    Thanks D, happy to help. I swear finding parts is one of the most difficult parts of building scale helis. As for your breakdown, yes-ish. The blade count does slightly depend on the model of either.

    4 blade rotor/ 2 blade tail: OH-6A, B, J, TH-6B, AH/MH-6C

    5 blade rotor/ 2 blade tail: AH/MH-6E, F, G, H, J

    5 blade rotor/ 4 blade tail: Hughes 500P "The Quiet One" CIA version

    6 blade rotor/ 4 blade tail: MH/AH-6M, AH-6I

      Just finished up my rebuild. I had an old AH-6 450 that I bought complete years ago. It was on 3S which I don’t have anything else that uses this size of 3s. Also a couple years ago a guy at our field flew into it, while sitting in the pit, and smashed up the glass on the canopy. A buddy did a temp fix but it finally gave out.

      so I decided to change out the fuse with a new AH-6. Just finished it up. I hope to get it back in the air as soon as weather lets me.

      next is to repaint my 450 500E police to Fresno County Sheriff.

        Hi All,

        Just got this heli from Motion RC, along with a Microbeast Ultra, and running on a Futaba T6K-V3S 8-channel radio.
        Just getting back into helis, after a LOOONNNGGG hiatus (my last heli was a Kyosho Concept 30DX with a Hughes 500 fuse! Late 80's/early 90's ). Any thoughts on initial settings/setup for the Microbeast Ultra? Also, any idea what scale this AH-6 actually is?

        Thanks,

        The Gunny
