Note: The O-rings attachment of the skids to the struts provide, not only a fastener that allows easy install and  removal of skids, but also a natural grip for slippery floors. No worry about landing sideways on the skids as the way this is shown and done still provides positive landing support. Look carefully to make sure that the skids rest parallel with the strut "t" end strut support when fastening them with the O-rings.

No disassembly of the E-fLite Blade mSR tail is required, only the stock LG. The whole mSR heli frame and boom fits inside the fuselage through the front end and top of the scale body, with the window removed, and the window gets attached as the final step. It is very simple.
 
The battery is simply resting in the nose of the cabin and held there with a rubber band, slung between the front 2 LG struts. This balances with the tail section and brings the CG directly under the rotor mast. This also allows ease of removal and re-connection to the battery connector which is fed around the front of the electronic control board and under the front opening of the body.  Look Closely at Step 6 photo and you can see the rubber band in place for this purpose.

Note: Earlier MIA D500E body kits for the mSR were supplied with slightly longer LG support plate, and can be trimmed at the rear (Optional) about 1/8 inch, for better aesthetics.
 
Current MIA MD500E Kits come with shorter LG support plates that also have mounting holes to allow the scale body LG assembly to be attached, as well,  to the Walkera CB100 helicopter. Keep in mind that the MIA MD500E bodies come trimmed slightly different, depending on the helicopter you ordered it for.
