RE: Deans Connector

RE: Heli wobbles during flight

Update. I replaced the new flybar paddles with the old, larger ones and now I'm finding it much easier to get into a hover and stay there but it's still wobbling in flight.

I realize that the...

RE: Heli wobbles during flight

It wobbles no mater what my head speed is. Looking straight down on the rotor head I can see a wobble movement even with the new main shaft. It goes away at higher head speeds though. Here's the...

RE: Heli wobbles during flight

It's still wobbling [&o]

I'll check to see if anything else needs an adjustment and I'll shoot some video in front of a gauge to see if I can detect where the wobble is coming from.

RE: Heli wobbles during flight

*Raises hand* :D

By "self-correction" I'm referring to leaving the blades just loose enough in the grips to allow for centrifugal force to pull the blades out and straight on throttle up. And...

DanMN, I have my blades loose enough to allow for self correction on spin-up.

GuitarPlayer, I balanced my blades and paddles before I attached them and I used a digital caliper to adjust the...

Thanks for all the speedy replies. I took off the main shaft today and noticed that it was bent right where it meets the rotor hub. I also noticed that the main drive gear is torqued. I've ordered...

Heli wobbles during flight

I have a Falcon 40 heli which I've been using for flight practice and I'm having a problem. The heli has developed a terrible wobble motion which can be observed as soon as any throttle is applied. I...

RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.

RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.

Start low, around an 18 tooth pinion with that high of a kV motor. Then, see if you like the feel of it and then gear up or down as you feel to be necessary.

RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.

Can someone please help me with that (see post #10292).



Yes Joe, the Deans make a huge difference and you can use them down the road if you go brushless. Tamiyas are rated for 15 amps...

RE: cheap lipo

I have a 7.4V 6000 mAh Max Amps pack for my Mamba set up. It flies down my street. :D
I would guess that my top speed was 55 or 60 MPH in my Evader ST.

Definitely spend the money on a Max Amps...

RE: Li-Po Charger/Batt Questions

Yes, you need a balancer! Always balance when you charge!

I would suggest a 5000-6000 mAh 2S 7.4V LiPo from Max Amps (less mAh if you're on a buget).
Good luck soldering the Deans.

RE: Water proofing LiPo batteries

RE: What's a good on-road chassis?

I don't know but I think they do. I've seen Hot Bodies parts there before. I don't think parts availability will be an issue.

My plan is to put a 5000 kV Novak motor into the Cyclone with a 2S...
