Here is the modified ball joint,housing a precision bearing

To make the tail blade push rod,i had to modify a ball joint linkage rod...
My aim here was to convert one end of the ball joint into a bearing holder..
I started by enlargening the hole with a round file.

The tail drive are bevel gears

You would wonder why the aluminium railing??
Yeah... It is actually there,to connect the bearing holder to the tail boom.

Next was the inclusion of the bearing bearing holder.. This was made by cutting in half,a Trex 450 flybar seesaw holder,and turning one half 180 degrees,to still face the other half.

First,i started with cutting an aluminium rail,used to hang curtains at home. Then i bent it to shape,and drill the required holes,as worked out by me

I needed a variable pitch tail rotor. But i hadn't the main parts. I decided to apply a system i call; combination... In this method,i try and combine different parts from different sources,so as to achieve my aim

@toms55,

I am not studying agriculture. I am studying mathematic.

Am almost through with the heli.

More to come

I have started building the heli right away!

And finally the Whole things that was donated.

And these chargers. The blue one is a universal programmable charger. And the black one is a lipo charger.

And these blades.

And these brushless motors.

And these swashplates as well.

And these gears as well.

These ESC(Electronic speed controller),were also sent.

This Bell-Hiller head was also sent. It belonged to a 450 class.

These lipo battery were also sent.

These gyros were also sent. All are AVCS(Angular vector control system)

These Servos aswell was also sen. Both Digital and analog

The picture below are Rx and Flyberless system control.

Below is the Futaba computer Radio they sent

sykay: @parkings..congrats bruh just bumped into this thread and I'm so impressed this is actually a bold step..neighbour..c67

@ Sykay
Do you reside in Ehimiri housing estate?

I just recieved a load of donation from RCHA in Britain.
They sent me:Tx,Rxs,gyros,ESs,Flyberless control system,Batter chargers,Brushless motors,Servos(digital and analog),Blades,screws and nuts,Ball link joints,Align bell-hiller rotorhead,Shafts,Bearings,lipoly batteries,e.g.
The pix below is the carton that contains the accesories. They sent it through DHL.

[quote author=swtchicgurl][/quote]Am througi with the project.... Just waiting for a transmitter and receiver some one donated to arrive. Then i'll fire up the helicopter,and post the videos.

If you feel like looking up the technical details. You can click here: www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2008350
The documentation there is more up to date than the documentation here. With more step by step pictures of the helicopter construction. And also some links to some youtube videos,featuring the explanation of most critical components.

The picture below is my own verson of swashplate.

Below is a Tx(Dx6i).
NOTE!!! : the two joystick!

Below is a slower animation of the swashplate moving up and down,changing the pitch of the blades!
