The "Scout" FPV Y-6 Helicopter

[aForcefulThrust]

My F450/Y-6 conversion FPV project. 1W 2.4 vTx and dragonlink UHF. Hopefully I'll be able to fly anywhere, limited only by my battery life (9 min). I KNOW... the vTx and GPS are so close, but I don't know how else to fit everything. I was pretty unsure how to route my dragonlink rx antenna too, but this is what I came up with. It's right where the battery goes.. Haven't test flown yet, it's been raining all day. What do you guys think?

cool, what radio are you using with dragonlink?

 

[aForcefulThrust]

Turnigy 9XR. the dragonlink hooked up to it so easily, and it just fits on the back like it belongs there I really like this radio better then my DX7s so far. I'll probably have a DX7s for sale soon.
