RE: Replace main motor on Walkera 4#3B, How to Video

Kronium,
I call it a "head cam" since it's just my digital camera attached to my head with rubber bands! I tied 5 rubber bands together end to end. Then I put my small digital camera against my...

RE: WALKERA 4#3B 2.4Ghz Metal Upgraded Edition Helicopter

Yeah, my gyro causes st.st.st.stutter going CCW. Not sure why. :eek: Sometimes I can pull off nice CCW coordinated circles. But the CW circles always look better!

Replace main motor on Walkera 4#3B, How to Video

If you've never done it before, here's a short video I made on how to replace the main motor on a Walkera 4#3B. It's not that hard, but it's very small!

RE: Walkera 4#3 b questions

I've only been flying the 4#3 for a few weeks, but I'll answer your question based on my experience. I have two other single rotor helis (Walkera 4#1 and Blade 400) so I don't have any experience...

Thanks Gary. You would have given me 10 rotor blades and my wife would have given me a frying pan upside the head! [X(]

RE: Walkera #4 Fixed Pitch Helicopter Forum

Just thought I'd follow up about the Honeybee FP that I bought. For me, it's a perfectly good replacement for the 4#1 and spare parts are much more plentiful. There are some things in the head design...

RE: WALKERA 4#3B 2.4Ghz Metal Upgraded Edition Helicopter

This morning was perfectly calm so I took the 4#3B outside for a couple flights. Lots of fun! More room means more speed. [sm=shades_smile.gif] But I've got to watch the distance I let it get away...

RE: WALKERA 4#3B 2.4Ghz Metal Upgraded Edition Helicopter

Yes, speed is good! But so are main blades that are in one piece. And I've noticed that the faster I go around my living room, the greater the chance of crashing in my wood burning stove and busting...

RE: WALKERA 4#3B 2.4Ghz Metal Upgraded Edition Helicopter

I love being able to sit down and fly my heli! I can't (or don't dare) do that with my bigger helis. Here's a short video of me flying in my living room.

No laughing here. Whatever it takes to get in the air! As someone once told me, it's all about stick time.

RE: WALKERA 4#3B 2.4Ghz Metal Upgraded Edition Helicopter

Hans,
Are there any other (cheaper) servos you have tried? I've seen the Walkera servos for about $10. Just wondering if anyone has tried any others?

RE: WALKERA 4#3B 2.4Ghz Metal Upgraded Edition Helicopter

Thanks for the tip about the blade shims Ted.

I've probably got about 20 flights and haven't broken anything yet. I bought a spare main motor, tail motor, and landing gear, but haven't had to...

If you find the rotor head on eBay, can you post a link? I wasn't able to find any for the newest version head that I'm running. And my heli is a dog in forward flight unless it is...

RE: Walkera #4 Fixed Pitch Helicopter Forum

I think the 4#1 is now obsolete. Nobody is stocking the rotor heads anymore. I decided I don't want the metal head upgrade because of weight. My current plan is to buy an "airframe only" Honeybee FP...
