RE: Blade 400 and Wind...

RE: Blade 400 and Wind...

The bigger heavier nitro heli would yes be able to withstand higher winds (to a point). A bigger rotor disk manipulating more air always wins. A nitro motor also provides excellent power and in my...

RE: Blade 400 and Wind...

Standing on a basketball I like that. I guess nose in hovering would be standing on the basketball with rollerblades then. Anyways Head speed is the key. The Blade 400 actually flys great in wind...

RE: Blade 400 - Tips, tricks, and mods

RE: Blade 400 - Tips, tricks, and mods

I beleive the Trex grips will go on since the feathering shafts are the same diameter. However the trex feathering shafts are longer than the blade's. You might have to experiment with both shafts...

RE: Blade 400 - Tips, tricks, and mods

Thats not good. I once in a while put a small amount of oil on the rear of the motor shaft and on the pinion to try keeping it smooth. Ive had an Eflite Park 480 outrunner for about three years now....

RE: blade 400 servo failure

I think the Eflite servos pretty much serve their surpose to hover and a little beyond. Once into forward flight and a little hard turning, It wold be nice to treat the little blade to a servo...

RE: blade 400 servo failure

Dont worry the Blade is fine and still cheaper than a kit with or without upgraded servos. People change and upgrade parts on ALL helis. What fun would they be if you couldnt. I have Hitec HS-65MG...

RE: Blade 400 - Tips, tricks, and mods

RE: Blade 400 - Tips, tricks, and mods

I think the ticking your talking about is just the machine working and turning. I think Ive heard mine do it also when I spin the rotor by hand. Similar to a bicycle turning freely. Thats not bad...

RE: E-flite Taylorcraft

Not sure if you done this already but, try adding some expo on the elevator. It makes the servo a little less sensitive and that helps alot too.

RE: T-Rex 500 vs Blade 400
