Hi all,
Ecureuil pilots and lovers...

My Mentor Helicopters Instructor as made a Maiden flight with the Ecureuil AS355N from the TT products compagny.

Hes as done a wonderfull job making on this Helicopter and he is shure happy of the result on her...

Congrats Buddy,
Your a Ecureuil Pilot owner now !!!

Here what he had to say to us:

Ok Guys I could not resist, the hover was too nice so I did 6 small circuits,, It flew like magic , I was alone so the picturs and videos are automatique.

I will work on the videos tonight after work , but for now just a couple shots from a low hover ,sorry its not very clear and the weather was soso.

Also couple shot of the happy Ecureuil pilot after the flight. Flight weight 10lbs and perfectly balance with no extra weight in the nose.

This made my day so I will be in a real good mood at work.

Video is up on youtube, not the best quality but I dont have a good video camera for that.
I hope to have better videos on saturday if I fly in Lachute.

Well today was the very first flight of my Thunder Tiger Ecureuil AS355N with the Align T-Rex 600E.

Powered by an Evo 6S1P 4900 mah LiPo. The flying weight is 10 lbs and it handles very well, I still have to fine tune the curves for this flying weight but it wont need much.

This video was done on trypod since I was alone so I had to do some editing to shorten the video. The weather was sky overcast ,temp 1'c ,wind moderate breeze.

I added a lot of items to it all made with stuff found at home mostly. I will keep adding to it in time like a pilot at least. I have all lights fonctional too.

A real great flying bird.
