Status: offline 		Can you give us a review of this thing Liberty Cat?

It seems you might be the only one round these forums that owns a DF40...



With your simulator. Some people have said in the past that they could get their sim to work with their TX using windows 95 not windows XP

People if I said this wrong please correct me..

Thanks
Kriz

Status: offline 		do any of you guys know if this heli is walkera's answer to the blade cp? it sure looks the same.


EDIT: after looking again it is pretty close but the Walkera is using the larger diameter tail boom

Status: offline 		No, for the sim. i have a futaba 9chp super for my future raptor, with reflex you could not use the walkera remote. if i can get to flying the walkera good then i should not have a problem at getting the raptor 60v2 to hover and have control of it.

Status: offline 		Hi all,
Just upgraded 40# to brushless.
I had to make a modification as shown in the picture to get it to work. Head speed now means head speed!!!

Below is a picture sent to me by Walkera showing the modification I had to make, I did not use the BEC on the ESC to power the RX (tail motor too much current draw, it would fry the ESC), I wired the RX and ESC in parallel too the battery (y connection).

Status: offline 		Hello everyone, i have a few questions.

First on the remote what does the PLT knob do?

Second what does everyone have their two knobs set at (the PLT and PZT?)

Third, i have looked at other videos of other mini electrics and when there head speed is up and close to hove it looks like there are two blades turning slow, if you know what i am talking about, but i have recorded my heli. and it does not do that it is just one solid circle. Is my head spead not fast enouph?

If someone could help me please. Thanks

PZT and PLT know is for mix parameters...
the one on your left is changing gain of blade pitch change during the gas increasing .. the right one, changing the extreme position (more or less pitch)

for any Dragonfly spare parts, see http://libertycat.monsite.wanadoo.fr
