From Blade 230s to a Hughes 300

thingiverse

There are some Scale kits for the Blade 230s, which are very expensive but also extensive. But there are also simpler kits that are affordable. This is where the 3D printing comes in. Most parts can be made of PLA. Unfortunately I only have the ENDER 2 with a small bed, so I had to separate the skids. The stressed parts like struts for the rear boom are made of 2mm carbon fiber and the tail rotor protection is made of 2mm steel wire. - Compromises have to be made everywhere ;-) - I'm going to fly heli now....
