I was also able to grab a Futaba S3154 digital micro servo and got it all lined up this week. I should have it all tuned some time tomorrow.

Some flying shots with the new fully digital tail setup








Mad Piro rates with the CSM 420e and the Futaba S3154 digital servo. I'm considering increasing the servo arm length to make them even crazier

Tonight I swapped out the MaxPro CF Blades for the set of Vic Campbell's V2Blades I'd bought for my Dragonus originally. There's nothing wrong with the MaxPros... I just want to start using my premier blades





Also, as part of my continuing effort to increase the piro rate of my tail, I extended the ball on my servo link one hole to assure full travel with the CSM gyro. What little hovering/testing I did tonight promises completely insane piro rates.



I also have a Medusa 28-32-3400 on order that I hope to have installed in the next couple days.

Status: offline 		Outstanding build documentation, the pictures are excellent quality! Thanks for taking the time to document it, I have done similar photo documentation for other hobbies and know how time consuming it is. The song in the flight video is good too, I bought it from itunes, just don't listen to it on Prozac.

There are many Futaba, Jr, and other TX/RX options out there and most will work fine. What is your budget and do you have any previous experience in electrical set up?

I would look closely at Shell's photos as they are very good. Between those and the paperwork that comes with most ESC's, receiver's and other radio gear, you should be fine and enhance your heli education at the same time.

Regards,
Scott

Status: offline 		The photographs are very helpful but I would very much appreciate if you could provide me with more detailed information regarding
the connection (electrical components) from the battery to the motor, the servos, the receiver and to the Electronic Speed Controller.
In fact - the wiring system.

Thanking you in advance
regards
charles
