A general and probably silly question about flybarless..





Would it be even remotely possible for a flybarless Heli to fly without using a FBL unit.. IE, just servo mounted directly to the swashplate.





I am assuming the swash still uses the basic 120 degree arrangement?





Or would it be so ridiculously unstable that no human could hope to fly it?

Hi Rob,

From what I understand the cyclic extremely responsive and hard to control but just about manageable. You would think the bigger the bird the greater chance of success. I think the starting point is the 120 degree swash and mixing.

You're the man to try this - after all you are an organic flight stabilisation unit!

Yes,I will definately try it now.. should have just googled it.... check these vids.. FBL head with no flybarless unit...
