RE: .........

$199.99 before shipping.

RE: .........

The first time my brother and I launched our model rockets when I was a kid, we took our two identical "sounding rockets" (very basic, very streamlined) and put a mid-sized engine it them and...

RE: .........

Let me guess, you can't fly while on a ship, at sea - at least outside? Hopefully you have a simulator or some Air Hogs to practice with! ;)

Last October, I was able to fly the small "Silver...

You guys should try living 29 miles away from Michael (U.S. Hobby Supply) - always next day service or better! (Sometimes he even delivers the order in person too)! :D

Serously though, he...

RE: .........

Hey Joaquin! I just spent a few minutes tinkering with the modified Heading Hold Belt CP model in ClearView, to see if I could effect:

1) the sluggish throttle response

and

2) the...

RE: .........

That's interesting Joaquin, the Belt CP model certinally is much more sluggish than the HBK2 model I have in ClearView - and much easier to fly as a result. It takes nearly full throttle to get it...

RE: .........

I recently adapted the Belt CP model for ClearView to be for a HH gyro. This is pretty simple to do, just by changing the GyroGain parameter to something like 77.5 in the model's parameters.txt...

RE: .........

A couple of years ago, I had the same type of balance problems with my stock HBK2, and got flamed a lot in this forum for doing what Ron suggested - adding nose weight to make it balance. Despite...

RE: .........

Make sure you don't get any extra twists in the new belt when you put the tail boom back together. It is possible to do that so it looks like everything is moving the right direction, but if there...

Just ordered this - thanks for the link Ron!

Still have a lot of set up to do (new Rx, HH gyro, tail servo, and Tx configuration), before the Belt will be ready for a first flight...

No tumble weeds here, just about 3 feet of snow on the ground, and a cold, mean wind in the air too. No way to do anything but fly the 3 inch (Air Hogs like, but actually very manuverable in tight...

RE: USHS HBKv3 Tuner Thread

Yeah, nothing can humble you faster and cheaper than a flight sim! I figure that until you can keep the sim helicopter up and stable for several minutes, you shouldn't be trying to fly in real life...

RE: USHS HBKv3 Tuner Thread

I strongly suggest not wasting your time with FMS, especially when their are other very low cost flight simulator programs like ClearView ( http://rcflightsim.com/download.html ) that work much...

RE: .........

For my HBK2 I stick a yard-stick under the landing skids, to hold the bird down while aligning the blades. Probably need something bigger, that I'm not holding down by hand, for the Belp CP.

RE: .........

If I understand your question correctly, the tail rotor is supposed to have enough pitch on it so it will keep the helicopter tail mostly not moving right or left when your rudder control is...

RE: Honeybee King v2 tuner shop

I read somewhere that the AR6100 Rx was for shorter range "line of sight" flying of "park fliers" and the AR6200 was for longer range control of bigger aircraft. The theory of the dual receivers in...

RE: honey bee king 2 won't lift?

Hi Ralph!

My main gear is pretty symetrical, so I'm not sure what you mean about putting it in upside down? This is not something to worry about, you need it to work! The one-way bearing must...

RE: honey bee king 2 won't lift?

This would normally sound like you just had the motor running in the wrong direction - a common situation when you first install a new brushless motor (to reverse it, swap any two of the wires to the...

RE: Honeybee King v2 tuner shop

The rings should fit the ball links snuggly, so they won't pop off. Did you get the Xtreme ESK002 turnbuckle set - made for the HBK2? Did you replace you swash with one that has different sized...
