450 size Sikorsky H-34/S-58

[Darthdrk]

hey guys sorry I do not speak German I have to use babel fish translate. Hope you can understand english. Im trying to have this ready by the end of this week. It can use the raised tail from heliartist http://helidirect.com/heliartist-450-bo ... -17813.hdx
I also made a quick video of the prototype fuselage flying: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCPy6EHHiFA

I am using a FP motor driven tail in mine. It does fly really well and predictable.
I may later on do the Wessex version and I may also do the turbine version. It is a matter of making a couple separate nose sections. I will wait and see the type of demand.
So Far I have made 2nd fuselage and still working on some more details
I am now accepting a list of those who may be interested in one of these

Hallo,

es gibt eine Wessex (die S-58 mit Turbinenantrieb wie die "Screaming Mimi") mit 2m Rotordurchmesser von CAD Modelltechnik Jung: http://www.cad-modelltechnik-jung.de/pr ... wessex.htm

Ich hab mal angefangen eine S-58 zu konstruieren, mit 7-Zylinder-Seidel-Sternmotor und Vario-Rotorkopf... als ich mal die Kosten für das Projekt überschlagen habe, hab ich wieder aufgehört rumzuspinnen...

In English: there exists a Wessex (the turbine version of the S-58 like the "Screaming Mimi) from CAD Modelltechnik Jung: http://www.cad-modelltechnik-jung.de/pr ... wessex.htm

I startet to design a S-58 with Seidel 7 cylinder radial engine and Vario rotor head, but as I calculated the costs of all components I stopped the project...

But now I stop spamming darthdrk's nice H-34 450 size fuselage thread...

Gruß, Alex

Hi,

very nice!

The chassis looks like an E-Sky Belt CP...?

I´m glad to see another wonderful fuselage from you.

Keep on construction

But , since the 500-Class has become the allover Beginner Class , (cheaper Lipos, more stable flight than a 450 Class Heli) .
Did you decide making 500-Class Fuselages too ... ?

One of these days I do hope to start making bigger fuselages. Right now I have so much invested in the 450 size equipment. If and when I do go to making bigger fuselages, I will just about have to change out all the molding equipment I have and that will be an expense I cant afford right now. I will need to first invest in a good 500 size helicopter. I will have to get bigger molding tables and frames. Material costs will be a little more expensive . Right now I just dont have extra capital to invest.
