RE: New Here, maybe some advice??

This Heli will never just hang in a hover, for more a few seconds at a time. It requires constant input, just like balancing a broom stick on the tip of your finger. Once you develop a feel for it,...

RE: HBK2 no lift off

You sure can.... The blades need to be nearly perfectly matched (weight wise) & aerodynamically true. You can do some minor patching using tape. But the tape needs to be applied W/ care to ensure...

To be clear I have a king, not the belt-cp. But I believe the two to be the same when it comes to pitch Vs throttle

RE: HBK2 Problems

By that, I mean the rod running from the rudder servo to the tail rotor control lever.
This rod passes through two boom mounted clips. These clips tend to be a source of binding, and aren't really...

Some have had troubles W/ the 3100 motor spooling up smoothly. You'll probably find more people running the 3900 motor, than anything else.

If the servos are moving then you don't have crystal issues.

RE: HBK2 Problems

Make sure your throttle & throttle trim are all the way down. Always turn on the transmitter before powering up the heli.

RE: HBK2 & Dx6i Settings, I'm Close

Yes, Definitely have watched his videos. And definitely a "must see". The departure from the original "linear" curves was deliberate. (which is why radios W/ 5 points curves are considered superior)...

Nice explanation/write up.
For others who may find this thread, it will surely remove some of the mystery behind how these parameters affect the behavior of the base settings.

RE: HBK2 & Dx6i Settings, I'm Close

They are all +60
The Sign (+/-) you need is dependant on how you've got your servo reversing configured, and how your servo actually moves W/ respect to that sign.
So if your servos are moving in...

RE: HBK2 Upgrades Bang for the Buck???

IMO, If you want to keep the king's current rotor configuration, using Belt-CP stock plastic on the blade grips and flybar, and CNC for swash & washout yield a good blend of performance, reliability,...

RE: Problem Installing Xtreme 43T Tail Drive Pulley on HBK2

You only need to fool W/ the left side idler pulley. The right side bearing can be left in stock configuration.
What they want you to do is remove the idler screw. Throw the flat washer...

RE: New Esky servo EK2-0500 or EK2-0508 ?

If electrical, probably best to just replace it. On the other hand if it's a stripped gear. Replacement gear sets (EK2-0500C) can be had for ~$2.50US. Also if a stripped...

RE: Vertical Take off...

Sounds like your C.G. is off. If you're running the stock 1000mah battery (HBK2), it really has to be positioned as far forward as you can get it. I would put a foam spacer behind mine & it would...

RE: Head hold gyro won't hold...why?
