HELLO EVERYBODY :
haven't been heard of b'coz not been doing much of anything.
But, I am beginning to muck about with the HBK2 and it brings up 2 questions for my B.O.Experts !
-------------------------------------
It seems it needs to be brought up to balance (nose to tail ) with some extra weight.? for this I have used 2 quarters + 1 nickel and a touch of RC56 to anchor them attached to the bottom front end of the canopy...
The weight of the coins is : 16.25 GRAMS ... OR.......-- " .573 oz
Does this sound normal/acceptable to everybody ?>
--------------------------------------
The second time I connected the Battery (ESKY 3cell 1000 mAh standard w/the heli) the green light flickered On and then turned off...? Have I burned up something ?
or does this charger require that the battery be exhausted before it will stay with the charge ?
-------------------------------------
CRASH-CRASH.....[
]...are you REALLY flying INVERTED in the GARAGE ????? .......did you REALLY REALLY manage it before getting good at NOSE-IN ?
if you ARE (really ! ) then I begin to feel that I am a troglodite caveman, when it comes to flying helicopters. I am barely out of hovering YET ......SHEEEEESHHHHH guys :
you know how to mortify an older person......[sm=confused_smile.gif] ........ or is this another one of those "look at my CX-2 flying inverted over my pool table" which we ALL remember ?
#1. Weight...yes, the HBKII is terrible tail heavy...you got it.
#2. Flash green.....yes, this indicates momentary trickle after your charger decides what the status of your battery is....completely normal.
#3. Inverted flight in garage....don't sell yourself short so quickly. I held it inverted in my hand, spooled it, hit the idle up switch and went lowstick to see if I could get it to hover up side down. After messing with the trims...yes, it hoverd inverted out of my hand for a few seconds which verifed many things for me of which #1 is, I'm NOT ready for inverted anything (LOL).
