After all the headaches i've had for a week I finally got the tail to sit under control (no unwanted yaw) using a (GWS 8.4 volt batt., ics50,ics100,pg-03,r6n2/h reciever) and 2 hs-55's it is EXTREME !! Oh, and controlling it all with a futaba 6exa !! This is my first electric heli (hummingbird V3) great first electric heli ! I have made my own trainer gear for it using 2'' styrafoam balls from a local craft store (hobbylobby) then two 18'' pieces of 3/16 wooden dowel and finally a lid from a camera film case . The little round case for 35mm film. All I did was cut four little noches in the under side at an angle so one piece would snap in as a whole and the other piece cut in half and snapped both halfs in then just a little epoxy (15min.) $2.75 later perfect trainer! And a little patience pays off!!

Don't get me wrong it does like to dance a bit but I lead. It'll keep a stable hover for about 2-3 sec. but my wife still won't let me land it in her hand. Just trying to make it seem useful to her, I told her it was an indoor blower (It'll blow the dust right off the top shelf) but I still can't turn the living room into an indoor airport! Back to the problem, I did all my mixing through my tx. I have my prog. mix at -100, my gyro 1/8 + from 0, epa on thr. at 80% and epa on rud. at 63%. The only thing's I adjust now are d/r for outside and inside. I don't know much about the humming board except that when one part fails it becomes spare parts (plugs & wires). Thats why I went with seperate setup. But other than that the only things I did different were cutting the tabs off the servos, diy battery holder (works great) when I get my driver for my camera working again i'll post pictures. and I fly with no canopy. Oh yeah and one big headache from trimming!! What type of tx. are you flying with?

Landing the heli on your wife hand will be a BIG mistake and very very dangerouse. Plese don't do it. When I check the blade tracking up close, I even have to wear the eye protection goggles.

the rotor doesn't spin high enough to injure you dude...

brian5

my HB spins fast enough to cut skin.

dont slice and dice your wife. lol

I can see if you have a Brushless system or a CP hummingbird but the most I got was a little purple patch from my non-brushless FP Hummingbird. It could really hurt your face if you fly to close Though...lol my tx arial saved my face one time back when I was learning nose in flying...the angle the heli was comeing at me would have smacked me dead in the nose. Thats the only place I could see it hurting a bunch.

anyhoo, have fun with your heli, the message board will always be here when you need help

My Dragon fly has these on it [link=http://www.deeteeenterprises.com/NS.Like90.FP.MainBlades.php]http://www.deeteeenterprises.com/NS.Like90.FP.MainBlades.php[/link]
and it spins up to about 2 times faster, i havnt tested it yet but im betting it will cut you wide open and give you some mad splinters

It was a just a joke, the only nutty thing I do with it is fly in more than a breeze. (OVER MY NIEHBORS YARD!)
