Default RE: BIG LAMA

Here's a trick for INCREASING CYCLIC RESPONSE on the BIG LAMA. Takes less than 5 minutes, cost nothing.

Remove the brass counter weights from the flybar, but keep the rubber boots attached. The lighter weight flybar reacts 10 times faster than the weighted flybar, at a slight loss in stability (NOT RECOMMENDED FOR NOOBIES).

I've been able to do "CRACK ROLLS" with my BIG LAMA, without stalling the head, or causing it to stall out in high banked turns.

My next "cheapy mod" replaces the rubbers on the flybar with small flybar paddles, I just need a new flybar to mod, and it seems NOBODY has parts in stock (a worldwide Big LAMA parts shortage)[:@]!
