Default RE: Head Locking Gyro

Mrasmm,
Been busy, you know, house, work and stuff.

Danieldwrek,

If you'r not doing any 3D manuevers yet, the links posted for the "Telebee/Zoom" is a very qood gyro, it's a dual rate gyro, meaning it has Head Holding capabilities and that of a rate gyro. Just flip a switch, I'm not familiar with the LT2100 at all that Mrasmm mentioned.
As mentioned earlier, I have the zoom on my Trex, and it holds it rock solid. But, I don't do 3D stuff.

hey, choppers is back =) where ya been bud? hope life's been treating you well =)

I dunno if these cyro's are any different, but I remember back in the day when I was looking at telebee I noticed about 3 or 4 different gyro's by them that were all $60 bucks. Choppers or someone else might be able to tell you the difference, but the only differences I could find were the weight. This one weighs in at 6g, so it might also be worth looking at.

if you wanted to go with the bit better quality and the g90, you might also look at the LT2100 that's a really nice gyro, infact most reviews I've seen compare it pretty equally to the gy401, but it has more features, like you can adjust the limit in each direction and there are LED's that tell you what is going on with the gyro instead of just one LED. It's about 100 bucks shipped.
