Default Testing image post

Just a test:
Ok, since it was not ignored and has since been exposed. I'll let everyone know for their curiosity this an attempt to build a machine to fit into a trailer I have. While I was well accepted and watched over at my tower controlled airport I wanted a smaller machine. While the Mini-500 was a flawless performer and a pure joy to fly I wanted something I could keep at home so the quest for the "Jimi-250" began. It only needs the primer lines connected and six holes indexed in the new clutch support bearing plate to ready for trials. As all machines I am sure more mods will have to be made as problems become evident. Its obvious that all the rotating componets are from my former Mini-500 and all of the controls are modified accordingly. My area is not really helicopter enthusiast dense so not much inspiration for me here. Every once in a while I get a burst of enthusaim though so maybe it will fly this year. Its too heavy for ultralight 360 emty so may never fly. I am not going to renew my medical again



And here is the trailer

BINGO on the first try, Jim.

That is one nice lookin' machine Jim. How many hours on it, if you don't mind my asking?!

I really like your moniker, Good show.

You can post pics now; now let's see some more.


Cheers

Easy. I'm not open to the public. Almost everything I do is on a confidential bases between me and the customer. Anything I do is not advertised.

Hello Brent, on the KB3/BENSON/Whatever else Gyro. Carl is concern for my safety with that KB3 tail. I told him I would switch it out for the Domanators tall tail. He's right, I like the looks of the tall tail better anyway although i've been ok with the other rudder................Dick
