Has anyone used this KDE main gear on a T-rex 450? [ATTACH]
I have noticed a difference in flying the 450 with a light to moderate wind.... it's more stable. The same wind would have my micros drifting...
Don't forget @smakmeharder, pushing the limits of G380 reliability with your 300+ flights on one belt! That was impressive.
Uniball.... Whew! I was hoping it wasn't an anatomical condition! (similar to unibrow) :rolleyes:
Wind is something I'm going to have to learn to deal with up here. If I don't, I loose 75% of my outdoor fly time. It's the unexpected gusts that...
Yes, you are right. I have a switch set up for either full-on or full-off..... no throttle on the collective (using a DX4e with modded switches,...
Parts will be arriving throughout the week. I'll have it back up soon. I'm also learning the finer points of parts compatibility. I almost have...
That's one of the drawbacks to those small engines: they are so lightweight for the sake of power to weight ratio, that there is not enough mass...
You kept your word...... evidently. :p Nothing demonstrates the kinetic energy in a 450 main rotor better than seeing both main blades impaled...
Nailed it! Zero tail wag, rotor balanced, all the important screws secured (again)...... Just finished a flight with no mechanical annoyances...
I also found that tightening the main feathering spindle screws put too much compression on the dampeners, so I removed two thin shims at the...
Actually, I did manage to get too much Loctite on the link pin screws. It was bound up worse than before when the Loctite set up in the bushings,...
I found part of the little problem with the slight tail oscillation. Seems the linkage at the tail grips was binding ever so slightly, just enough...
Ah, yes...... what better way to start the year but with a freshly built 450! :D:D Cheers!
Happy New Year! (Those of you who are already there)
:eek:
Lol. Knock back a few beers and try that!
:p
Ha! I saw a news clip of someone flying one of those at a political function a few years ago! It was funny watching the security guys trying to...
Along with multiple packs, I will definitely have to invest in a better charger! While the 800mA charger I'm using may be easier on the packs, its...
