IS it worth getting a carbon fiber bottle for the Airwolf?
They cost less than $200, save about a lb ,and can fill up to 250 BAR and are 480cc.

Last week I ordered an Airwolf from AOA who told me that they all come with a carbon fiber bottle now, and that pictures on the web site are out of date. Its a bit odd because Daystate's web site also has pictures with a metal bottle. I only found out when I asked about a bottle clamp to mount a bipod and was told that the bottle was now carbon fiber and that clamps were not available (probably not allowed in case you damage the bottle?). Needless to say a HeliBoard is on my wish list."bigben11"IS it worth getting a carbon fiber bottle for the Airwolf?

"Regal_US"This thread is fantastic. I understand why Daystate do not provide access to programming, because this could lead to violation of FAC regulations in UK, but for the rest of us, this board is the way to go.
Its great to see this installation being done in the video, but I'm puzzled about a few things.
1) It looks like the battery was not removed until 1:00 in the movie. Is this a mistake?
2) What are you supposed to do with the three single pin plugs that are 'hanging in the breeze' at about 5:30 in the movie. Should these be individually wrapped in insulating tape before putting the action back in the stock? I'd be concerned about a short if these accidentally contacted a component on the board. Where do these three wires come from? Were they connected to the daughter board?
3) Should the new board have insulation on the rear face like the original?
Thanks for sharing all this information. I'm almost certainly going to order a board.
