I cut a G-10 ring for my Futaba 9z, to try out, so far I like the way it flies with it. Has anyone else tried using this.

2 things really.

If you ever noticed how much of a bind your swashplate could get in the corners (full right, full back) This prevents it.

Also, For some manuvers like chaos, piro loops, piro tic tocs it will make the cyclic control smoother because you will not be banging into the corners.

I don't get it.

Why not SOLVE this with ATV??????

Re: What about...
 

Because you still have to contend with the fact that you stick moves in a box shape pattern. Plus with the ring pirouetting maneuvers are much smoother and easier to preform.

Don't be to alarmed guys. Curtis uses one himself. For the exact same reasons as was mentioned by FuryFyer2. I know because I took a good look at his radio at a funfly recently. If it works for him. I am sure it would work for everyone else. :D To bad the one Furyflyer made is not for a JR. Otherwise I might be temptred to get one myself.

cyclic limiter rings
 

I bought a couple for my 8103's from Mike Fendley. I think it's
a great tool to prevent binding , thus increasing the life of your servo's , etc.

Mike was selling them for $2.50 or so each!

Re: cyclic limiter rings
 

What are they made out of and how do they attach ?

cyclic rings
 

They are CNC routered out of g-10 (fiberglass). They attach by using double sided sticky tape, not as secure as screwing it down but it doesn't appear to be a problem as long as you use good quality tape.

I did however have to open the ID up though. The stock ID was a little small.

Can't complain for $2.50 :+)

Just so you know G-10 is not fiberglass.

Oh I'm sorry Fiber Glass is fiber glass G-10 is G-10? When you ask for G-10 you don't ask for Fiberglass. :confused:

G-10/FR-4 is a thermosetting industrial laminate consisting of a continuous filament glass cloth material with an epoxy resin binder. This product, first introduced in the 1950's, has characteristics of high strength, excellent electrical properties and chemical resistance. These properties are maintained not only at room temperature but also under humid or moist conditions.

Really?

Paul,

I worked at Owens Corning Fiberglas as an engineer in the composites group. I kind of know about this stuff.

G-10 is made of fiberglass cloth laminated with resin. G-10 and fiberglass board are usually used interchangeable and are the same thing.

G-10 is what is commonly used in circuit boards and when you buy raw fiberglass cloth board it's usually referred to G-10. It's more of a brand thing like a lot of people refer to vacuum cleaners as Hoovers.

He says his are made from G-10 (fiberglass). I don't see a problem with that. He's just specifing the material, ,fiberglass, that it is made of.

OK
 

I bought one and I bought a cheep 2 dollar one.
The 2 dollar one broke and splitters. The G-10 has been great in the cold and harsh eliminates//
