Hirobo EVO .50 build & fly.
Well, for all you heli hater's out there, want to see what $440 dollars get's you? Here ya go. I'll do a build (ooops, assembly) thread on this toaster/mixer. One thing for sure, it's a little less exciting when opening the box on a heli as compared to a new ARF plane.

Re: Hirobo EVO .50 build & fly.
You will love the heli, best flying .50 out there. Do yourself a favor and upgrade the plastic radius block and slide block to the following:

Re: Hirobo EVO .50 build & fly.
I'll say this, the instructions are vague at best.

Re: Hirobo EVO .50 build & fly.
They have you put the motor in after the frame and skids are on? Looks great so far. Just one other question, did the screws feel real tight when you threaded them in?
I feel you on the whole vague instructions deal haha, definately not like airplane manuals. |

Re: Hirobo EVO .50 build & fly.
Thanks. It was pretty straight forward and is framed up ( is that even a correct term for heli's?). Just gotta throw the radio equipment in.
