Default RE: Walkera 22E Lets Talk

Xtreme,

The first few minutes of my pack I drift one way and then I have to adjust it again and it holds till near the last two minutes of the battery pack.

Since I never get near the end of the pack before I have to stop (tail motor burnout problem) I end up only adjusting it once after the first two minutes.

The darn solder points on the tail motor may need to be re-soldered if its shutting off and on.

I never upgraded my 22E beyond battery and brushless because once you start going to separates and alum head and tail you should be saving for a Trex.

The 22E fly's pretty cool out of the box and I have one that is still stock motor and battery and it flys fine just not explosive lift.

Its Ok (not great) for learning on (and small areas) but once you try to turn it into a trick heli, you end up with something expensive that does not perform like an expensive heli. Its a great introduction to heli flight but a trex would be easier to learn on.

My 22E with the brushless is more fun but still limited by the tail motor burn problem.
