Hi All,

First, my apologies to anyone who doesn't like seeing really old threads returned. It was around 2005 when I last posted, and after the controversy of the 32mm chord clip, I wandered off...

RE: how to fix night ranger 2

NR2 is a Walkera #4. Usually one of the older versions.

Anyway, you just unclip the rotor head (pulls off) after you remove the linkages (snap out, but be careful).

Then there are two grub...

RE: FMS cable and settings - how I did it!

DF04 is Serial, not PPM.

You need to make the serial cable for the DF4, and use PPJOY and FMS.

Details are in the Walkera 4 thread :)

RE: Multi bladed micro helis!!

It's hard to tell from the picture, but I don't see any reason to beleive it's not at least 4 channel. Looks like a flybarless head and shaft-driven tail.

RE: Walkera #4 Fixed Pitch Helicopter Forum

Hi Stableblade.



The Gyro is usually pretty good, but it's not heading-lock. It's just a rate gyro. Trim it in and use the stick to correct by eye.



You can balance the blades to...

RE: Best FP - That's Stable in light wind

Hi J-Cube.

You have a good point there. I'd never fly my CP models inside. They just have too much energy in the blades and can do some serious damage. And when you're walking your heli around...

RE: 1st wreck and a lesson learned.

Hi Zeebadoo.

FMS is fine to learn to hover on... And it's free. I wouldn't recommend buying an expensive sim to learn to hover - when FMS is fine.

Of course, if you want to learn more...

Make sure you check the results frequently.

RE: Best FP - That's Stable in light wind

The biggest issues for a FP heli in light wind are;

1. Headspeed and
2. Weight. (Mass).

The lighter the weight (especially in relation to surface area) the more it will be blown around by...

RE: Best for a beginner under $300

Hi Tzero,

The Venom Night Ranger II is pretty good. It's a Walkera 4. But it's not going to do 3D.

If you're serious about 3D, then you might want to get something like the #4 (Even though...

RE: 3 cell LiPo ok for Walkera #4???

I've run a 3S on a W4. Did it for 3 or 4 tail motor changes.

They have a lot of power. No mods, just stock, blade chord clip and a 3S 1200mAH LiPo.

But I prefer the 7.4v LiPo (2S) now....

RE: thrust

Hi nitro4tectroy77,

I take it you mean the servo's go, but there's no motor activity?

If so, perhaps the throttle is too high? You may need to set trim low to get the throttle to engage.

RE: WALKERA4 NAO FLIES - ONLY 3CM

Hi Scratchbuild.

If a 7.4 LiPo works and an 8.6 NiMH doesn't, then the battery is no good.

Simple. :)

Hi Matt.

At 11.1v, the smaller FP models can exceed their enveloped. As you increase the payload a lot, you need so much main rotor power that the models become unstable. Sure, they still fly...

Anyway, the T-Rex blades are too big for it. They'll hit the tail rotor without extending the tail.

RE: Beginner chopper

Tail motors die quickly but are much easier to set up and maintain as a beginner than a driven tail.

The 22E is pretty agile though, and probably isn't for beginners.
