Tail boom is CF and extended and tail rotor is raised to same level as main rotor. -

Completed tail boom mod. Longer tail gives more control authority with less effort by the tail motor. It also reduces the right tilt by having the 2 rotors at the same level. -

Old pic with 3 mods shown. 1) Velcro battery strap mod. 2) Front light relocation mod. 3) Battery alarm mod. 4) Not shown is the NEW BL Main Motor which sits higher and is less visible. It does not interfere with wiring as does the old brushed motor. -

This is an old picture. The Aluminum PCB heat sink mod on main motor FET is no longer there since the NEW BL PCB does not have the main motor run from the PCB now. The regulated 5.5 volt FET is still there.

FX052 tail motor and assembly fits a 12mm boom on the FX052. So it needs to be shimmed to fit the V913 10mm boom. A tie wrap is used to clean up the excess wire. -

This shows the 3 diodes protecting the FX052 tail motor on Bird 1. They are hanging out there unprotected. Some thread holds one to the vertical stab. The batt I've used the most is this 1100mAh 40C 11.1V 3S. It gets hot as do the motors! -

This is the tail of Bird 1. The diodes were installed up front. The tail is 10mm CF tube with a section raised to be level with the main rotor. -

After installing diodes near the tail on Bird 2, I decided installing diodes up front would be safer and look better. This is Bird 1 with 3 diodes to the tail wires. It has a Xtreme 380X BB main motor.
