        Nope, went a little more and also cut the skids shorter and removed the anti-collision lights on the skids, I think I will call it good and call it a night, now go think about what I just did to it...

              Update, slowly getting the OH-6 ready for it's new paint job, I'm not a painter or prep person, took me hrs to do just this much, never again

              My buddy Gravy is going to do the honors of painting it for me, he is getting really good at it too as you can see from his Apache, which is mine now, it looks great in person, so while the OH-6 is gone to get a new paint job, I will be flying the Magnum PI which has been shelved for a bit as I'm enjoying the new 700 Apache, I think Mr. Magnum got a little jealous when the Apache arrived...

                            Thanks guys, yeah I like it way better than the white, a big Thanks to my buddy Mike (Gravy) who painted it for me, he filled in some holes and the tail boom seam and it looks so much better now, can't wait to fly it and hope to get some video.

                              This is the real one I was sort of trying to do, I wanted more of a flat green than the real one.

                                          Roban usually only does one manual per type of model- so the MD500 manual will work-
