I know of a few other who purchased that bird and are happy with it (one even bought two of 'em!)

RE: New Honey Bee FP V2

During the winter, I was only flying over the weekend, so about 6-10 battery packs (@ 5mins each, so about 30-50 minutes a week).

Now that I have some light when I get home from work (yeah!), I...

RE: New Honey Bee FP V2

++1 to that. I was very nervous when I first started flying my 450, but I'ved calmed down with more stick time. You'll get there!

Careful what you wish for! :)




If you don't have enough tail to keep up with the torque from the main motor, AND you've done all that you can to squeeze out everything from the tail (as you...

RE: New Honey Bee FP V2

Hmm, I know the theory behind the converted (take a PWM motor signal and convert it back into servo signal). The ones you have may not be converting it back into the full "throw" for the servo (just...

RE: New Honey Bee FP V2

_They_ are out of stock, what a shock! :) (have they gotten better, when I used to look before, it seems like they where always out of stock on most things).

Could you plug the BL controller into...

RE: New Honey Bee FP V2

It would be the overpriced Walkera motor. Where do you usually get yours (and how much do you pay?)

Sorry about the converter. I guess it really is plug and play. You've plugged it in, and now you...

RE: New Honey Bee FP V2

Sorry about the problems, but keep at it! Remember, it's all about the journey.

Looks like UsHobbySupply has the stock motor in stock, but no the Xtreme brushed upgrade

RE: New Honey Bee FP V2

I think you're right. I'll have to double check what he said (and his link). He did get one with an inferior chipset. FP vs. CP, yeah there's a difference! :) First time I spooled up the Trex, I...

RE: New Honey Bee FP V2

Have you tried a sheet of paper? Run a strip of paper in between the gears, and mash the gears together with the paper in between. That's usually about right.
