claimed the ring in the engine, and I had to finish the day with the electrics. After 6+ cases of fuel, it`s to be expected though. I would not have been able to sleep tonight, knowing that my favorite helicopter was wounded. So I did the right thing, and changed the engine. Within an hour, I had the old engine out, and the new engine in...set up, and ready to be broken in....which will happen tomorrow.

Yes it is. :D I`ll get hold of Richard from YS on Monday, and get the parts for the old engine. I`ll break the new one in tomorrow and have it tuned for power by the end of the day. :D
 
So....we`re at the field, and having a great time. When we see a deer walk out into the flying field, and start eating grass. Of course we didn`t fly until she was finished, and had moved on. But it was so cool to just and watch her.
