-=Gws Mini dragonfly=-

futaba 4ch t4vf radio
gws 6ch naro Rx
gws mixer/esc
gws pg03 gyro
stock everything.
2x 750ma batt backs (approx 6 minutes)
gws em150 stock motor(270 sized can)

I modified my tail rotor with a mod'd cox 7" LH prop. Used fuel tubing instead of meta colar to replace the "black" silicon tube on mainshaft. modified outer control plate(increased strength of ball link).

still experimenting... :-)
