FOR INTERCEPTOR 400 WITHOUT
THE ALIEN COMMAND AUTO PILOT FITTED
|
This is the top of the range
deal I offer, and this provides an excellent value for money
way to get into flying RC helicopters with the confidence
that you will almost certainly crash less, and therefore
have less to pay out for spares and repairs later on.
This helicopter is definitely one that you will not grow
out of, but will keep flying it long after you have learned how to
fly...

Why buy from a big dealer (Box shifter)
when you can
buy it from me and have
it built properly by a long standing builder and helicopter pilot such as myself
I
am a BMFA member, and offer full ongoing support to all
helicopter clients
Here is what one customer said recently:
Hi Ian
Just thought I would drop you a note to let you know
how delighted I am with the Int.400 you recently
supplied. I was very impressed with the build quality
and set up out of the box.. I flew it this afternoon
for 3 packs and drove home smiling! I had to turn down
the gain on the Alien by fully clockwise - 20% as it
was being affected by some tarmac at my fly site. My
tx is actually a DX7 (not a DX6) but I used the
settings you emailed to me all the same. I only had to
adjust the gain setting on the tx gyro.
Thanks again from a very satisfied customer.

A GYRO is not included with the
helicopter, because
some people prefer to select their own type of gyro such as
the Quark or Futaba 401 high level gyros.
I would suggest the following
item :
Acer Labs G1000 Heading Hold Gyro at £29 - but you may choose a
different gyro if you wish
NB: Without a gyro fitted, I will not be able to test fly this
helicopter.
I
can also supply a top of the range Futaba GY401 AVCS SMM
HH gyro for only £90. These usually sell for £120+
TOTAL COST for Interceptor 400 with Alien Command, with
the above G1000 gyro - £277.00
BUILD FEE - £40.00
TOTAL COST - Ready built, setup & flight tested
- £317

If
you want a better (painted fibreglass) canopy at only
£8.50
PLEASE
CLICK HERE and order separately |
If you want to use even
larger or more powerful Lipos, you can go
up to the RapidCharge 2200Mah 25C at
+£19.00 or even more powerful RapidCharge
2200MAh 35C at
+£26.00.
NB - Using these larger
RapidCharge lipo batteries means the
standard Interceptor canopy can NOT be
used, you will need to obtain a Trex 450
or CopterX style Canopy of your own
choosing (such as those shown above) to use either of these lipos.
Then the lipo can be mounted normally or under the main frame
at the front.
The helicopter will be fully & correctly built, & then
fully setup to ensure it will fly as best as possible. It will then be
test flown to ensure that it is responding correctly, the gyro is setup, & the pitch range
will be set to the optimal range for a learner pilot.
Your chosen radio system will be
preconfigured for you with model being your INT400, which will be
setup to make it as easy as possible to fly when learning. Other
types of helicopter setups can be provided on request.
PLUS PLUS PLUS
The Alien Command
standard version of the electronic Auto Pilot system
will be fitted and tested, so that once configured by me, (or you of course) will allow
you to simply let go of the cyclic stick when you get
confused, and as long as the helicopter has sufficient
height, it will automatically recover to a level hover to
let you recover and land safely and one piece.
Alien Command makes take of and
landings and hovering very much more simple, and even helps
a lot when landing in gusty wind conditions, which can
increase the number days that you will be able to fly here
in the UK.
The Alien Command system can of
course be adjusted to be more or less powerful in it's
responses, and it can be switched on or off using a spare
channel on your transmitter. That makes it ideal as you
progress in your flying skills, as you can fly with it
turned off, but quickly switch it on when trying new manoeuvres,
or when it all seems to be going wrong for some reason
(pilot error usually)
TOTAL COST
£317 + £15.00
shipping (Fully built & flight tested
with and without AC in use, No radio system)
£332.00
If you feel that you want any
special parts, such as an improved ESC or better tail gyro, or
indeed anything else, I can both supply and fit these parts
for you at no additional labour charge if specified when the
helicopter is ordered. Their original cost will
be deducted and the cost of the requested items added.
Doing so will NOT INVOLVE ANY
EXTRA CHARGE AT ALL other than the additional cost of the other parts
you want me to fit.
