    Hey guys,

    As you have probably heard, ArkRC got the 1st shipment of the new 766 in this week.
    Young Brent laid down his hard earned to purchase one, however he doesn't have time to build it!
    So I have reluctantly agreed to build it for him, which I'm pretty excited about because I love the 'build' as much as the 'fly'!

    I'll throw up some pics along the way for you, but it won't be a build thread or anything.

    @Manyc is in the process of building one also, so feel free to add your 2 bobs mate.

    Current progress:

      Gee @hardsy your building it very quick! - considering your doing it part time. How long do you think it has taken you so far? Whats bad about it so far? (apart from the fact its not yours).

      Boy oh boy it really is a unique looking helicopter... Tell me, are the skids meant to be facing forward or did you decide to put them on that way?

      I would have put them on backwards
      That's just me

      The great @5fiddy started this trend. He would ALLWAYS put his skids on backwards - cause that's how they were really meant to be!

      Those are backwards? Looks normal to me.... but then "normal" can be open to interpretation. ;)

      Backwards is so the risers slope backwards instead of forwards, it looks cool and fast - it also moves the skid pipes back an inch as well
