i'm going to the park tommorrow morning bright and early. from 7-8 am there is almost no wind. I will film it and post it. i'm not going to do anything fancy. probably just hover for a few packs to get the new feel. this bird is not stock any more and now have a dx6. when i went to the store to pick it up i asked mike jr about possible motor that works with this bird. he said JustGoFly 450 impressed him alot. its not cheap either. its not even listed on the web. but he has them in his store. i saw it. very nice.[:D][:D] gonna hook it up with JGF450 and Castle creations phoenix 35a esc. This upgrade would no doubt can compete with the trex.

...I still don't get why you would have someone else do the work. That is more than half the fun! Are you going to take it to him every time you bust something? I like to know how my Heli works/goes together/comes apart....Hmmm? Z

planepounder -> RE: just picked up my upgraded heli from ka-planes (4/29/2008 12:37:26 PM)
Whats wrong with the Align BL-35G?

noobflyer01 -> RE: just picked up my upgraded heli from ka-planes (4/29/2008 3:08:57 PM)
Z....the main reason i send it to kaplanes was the dx6. it would of just taken me to long to figure the setup for the bh450. but due to overwhelming responses saying i should've repaired and upgrade myself, i will start doing so. i guess what i learn from repairs and upgrade is something i'll know forever. thanks for the encourgement. i was already thinking about ordering the barebones as the main spair parts bin. if you can give me a list of most common parts you go through and i'll order it. i have all the spare parts for the HBK2 but nothing for the Bh450. i did pick up the tough as nails spindle shaft when i was there. i wanted to get more spares but didn't know what to get.

Fly To Chill -> RE: just picked up my upgraded heli from ka-planes (4/29/2008 3:29:58 PM)
(NOOB) I'm like you I can fix my heli when I crash ,but I would much rather fly, If I could Affotd to have someone makes repairs I would pay to have them fixed but I cant so I do it myself and setting up a radio for the first time sucks,glad to see you got it back all setup ,make a vid of it in flight.

noobflyer01 -> RE: just picked up my upgraded heli from ka-planes (4/29/2008 3:41:04 PM)
thanks FLY to Chill. its very windy this morning. i woke at 7 and looked outside. it was horrible[:'(]. i'm not gonna chance it since i havn't flown it for a week. i can wait a day or two for better weather. i'll try again tommorrow morning. i do have a led kit i want to install for some night flying. i was on the verge of picking up the 325 led's carbon for 50 bucks. but then i thought if i crash that's 50 bucks gone. i will probably pick them up anyways but will not do anything fancy with them on. i sure did enjoy those 315 carbons before i wrecked and broke them.

gpach -> RE: just picked up my upgraded heli from ka-planes (4/29/2008 7:12:26 PM)
Hey noob, you should post this over on the Blackhawk forum. I bet there would be a lot of interest over there. By reading the forum title you cant even tell what model of heli it is. Kinda just sounds like a commercial for KA planes.......Much like your other thread about your "new heli from KA planes" sounds like a commercial for them as well. At least put the model/name in the title![:D]

noobflyer01 -> RE: just picked up my upgraded heli from ka-planes (4/30/2008 2:51:46 AM)
tonight i'm gonna install the led's on my blackhawk and make a vid of it after complettion..[:D]

noobflyer01 -> RE: just picked up my upgraded heli from ka-planes (4/30/2008 4:57:16 AM)
here's the led installed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=geMgcIxIj6g

noobflyer01 -> RE: just picked up my upgraded heli from ka-planes (4/30/2008 6:07:02 AM)
here's a vid of first hover after upgrade. tail is locked solid. takes 5 second for gyro to initalize. no tail creep whatsoever. from zero throttle to 3/4 stick tail stays put. now i know what a good gyro means. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TvpxjeD5Qms

noobflyer01 -> RE: just picked up my upgraded heli from ka-planes (4/30/2008 3:13:15 PM)
wow.[X(]. the blackhawk 450 flys so smooth. crisp controls but not twitchy. took it to the park this morning. have a vid and will post tonight. i am very happy indeed.[:D][:D][:D]

Kelownan -> RE: just picked up my upgraded heli from ka-planes (5/1/2008 11:05:15 AM)
Wow im impressed [X(], Wher'd you get the light system from cos i really want a setup like that. I fly mostly in the twilight hours at the park down the road so that will be a plus. Got myself a Belt CP today [8D] and a 7ch trannie so ill have a slot for a lite system. I will be slowly upgrading it. mostly if i break things but the CF chasis will be first. Did you get the embedded Led Blades?

noobflyer01 -> RE: just picked up my upgraded heli from ka-planes (5/3/2008 5:14:16 AM)
i was thinking about the embedded led carbons but they're 50 bucks. thats 50 bucks gone in a crash so i'm gonna wait a little.[:D] i'm gonna buy them anyways[:D] i got the leds at my LHS. i have 2 leds kit. i'm waiting for good weather to fly my blackhawk. she sure is a beauty[:D]

Kelownan -> RE: just picked up my upgraded heli from ka-planes (5/4/2008 4:10:43 AM)
Excuse my ignorance but LHS?

noobflyer01 -> RE: just picked up my upgraded heli from ka-planes (5/4/2008 4:30:19 AM)
Local hobby store. try google and it should be easy to find.

Kelownan -> RE: just picked up my upgraded heli from ka-planes (5/4/2008 4:41:35 AM)
Ah you mean mikes site? Ka planes.com? Well that would be local for you [)] i get stuff there. Just read the Thread on the Belt cp stock esc problem, a bunch have caught on fire so im taking some precautions untili can replace it with a deacent ESC, What one did you get for the black hawk? that thing looks awsome! [:D] Been practicing some pirrouettes today cos it was soooooo still. I like Winter for that reason. except for the numb hands and loss of daylight

nuttcaze -> RE: just picked up my upgraded heli from ka-planes (5/4/2008 6:11:20 AM)
yep, stock esc's do catch fire on the Belt CP, happened to mine.

noobflyer01 -> RE: just picked up my upgraded heli from ka-planes (5/4/2008 12:50:32 PM)
ka-planes is an hour away from me. i have another store near me that i go to for tools and supplys. i get my spare parts from kaplanes. the BH450 still have stock motor and esc. thinking about the waypoint 35a esc or castle creations 35a.
