Here is mine - Raptor 60 w/OS 70. I have had it for a while, but just started trying to huck it late this season. I know inverted hovering is not that much - but it feels really cool the first time you get it right off the deck!!!!!!

Here's my T-Rex 600 Electric. Just finished painting this canopy and got the clear on this morning. Turned out pretty well, I think.

OK,

This is not mine and I had nothing to do with building it but this is my next Rotary wing project.

Daniel (the owner builder) based this on a TREX 600E chassis. Funkey 500E body unpainted yet. 600Xl align electronics, Flightpower pack, Helimixer and three Logitec gyros. Not sure what servos etc as I have not had my head inside it. Head is Century but highly modified.

This thing has to be the most scale looking, sounding heli I have had the pleasure of watching fly. It sounds like a turbine, looks like a turbine and flies extremely stable. No it does not and will never ever 3D as its built for scale looks and flying.

This one just lit my heli bug fire something awful.
