Work has continued on the
mechanics for the AirWolf, as the plan is to build it
as a standard Pod & Boom (P&B) first off, then test
fly it ensure it is set up correctly, and then strip of the
tail stuff, and the skids of course, so we can start to fit
it into the fuselage itself.
Here are a few images of the
Interceptor 400 mechanics with the electronics now mounted
where they need to be to fit it into the fuselage. Note that
the AR6200 Rx is mounted right up top at the front so that
we will have easy access to it once in the fuselage. I
am not sure yet whether the gyro will be able to stay on top
behind the mainmast until I try to fit it all in.

Here we have a side
view including the good old Spektrum DX6i Radio Tx.

And finally some
detail of the mechanics and electronics installation
from the other side.

Just in case you are wondering what
the luggage label is doing tied to the strut, don't worry, I don't
send them back to you just like that with a tie on label  I always label each and
every helicopter that comes into my hanger with the owners details,
what work is required, what radio is in use etc etc, to ensure that
they cannot get mixed up, which is easy to do when I quite typically
have 4 or 5 client machines in the hanger at any one time.
Once the mechanics go into the
fuselage, the battery tray at the front will almost certainly be
removed as well to allow us maximum room ahead of the frame to mount
the RapidCharge 2200 35C lipos I plan to use in this aircraft, so we
have lots of power to supply the Align 430XL motor that will be
fitted once it arrives.
I plan to mount the two Alien Command
electronics modules today, but of course I cannot mount the sensor
on the horizontal tail surface as a permanent fixture as it will be
under the belly when it's all in the fuselage.
