Other then littel tidbits that I get from heli mags I'm tring to find out how to fly without flybars and no stabilizing systems.
I read in RC Heli a little side note about using very soft dampners if you want to fly scale.
I have no interest in 3D stuff. I want onboard video and do virtual flying. If what I understand about disc loading is correct, there must be ways to change blade with and length to enhance longer flights and greater payloads.
I think that a gaser will do a good job to start. I wonder if a quad rotor head needs a stabilizer system and what is a good book to get to become enlightened?

OK...soft dampeners...heavy blades...cool
Does the v-bar us an electronic stabilizer systems?....What Im trying to do right now is to make my X-450se,v2 fly longer,no flybar & more payload.
Am I right to assume that a shorter,but wider blade will result in the same lift? and that with 4 blade roter you could have a shorter tail boom because you could use shorter rotor blades?
Thats enough for now but I have more questions so if anyone can pass me on to The site heli wizard pleas do so.

is there such a thing as waterproff heli's ??????

I have yet to find an electronic item that is truly "waterproof". They can be made water resistant, but not waterproof. If you want to know how, I can share that.
Sadly though, no info on 4 blade setups. Later.

Yea, Heavy blades, lower rotor rpm, halve the travel of the swash than it would be on a flybar system and make sure phasing is correct.
I have a 3 blade system that flies fine without the aid of stablising systems, so it is totally doable
