dragus359

My Feedback: (1)

I own an Axe 400 RTF and I would recommend it to anyone thinking of trying it. Its a smooth flying heli and it come set up pretty much perfectly. The only thing one might want to really be aware of when flying it for the first time is that the tracking might be slightly off and the exp on the radio needs adjustment - because the factory setup is pretty sluggish. Finally - this may just be cuz I'm a tard or something, but my only major issue with the axe is that my left piro rate speeds up more than my nose right piro rate. Might be a gyro/temperature thing, and it may also be that I just don't have the dual rates set right. The Axe is a plastic heli but the manual seems to imply that cnc parts will eventually be put into production (if that matters to anyone). Anyway, I have a few vids of the Axe on my youtube channel; check them out if you're curious. I think my signature has a link to my channel but if it doesn't just search my name "dragus359" on youtube.

Save this llink to your bookmarks http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...=HMXE0210&P=PU... All the marjor crash parts continue to be in stock... Replace the screws as you need them with another source. (RC Screws or RTL Fasteners)

Thanks guys i have the tower hobbies link, first thing i did was source parts for it. i hoped i didnt get taken but everything looks good and have already got another full bird on the way.
not bad to get three helis for less than a 160 bucks. two mx 450's and a dragonus 2 no electronics though, already getting them flight ready. now i just have to learn how to fly, but i know
it will be fun and discouraging, both at the same time, to learn. Ill just have to stick with it.

Both attributes are useful in RC, and especially with helis .

Tower still has parts for the MX450. I have one and it flies well, but I did replace the tail with Trex parts and the swash with the Beam part. The tail and swash were very sloppy, that's why they were replaced. Also, a lot of Trex parts will fit this heli.

let me start off by saying that I am very much a amateur when it comes to helicopters. I bought a blade cx at a garage sale this summer and got hooked, this guy at work gave me this heli-max450, It has the body all the parts, except the electrical, no servos,battery,motor... It also has a align tail on it.

My question is, should I spend the money to get this to fly or not? If I should does anyone have any parts they would like to sell that would work on this. I am starting to read about this helicopter to get familiar, it sure has some great mechanical parts so even if I don't get it flying I will put it on the shelf for a display.

Any help would be appreciated

thanks

Has anyone here ever bought anything from the Li Chann ARK Taiwan website? Was just wondering if they were trustworthy?
