Neilzy Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Fed up with my frame twisting & bending I decided to modify it and give it a nice paint job as well, just picked it up from the painters just got to replace the netting and test fly it.

custom-vince Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Looks a good job. You know I could have powder coated that for ya. Got a nice black with rainbow metallic flake. Or carbon hydrographic dip Like the yellow, it's different. Why was it twisting and bending? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neilzy Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 Cheers Vince yeah liking the Yellow and didn't think of ya completely forgot you did powder coating Doh!!! It's light ally chassis and I found over time the engine would bend in the mounts so I put some Stainless plates which stopped it but then the main frame would bend over time and when I dropped it hard on a bad take off had a prop strike and so decided to strengthen it altogether looks good tho don't it !!!

Neilzy Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013 Just ordered dark Blue with a Yellow flake Dyneema for the cage should look well fancy lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
custom-vince Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I had a fly products solo with a massive 37kg thrust, that also used to bend the engine mounts. I bent them back and added a tuned exhaust and enlarged head to unleash the full 42kg thrust. It didn't help the poor engine mounts. Blue with yellow flake dyneema, that sounds interesting. Pimp my ride ppg style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
