Not posted any progress on Lynx in a while but I've done a hufe amount of work on it the past couple of days. Everything is mounted bar the armour and drive set up ( still waiting on my Chinese gearmotors) and i've even found the cojones to do a full speed spin test. The ticking noise is the blade scraping the motor pulley slightly, it only does it sometimes but it's something I'm going to address, a thrust bearing between the body and blade should remove any up and down movement without hindering the spin up.
